8. Critical analysis Q13 Suppose John, the owner-manager of a local hotel, projects the following demand for his rooms: Price ($) Quantity Purchased (per day) 90 100 120 80 150 70 The price elasticity of demand between $90 and $120 is his total revenue will The price elasticity of demand between $120 and $150 is his total revenue will in absolute value. This means that if John raises the price from $90 to $120, in absolute value. This means that if John raises the price from $120 to $150,

5. Johnny Ringlet at SkateNation staged a President's Day promotion at his Roller Skating Rink last week. By reducing the entry price and skate rental from $5.50 to $3.50, the number of Skaters per week night increased from 40 to 60.

3. The Burrito Barn is considering a price reduction on the Firegut Burrito, which currently sells for the price of $5.00. Giuseppe, the proprietor of Burrito Barn, knows the price elasticity for the Firegut is roughly equal to -2.3 over the range being considered for the price change. The Firegut has been selling at the brisk pace of 500 burritos per week. To increase market share, Giuseppe would like to increase sales to 750 per week. What price should Giuseppe set?

Suppose the cross-price elasticity of demand between DVDs at Amazon.com and DVDs at Rakuten.com is 3.5. Based on this information, predict what happens when Amazon.com lowers its DVD prices by 10 percent. The quantity of DVDs demanded on Amazon.com will decrease by 35 percent. The quantity of DVDs demanded on Amazon.com will increase by 35 percent. The quantity of DVDs demanded on Rakuten.com will decrease by 35 percent. The quantity of DVDs demanded on Rakuten.com will increase by 35 percent.
