Using elasticities, you will be able to determine whether this price change will lead to a rise or fall in total revenue in this market. Using the midpoint method, the price elasticity of demand for pistachios between the price levels of $15 and $9 per ton is between these two points, demand is Thus, you can conclude that the grower's claim is will due to the favorable weather conditions. meaning that because total revenue Confirm your previous conclusion by calculating total revenue in the pistachio market before and after the favorable weather conditions.

The company is seeking to maximize its net profit. It has been concluded that the relationship between price and demand, per month, is approximately D = 800 - 8p, where p is the price per unit in dollars. The fixed cost is $1,000 per month, and the variable cost is $20 per unit. Obtain the answer mathematically to the following questions: a. What is demand that will maximize revenue per month and the maximum revenue b. What is the optimal number of units that should be produced and sold per month? c.

- A firm introduced a new product to the market in the first month of the year which supported with the corresponding advertising campaign and showed their steady growth next months. The starting price was set at a level of 30% above the average cost (AC). The company's objective is to cover its overheads and achieve maximization at profits and therefore wonders if the price of €7.5 is optimal. With continuous development of sales the company conducted market research and found that elasticity demand to price is −3. The formula for calculating the elasticity of demand is given to the value: eP = [-AC/(P-AC)] - 1 Sales (tons) and costs (thousand euros) for the next 3 months are estimated as follows: Sales (volume) Raw materials Labor Administrative expenses Electricity - Heating JANUARY Other general expenses total EXPENSES 2,250 €1,400 Other industrial costs €3,000 €3,350 €2,150 €450 €2,250 €12,600 FEBRUARY 2,500 €1,550 €4,050 €3,075 €2,150 €475 €2,200 €13,500 MARCH 2,750 €1,700 €4,950…arrow_forwardA company produces and sells a consumer product and thus far has been able to control the volume of the product by varying the selling price.
