3. Suppose a 10% increase I price of a different product (such y), has resulted in a 30% decrease in the demand for OUR product (say, product X). What can you tell about cross elasticity of demand? (Calculate and demonstrate your answer). Are x and y substitutes or complement? Why?
1. Calculate the elasticity of demand for the demand curve p = 100-2q at each of the following price and quantity levels and determine the type of elasticity: a p = 90 and q=2 b. p = 50 and q= 10 &p=5 and q = 19 2. Suppose you are given the following information: Q³= 200 + 3P Qd = 400 - P where Q is the quantity supplied, Qis the quantity demanded and P is price. From this information compute equilibrium price and quantity. Now suppose that a tax is placed on buyers so that Qd = 400 - (2P+T) where T is taxes. IfT= 20, solve for the new equilibrium price and quantity. (Note: You are solving for the equilibrium price for sellers and buyers). hp
