You are the manager of a firm that receives revenues of $40,000 per year from product X and $90,000 per year from product Y. The own price elasticity of demand for product X is −1.5 and the cross-price elasticity of demand between products Y and X is −1.8. How much will your firm’s total revenues (revenues from both products) change if you increase the price of good X by 2 percent?

Congratulations! You have just landed your first job out of college as an economic analyst at the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Your starting salary is $55,000 per year; an increase of 250% per year over the salary you made at the local coffee shop. The corresponding table gives the percentage change in your purchases of each good after your income increases. Use this information to estimate your income elasticity of demand for each of the items.

You are a manager in charge of monitoring cash flow at a major publisher. Paper books comprise 80 percent of your revenues, which grow about 2 percent annually. You recently received a preliminary report that suggests the growth rate in ebook reading has leveled off, and that the cross-price elasticity of demand between paper books and ebooks is −0.2. In 2019, your company earned about $150 million from sales of ebooks and about $600 million from sales of paper books.    If your data analytics team estimates the own price elasticity of demand for paper books is −2.5, how will a 1 percent decrease in the price of paper books affect your overall revenues from both paper books and ebooks sales?

Suppose the own price elasticity of demand for good X is −2, its income elasticity is 3, its advertising elasticity is 4, and the cross-price elasticity of demand between it and good Y is −6. Determine how much the consumption of this good will change if:Instructions: Enter your responses as percentages. If you are entering a negative number, be sure to use a (−) sign.a. The price of good X decreases by 5 percent. percentb. The price of good Y increases by 10 percent. percentc. Advertising decreases by 2 percent. percentd. Income increases by 3 percent.  percent

You own a bakery and shop that makes and sells gourmet doggie treats. You have done market research and you know with certainty that your product is a normal good, not an inferior good. The current demand function for your gourmet doggie treats is: QD = 480 -6*P which of course means the equation for your current demand curve is: P = 80 -(1/6)*Q You are opening a new shop in a new part of town, and you know that incomes in that part of town are much lower than incomes are where your shop is now. Which of the following is most likely the demand curve in your new shop? Multiple Choice O P=68- (1/6)*Q P = 102 - (1/6)*Q P=92-(1/6)*Q P = 88 - (1/6)*Q

QUESTION 2 Replicas of popular mid-century furniture and homeware can be highly sought after by interior designers. Suppose a company sold 1000 replica Eames chairs for a price of $600 each. However, when they set the price at $750, they only sold 750. Which of the following statements are true: The point price elasticity of demand for replica Eames chairs at a price of $600 is unit elastic. At a price of $600 per chair, a 1% increase in the price of replica Eames chairs would lead to a 1% decrease in the quantity of chairs sold. The point price elasticity of demand for replica Eames chairs at a price of $600 is 0.0239 (to four decimal places). The point price elasticity of demand for replica Eames chairs at a price of $600 is 0.02 (to two decimal places).

You work in the marketing department of a major telecommunications company. You discover that demand for phone calls during business hours is inelastic, and demand for phone calls during evening hours is elastic. How could your company use this information to increase its total revenue? Fully explain your answer.

2. [Own Price Elasticity of Demand] Given a demand function Q=f(P), the own price elasticity of demand is defined as P - (de). (2). ε = What is the own price elasticity of demand e (a) for the linear demand function Q = 200-3.5P when P = 10. (b) for the linear inverse demand function P= 100-3.5Q when Q = 10. (c) for the inverse demand function P=Q-35, when (i) Q = 5; (ii) Q = 10.

suppose the demand curve for a product is given by Q=10-2P+Ps1,where P is the price of the product and Ps is the price of a substitute good. the price of the substitute good is $2.00.   a)suppose P=$1.00, what is the price elasticity of demand?what is the cross- price elasticity of demand?   b)suppose the price of the good, P, increases to $2.00. Now what is the price elasticity of demand, and what is the cross-prices elasticity of demand?
