A hotel rents rooms to customers by the night. The hotel determines that if it sets the price of the room to be $160 per night, 145 rooms will be rented. In order to rent 195 rooms, it must lower the price to $110 per night. If the hotel sets the price to be $110 per night, what is the marginal revenue? The marginal revenue is $ per room. (Round answer to nearest dollar. If more than one answer, separate with a comma.)

Homework (Ch 06) Back to Assignment Attempts Do No Harm / 1 3. Effects of rent control Rent controls force landlords to price apartments below the equilibrium price level. An immediate effect is a shortage (excess demand) of apartments, because the quantity of apartments demanded is greater than the quantity supplied at the regulated price. When cities prevent landlords from charging market rents, which of the following are common long-run outcomes? Check all that apply. O Landlords earn lower profits from renting housing units, but the rent charged has no effect on either the quantity or quality of rental units. O The future supply of rental housing units increases. O Black markets develop. O The quality of rental housing units falls.
