1. Consider the following: If the price per unit of good A is P200 quantity purchased is valued at 1,500 units. If price changes (increase or decrease) by P1, quantity demanded changes (decreases or increases) by 4 units. A. Determine the demand function expressed as a price function.  B. Set up a demand schedule for this function and determine the price elasticity of demand at various P and Qd combinations using point-price elasticity formula. (Make sure that all elasticity concepts are found on the same demand curve.)  C. Determine the TR and MR functions.
