Suppose a restaurant earns $4,000 per week inrevenues from hamburger sales (X) and $2,000per week from soda sales (Y). If the own priceelasticity for burgers is EgrPr = -1.5 and thecross-price elasticity of demand between sodasand hamburgers is Eoy.Px = -4.0, what wouldhappen to the firm's total revenues if it reducedthe price of hamburgers by 1 percent?

Elasticity refers to the economic measure that tells how sensitive an economic factor is to another.…

Problem Number 8 Economics: Elasticity of Demand for DVD Rentals. The demand for DVD rentals at Klix Video is given by q= D(x) = 120 - 20x, where q is the number of DVDs rented per day at x dollars per rental. Find each of the following. a) The elasticity as a function of x b) The elasticity at x = 2 and at x = c) The value of x for which E(x) = 1. Interpret the meaning of this price. d) The total-revenue function, R(x) = (x) D(x) e) The price x at which total revenue is a maximum 4. Interpret the meaning of these values of the elasticity.

Each scenario gives some information about price elasticity of demand. For each, calculate the missing data, and determine if the price change under consideration will increase, decrease, or not change the firm's total revenue. Honest Abe's Used Cars estimates the price elasticity of demand for their cars to be -4.1. Last month, Abe tried a new marketing scheme which decreased the number of cars sold by 87%. Abe must have his prices by -27.87 Abe's total revenue by increased and total revenue to increased. At Webs-R-Us, a website design company, the new manager has decided to increase the price of Webs-R-Us services by 15%. She estimates that Webs-R-Us has a price elasticity of demand at -0.30. The manager expects the number of websites designed to decrease increase. %. e %

You sell 2 different goods : printers and toner cartridges. The price elasticity of demand for the printers is -3.4, and you earn a revenue of RM 15,000 per month from the good. You earn a revenue of RM 5,000 per month from the toner cartridges. The cross price elasticity of demand for both of the goods is -2.5. If you decided to decrease the price of printers by 5%, calculate your new total revenues for both of the goods.
