Suppose you were shown a demand curve for bananas and were asked to calculate price elasticity of demand. After doing so, you come up with 1.67 (absolute value). A classmate was asked to derive price elasticity of demand on the identical demand curve and got 0. 75 (absolute value). A bit perplexed, your classmate asks the professor which answer is right? The professor checks both calculations and says, "They're both right." ls this possible? If so, how and why?
4) Jerry, an addict of Jamba Juice finds out about his 3% increase in pay, so he plans on increasing his Jamba Juice consumption by 5% not to mention Jamba Juice's 1% price decrease. However, he plans to decrease his consumption of Tropical Smoothie by 2%. What is Jerry's cross-price elasticity of demand for a Tropical Smooth with respect to the price of Jamba Juice?

3. The effects of price changes on total revenue Edison's Fire Engines is the sole seller of fire engines in the fictional country of Pyrotania. Initially, Edison produced four fire engines, but he has decided to increase production to five fire engines. The following graph shows the demand curve Edison faces. As you can see, to sell the additional engine, Edison must lower his price from $105,000 to $90,000 per fire engine. Note that while Edison gains revenue from the additional engine he sells, he also loses revenue from the initial four engines because he sells them all at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial four engines by selling at $90,000 rather than $105,000. Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $90,000. (Note: Area is shown in thousands.) ICE (Thousands of dollars per fire engine). 150 135…

The following graph shows the daily demand curve for bippitybops in Chicago. Use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to compute total revenue at various prices along the demand curve. Note: You will not be graded on any changes made to this graph. Total Revenue 0 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 64 72 80 200 180 160 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 PRICE (Dollars per bippitybop) QUANTITY (Bippitybops per day) Demand A B Area: 1280 Calculate the daily total revenue when the market price is $180, $160, $140, $120, $100, $80, $60, and $40 per bippitybop.
