Suppose you could buy shoes one at a time, miter than in pain. What do you predict the cross-price elasticity for left shoes and right shoes would be?
Would you expect supply to play a more significant role in determining the price of a basic necessity like food or a luxury like perfume? Explain. Hint: Think about how the price elasticity of demand will differ between necessities and luxuries.

Creative Homework/Short Project Assume that you arean entrepreneur who runs a bakery that sells glutenfree breads and cakes. You believe that the currenteconomic conditions merit an increase in the price ofyour baked goods. You are concerned, however, thatincreasing the price might not be profitable becauseyou are unsure of the price elasticity of demand for yourproducts. Develop a plan for the measurement of priceelasticity of demand for your products. What findingswould lead you to increase the price? What findingswould cause you to rethink the decision to increaseprices? Develop a presentation for your class outlining(1) the concept of elasticity of demand, (2) why raisingprices without understanding the elasticity would bea bad move, (3) your recommendations for measurement, and (4) the potential impact on profits for elasticand inelastic demand
