QUESTION 7 To mark national burger day there is a nationwide 50% sale on burgers during May. A recent survey, of those who bought burgers at supermarkets and food trucks, found that 99% of people will only eat burgers in a bun. Which of the following statements are true: The decrease in the price of burgers during May will cause a decrease in the quantity demanded of burgers. The decrease in the price of burgers in May will cause an increase in both demand and quantity demanded for buns. The decrease in the price of burgers in May will only result in an increase in the quantity demanded for buns. Economic theory is unable to predict if there would be any shift in demand for buns with the discount on burgers in May.

Demand and supply often shift in the retail market for gasoline. Here are two demand curves and two supply curves for gallons of gasoline in the month of May in a small town in Maine. Some of the data are missing.Using the table, answer the following questions: Quantities Demanded Quantities Supplied Price D1 D2 S1 S2 $7.00 5,000 7,500 9,000 9,500 6,000 8,000 8,000 9,000 5.00 8,500 8,500 9,000 5,000 Use the following facts to fill in the missing data in the table. If demand is D1 and supply is S1, the equilibrium quantity is 7,000 gallons per month. When demand is D2 and supply is S1, the equilibrium price is $6.00 per gallon. When demand is D2 and supply is S1, there is an excess demand of 4,000 gallons per month at a price of $4.00 per gallon. If demand is D1 and supply is S2, the equilibrium quantity is 8,000 gallons per month. b. Compare the two equilibriums: In the first,…
Please help with these economics questions. Thank you! Belikin beer has lost customers to Presidente because of its lower price. Before Presidente beer entered Belize’s market, Bowen and Bowen sold Belikin beer for $3.75 and the quantity supplied was fifty thousand (50,000) bottles of beer a month. One year after Presidente entered the market, the price fell to $3.25, and the quantity supplied fell to forty-five thousand (45,000) beer bottles. a. Calculate Price Elasticity of Supply. b. Is supply price elastic or inelastic? How do you know? c. Sketch the supply curve for Belikin beer. Briefly discuss its slope.
Question Earlier this year, 2021, the price of chicken meat rose unexpectedly reached to 250/ kilo at peak from the previous price of 170/ kilo. This 68% increase of price per kilo was primarily caused by excess demand for chicken meat. This is the result of the decrease in consumption for pork meat due to the threat of African Swine Flu (ASF). However, even though consumer shifted preferences, the increase in the price of chicken was perceived to be too high for the budget of consumers. Therefore, sellers realized decrease in their daily aggregate sales from 1,000 kilos to 700 kilos. 1. Illustrate the change in the market equilibrium through a graph. 2. What presumably happened to the total revenues of the sellers during the price hike period? a.) Compute the price elasticity of demand b.) Derive the total revenue before the hike (TR1), and after the hike (TR2).
What is the percent increase in quantity demanded?
3. Last month, sellers of Good F sold 400 units and collected revenue of $8,000. This month sellers of Good F raised their price, sold 375 units and received $9,000 of revenue. At the same time, the price of Good G stayed the same, but sales of Good G fell from 210 units to 190 units. We can conclude that Goods F and G are substitutes, and have a cross-price elasticity of 0.55. are substitutes, and have a cross-price elasticity of 1.82. are complements, and have a cross-price elasticity of 1.82. are complements, and have a cross-price elasticity of negative 1.82. are complements, and have a cross-price elasticity of negative 0.55.

Research has found that the an increase in the price of Coca-Cola would increase quantity demanded for Pepsi. Is the cross elasticity of demand between the two products positive or negative? What does this imply about the relationship of Coca-Cola to Pepsi? In addition, research has found that the an increase in the price of hot dog buns would decrease quantity demanded for hot dogs. Is the cross elasticity of demand between the two products positive or negative? What does this imply about the relationship between hot dog buns and hot dogs? Please explain in detail your logic for both of these relationships. Also, can you think of another example of products that would behave in similar ways to Coca-Cola/Pepsi and hot dogs/ hot dog buns?
