Research on the admission fees to national parks has found that the price elasticity of demand for annual visits to Arches National Park is 0.2. The National Park Service is now considering a 10-percent increase in the admission fee. a) What will happen to the number of annual visits to Arches National Park? Solve for a numerical answer. b) Will the revenues that the park collects increase or decrease? Briefly explain.

The following graph gives two points (A and B) along a hypothetical demand curve for tofu. PRICE (Dollars per pound) 12 11 10 9 8 5 3 2 1 0 0 I 10 B A Demand 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 QUANTITY (Thousands of pounds of tofu) ? Using the midpoint method, the price elasticity of demand for tofu between point A and point B is approximately tofu is between points A and B. This indicates that demand for

Suppose the government imposes a $3 excise tax on the sale of sweaters in Alaska by charging suppliers $3 for each sweater sold. Using economic analysis, we would predict that: the price of sweaters will increase but by less than $3 consumers of sweaters will bear the entire amount of the tax the price of sweaters will decrease by $3 the price of sweaters will increase by $3 From the lecture video on elasticity, suppose a surfboard producer was considering lowering the price of surfboards in order to increase total revenues. Under what conditions would this idea work?) Always, because when producers lower price, consumption increases. This is the Law of Demand. When the elasticity of demand is inelastic. When the elasticity of demand is elastic. When the elasticity of demand is -0.58.

Two drivers – Tom and Jerry – each drive up to a gas station. Without looking at the price of gas, each one places an order with the pump attendant. Tom says, “I’d like 10 gallons of gas.” Jerry says, “I’d like $10 of gas.” What is each driver’s price-elasticity of demand for gas (give the Ed-value for each)?

Use the following demand curve for hamburgers: QD = 1,650 – 50PHB +100PHD + 6INC where QD is quantity demanded for hamburgers, PHB is price of a hamburger, PHD is price of a hot dog, and INC is consumer income. Let PHB = 5, PHD = 10, and INC=100. What is income elasticity of demand for of hamburgers?    Note:- Don't use pen or paper and chatgpt

In order to reduce farm output, raise farm prices, and thus raise farm incomes (revenues), the government pays farmers to set aside a portion of their land from production. Using a graph, explain in terms of the elasticity of demand for farm products why farmers may be better-off when harvests are low even if we ignore the money they receive from the set-aside program.

Consider the following excerpt: "Steve Cannon, CEO of the AMB Group, Blank's holding company, told ESPN that although food and beverage prices ere 50 percent lower in its new Mercedes-Benz Stadium than the prices in the Georgia Dome the previous year, fans spent 16 percent more." If there has been no change in the demand for concessions at football games, which of the following is true? Oa. Demand for concessions is always elastic b. At the initial prices, demand was inelastic. Oc. The demand curve for concessions slopes upwards Od. Concessions are an inferior good

4-6 Suppose that the price of croissants rises from $2 to $3 per unit. Use the mid-point approach to get the elasticity. The quantity of orange juice purchased falls from 10 million bottles to 5 million bottles. What is the cross-price elasticity of demand between croissants and orange juice? Are they complements or substitutes? The quantity of jelly purchased increases from 10 million jars to 20 million jars. What is What is the cross-price elasticity of demand between croissants and orange juice? Are they complements or substitutes?

The textbook discusses several things that determine how price elastic the supply of a good or service is. These are known as the determinants of the price elasticity of supply. Changes in these determinants can cause the elasticity of supply to change. The figure below shows a supply curve that starts out perfectly inelastic at S, and then becomes more elastic as it moves to S,, and then to S3. Which of the determinants of the elasticity of supply could this graph be representing? S. Price Quantity Determinant Represented by the Graph Drag appropriate answer(s) here time and the adjustment process %23 the flexibility of buyers change in income the flexibility of producers Drag appropriate answer(s) here Not a Determinant Represented by the Graph

In the graph on the right, the demand for hot dog buns has changed because the price of hot dogs has risen from $2.80 to $3.30 per package.
