- (Calculating Price Elasticity of Demand) Suppose that 50 units of a good are demanded at a price of Si per unit. A reduction in price to $0.20 results in an increase in quantity demanded to 70 units. Using the midpoint formula, show that these data yield a price elasticity of 0.25. By what percentage would a 10 percent rise in the price reduce the quantity demanded, assuming price elasticity remains constant along the demand curve?On Tuesday, the price and quantity demanded are 7 and 120 units, respectively. Ten days later, the price and quantity demanded are 6 and 150 units, respectively. What is the price elasticity of demand between the 7 and 6 prices?Suppose you learned that the price elasticity of demand for wheat is 0.7 between the current price for wheat and a price 2 higher per bushel. Do you think that farmers collectively would try to reduce the supply of wheat and drive the price up 2 higher per bushel? Explain your answer. Assuming that they would try to reduce supply, what problems might they have in actually doing so?
- Using the following equation for the demand for a good or service, calculate the price elasticity of demand (using the point form), cross-price elasticity with good x and income elasticity. Q=82P+0.10I+Px Q is quantity demanded, P is the product price. P1 is the price of a related good, and I is income. Assume that P= $10, I = 100, and Px = 20.If automobiles and gasoline are complements, then their cross-elasticity coefficient is a. strictly greater than 1. b. positive. c. equal to zero. d. negative.The price elasticity of demand for personal computers is estimated to be 2.2. If the price of personal computers declines by 20 percent, what will be the expected percentage increase in the quantity of computers sold?
- For each of the determinants of demand in Equation 2.1, identify an example illustrating the effect on the demand for hybrid gasoline-electric vehicles such as the Toyota Prius. Then do the same for each of the determinants of supply in Equation 2.2. In each instance, would equilibrium market price increase or decrease? Consider substitutes such as plug-in hybrids, the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Volt, and complements such as gasoline and lithium ion laptop computer batteries.Below is a graph for the market for product X for a specified time period. Calculate the price elasticity of demand for good X between points E and B. Calculate the price elasticity of demand for good X between points E and B. What type of elasticity is calculated (elastic, inelastic, or unitary)? What does this type of elasticity indicate for product X demand?Calculating the price elasticity of demand: A step-by-stepguide Suppose that during the past year, the price of a virtual reality headset rose from $4,100 to $4,550. During the same time period, consumer sales decreased from 420,000 to 313,000 headsets. Calculate the elasticity of demand between these two price–quantity combinations by using the following steps. After each step, complete the relevant part of the table with the appropriate answers. (Note: For decreases in price or quantity, enter values in the Change column with a minus sign.) Original New Average Change Percentage Change Quantity Price Step 1: Fill in the appropriate values for original quantity, new quantity, original price, and new price. Step 2: Calculate the average quantity by adding the original quantity and the new quantity, and then dividing by two. Do the same for the average price. Step 3: Calculate the change in quantity…
- The supply of coffee is QS = 2.0 + 0.2P, where quantity is in billions of pounds and price is dollars per pound. The price elasticity of demand for coffee is about -0.3, the current price is $3.00 per pound and the quantity bought and sold is 2.6 billion pounds. Based on this information, the linear demand curve for coffee is: QD = ___ - ___P A severe drought reduces the supply of coffee by 10 percent at every price. The new equilibrium price of coffee will be what? and the new equilibrium quantity will be _________ billion pounds. (Enter rounded to 2 decimal places.)i. ii. iii. Suppose the demand function for a product is given by (3000-9 where p is in hundreds of RM and q is the number of tons. Determine the point elasticity of demand when the quantity demanded is 6 tons. is demand elastic, is it inelastic, or does it have unit elasticity at this point? Approximate the percentage change in price if the demand of 6 tons is decreased by 3%.
