A rise in the price of a crate of Pepsi from USD 20 to USD 30 results in a fall in the quantity of crate of Pepsi demanded from 220 million to 180 million a day and at today’s price of a Coca-Cola, USD 15, the quantity of Coca-Cola demanded increases from 80 million to 100 million a day.
Kindly Answer ONLY (d)
a). Calculate the percentage change in the price of a crate of Pepsi and the percentage change in the quantity demanded of Pepsi. Use the average price and average quantity.b). Calculate the price elasticity of demand for Pepsi. c). Is the demand for Pepsi elastic or inelastic? Explain please
d). Calculate and explain the cross elasticity of demand for Coca-cola with respect to the price of a Pepsi.
