The table shows information on the conditions of demand for ordinary gummy bears and their sugar-free version. Regular Gummy Bears Demanded (thousands of kg) 485.00 379.00 273.00 155.00 Price ($ per kg) $2.20 $2.60 $3 $3.40 Sugar-free Gummy Bears Demanded (thousands of kg) 181.00 175.00 157 137.00 As the price of gummy bears rises from $2.60 to $3, what are the price elasticities of demand of sugar-free gummy bears and of ordinary gummy bears? Use the midpoint method and specify answers to one decimal place. Elasticity of demand of sugar-free gummy bears: Elasticity of demand of regular gummy bears:

According to data from the U.S. Department of Energy, sales of the fuel-efficient Toyota Prius hybrid fell from 194,108 vehicles sold in 2014 to 180,603 in 2015. Over the same period, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the average price of regular gasoline fell from $3.36 to $2.43 per gallon. Using the midpoint method, calculate the cross-price elasticity of demand between Toyota Priuses and regular gasoline. According to your estimate of the cross-price elasticity, are the two goods complements or substitutes? Does your answer make sense?

Melanie really enjoys using her old-school charcoal grill to cook steaks, but she has found that due to environmental regulations, charcoal prices have gone up 50%. What is her price elasticity of demand for the rest of this month going to be compared to what it will be in the spring? Please explain why.

The demand for ceiling fans can be modeled as D(p) = 25.02(0.992) thousand ceiling fans where p is the price (in dollars) of a ceiling fan. (a) Locate the point of unit elasticity. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) The point of elasticity occurs when p = $ and D(p) = thousand ceiling fans. (b) For what prices is demand elastic? For what prices is demand inelastic? (Round your numerical answers to two decimal places.) Demand is inelastic for < p < Demand is elastic for p ? ✓

What might you infer about the price elasticity of demand for diesel fuel in the short run? In the long run?

Suppose the accompanying table contains data on how many Veggie Delite sandwiches Subway is willing to sell each day at two different prices. Calculate the daily price elasticity of supply when the price increases from $5.00 to $7.50. Please round to the nearest hundredth. Price(per sandwich) Quantity supplied(sandwiches per day) $5.00 200,000 $7.50 210,000 a. Daily price elasticity of supply for Veggie Delite sandwiches = b. The daily price elasticity of supply for Veggie Delite sandwiches is relatively Elastic or Inelastic Now consider how responsive Subway’s supply of Veggie Delite sandwiches is to changes in price on an annual basis instead of a daily basis. c. Compared to the daily value, the annual price elasticity of supply for Veggie Delite sandwiches is likely to be more Inelastic or Elastic  and the annual supply curve is likely Flatter or Steeper  to be than the daily supply curve.

How to calculate price elasticities for demand for rice and coffee at P=6, respectively.   (1) P=12-2Q for coffee (2) P=12-3Q for rice

Suppose the own-price elasticity of demand for beef is -0.8 and the own-price elasticity of supply of beef is 0.9. Due to a newly introduced government policy, beef supply increases by 2% with no change in the demand for beef. Assuming that the current price for beef is 40/cwt and the quantity bought and sold is 2,000 cwt per day, find the new equilibrium price and quantity of beef (round your answers to two decimal places).
