Explain the pricing strategy of a firm that faces an elastic demand curve for its good orservice
The director of a recreation center in a small college town is considering changing the way he prices access cards. He has hired an economic consulting firm to estimate the demand for access cards. The firm has classified people who go the recreation center into two groups, and has come up with two demand functions. The demand curves for the general public (Q) and students (Q,) are given below: Q = 700 – 4P Q, = 1,300 – 5P a. If the current price of access cards is $100, identify the quantity demanded by each group. b. Find the price elasticity of demand for each group at the current price and quantity. c. Is the director maximizing the revenue he collects from card sales by charging $100 for each card? Explain. d. What price should he charge each group if he wants to maximize revenue collected from card sales? Check whether the new total revenue is indeed greater than the old one.
A competitive firm can sell any amount if the firm set a price equal to the market price. True or false?
New Zealand possums produce the highest quality fur, due to the large pelts per body size. Demand for New Zealand possums’ products has risen dramatically. This is partly a result of the conservation benefits of harvesting New Zealand possums. This has made the product seem more environment friendly than other fur products and boosted sales to concerned consumers. Assume that the possums market satisfies all the attributes of a competitive market. Further assume that high grade possum furs are the most expensive input into the possum fur production function. 1. Use a graph of the market for possum fur to demonstrate the effect of its environmentally friendly status on the market equilibrium. 2. Graph the reaction of an individual incumbent firm to the increase in market demand. In your graph, identify the firm’s revenue and cost structures. 3. What would you predict would happen to long-run industry supply if the price of possum fur increased as possum culling increased their…
(7) For each situation, solve for the Stackelberg equilibrium 7a) Suppose Sarah's constant MC is $5 but Joe's is $8. (Using P(Q) = 20–0.1Q again and assuming Joe goes first) 7b) Suppose Joe and Sarah have the same marginal cost ($5) but market inverse demand is now P(Q) = 30 – 0.2 Q
Market equilibrium takes place at the point where MC < MR True/ False
Suppose market demand for mobile operators is expressed by Q=90-3P where Q is measured by calls in hours. There are three firms that supply the market: TRCell,VFone, and Avea .Avea provide hourly calls at a unit cost of 20$, where as TRCell& VFone has a unit cost equal to 10 Suppose firms are competing in price( no capacity constraints ) a) What is the market price? Why? b) How much does each firm sell in Bertrand equilibrium? c) What are firms’ profits? Is there any way for all firms to get higher profits

Above is the demand schedule for tickets to a Carnegie Hall performance of the Grateful Dead. Carnegie Hall seats 1,800 people. What is the equilibrium price and quantity for a concert of the Grateful Dead at Carnegie Hall? If tickets were sold for $18, what would happen (be specific)?
A travel agency identifies two customer segments for a cruise ship. The demand curve for customers that are less price-sensitive is D1=1000-2P1. The demand curve for customers that are more price-sensitive is D2=1000-3P2. The cost of maintaining each cabin is $50. If one single price is charged, what is the price to maximize the profit? What is the profit? If the differential prices are charged to each customer segment, what is the price for each customer segment respectively? What is the total profit? What is the profit increase by charging different prices to each customer segment compared with one single price?
