The inverse demand curve facing a resort hotel is during the low season and PL = 100-Q₁ PH = 350 – QH during the high season. The resort's marginal cost is $50 per night in cleaning costs for the room and general maintenance and administration. The resort only has 75 rooms. What is the resort's profit- maximizing peak-load pricing strategy? Illustrate the solution in a diagram. 1.) Using the point drawing tool, indicate the profit-maximizing price during the low season.

1. There are two brands of cigarettes X, Y. The demand for each is as follows: Qx = 80 - 2p Qy = 60 - 0.5p Assume that the marginal cost of producing cigarette X is $10, the marginal cost of producing cigarette Y is $8, and that the market for both cigarettes is perfectly competitive. Assume that each pack of cigarette X smoked does $5 worth of health damage to the smoker, and a total of $4 worth of health damage to the smoker’s neighbors via second-hand smoke. Each pack of cigarette Y smoked does $6 worth of health damage to the smoker, and $5 health damage to the smoker’s neighbors. (a) Explain why the public supply curves differ from the private supply curves, and how this represents the externality from second-hand smoke. Highlight the area(s) of your diagram that represents a social loss. (b) Calculate the social loss for both. (c) Suppose the government decides to pursue a Pigouvian solution to eliminate social loss. What's amount of tax or subsidy would the government…

3. Consider the Smith family who have the following demand for rental housing (q, measured in square feet): q=0.5*(y/p), where y is the Smith family income and p is the price of housing per square foot. The Smith's income is $4000 per month and initially the price of housing is $2 per square foot per month. a. If the Smiths are operating on their demand curve, how much housing are they consuming? b. How much is the Smith family's monthly rent? How much does the Smith family spend on other consumption? c. Starting from the initial equilibrium, the government now grants the Smiths a proportional rent subsidy with B=0.5. How much housing does the Smith family purchase given the subsidy? d. What is the gross market rent per month paid by the Smith family? What is the net rent (after deducting the subsidy) paid by the Smith family? How much does the Smith family spend on other consumption in its new equilibrium? e. What is total dollar outlay of the government for the Smith's housing…

Typically, there is an inverse relationship to between demand and price; when price decreases, demand increases and vice versa. One major airline has found that when the price (p) for a round trip between Chicago and Los Angeles is $600, the demand (D) is 500 passengers per day. When the price is reduced to $400, demand is 1,200 passengers per day. Use a data table to estimate the price that maximizes total revenue.
4. An economic consultant provides a firm's marketing manager with the following estimate of the demand function for the firm's product: Qx = 1240 – 3.13Px - 0.611P, + 2.01M + 0.30AX Px = the price of the firm's product per unit; Py = the price of another good per unit; M = money income for the average consumer; Ax = advertising costs for the firm's product. The demand function shown above indicates that: A. The firm's good (X) and the other good (Y) are substitutes and that X is an inferior good B. The firm's good (X) and the other good (Y) are complements and that X is an inferior good C. The firm's good (X) and the other good (Y) are substitutes and that X is a normal good D. The firm's good (X) and the other good (Y) are complements and that X is a normal good
Joe has just moved to a small town with only one golf course, the Northlands Golf Club. His inverse demand function is p=140-2q, where q is the number of rounds of golf that he plays per year. The manager of the Northlands Club negotiates separately with each person who joins the club and can therefore charge individual prices. This manager has a good. idea of what Joe's demand curve is and offers Joe a special deal, where Joe pays an annual membership fee and can play as many rounds as he wants at $20, which is the marginal cost his round imposes on the Club. Joe marries Susan, who is also an enthusiastic golfer. Susan wants to join the Northlands Club. The manager believes that Susan's inverse demand curve is p=120-2q. The manager has a policy of offering each member of a married couple the same two-part prices, so he offers them both a new deal. What two-part pricing deal maximizes the club's profit? Will this new pricing have a higher or lower access fee than in Joe's original…

The demand for each is as follows: Qx = 80 - 2p Qy = 60 - 0.5p Assume that the marginal cost of producing cigarette X is $10, the marginal cost of producing cigarette Y is $8, and that the market for both cigarettes is perfectly competitive. Assume that each pack of cigarette X smoked does $5 worth of health damage to the smoker, and a total of $4 worth of health damage to the smoker’s neighbors via second-hand smoke. Each pack of cigarette Y smoked does $6 worth of health damage to the smoker, and $5 health damage to the smoker’s neighbors. (a) Plot the private demand curve and private supply curve for both cigarettes on separate axes. (b) What is the privately efficient quantity demand of both cigarettes? (c) Add the public supply curves to the graphs you plot in (a). (d) What is the socially efficient quantity demand of both cigarettes?
The widget market is competitive and includes no transaction costs. Five suppliers are willing to sell one widget at the following prices: $26, $14, $10, $5, and $3 (one seller at each price). Five buyers are willing to buy one widget at the following prices: $10, $14, $26, $34, and $42 (one buyer at each price). For each price shown in the following table, use the given information to enter the quantity demanded and quantity supplied. Price Quantity Demanded Quantity Supplied ($ per widget) (widgets) (widgets) $3 $5 $10 $14 $26 $34 $42 In this market, the equilibrium price will be per widget, and the equilibrium quantity will be widgets.
