Each small square in the grid for this graph has one side equal to 1 pound of screws and one side equal to 1 dollar per pound. The area of one small square is therefore There are small squares in the purple shaded rectangle. On this graph, the area of the purple rectangle corresponds to: King Hardware's revenue from selling screws, measured in dollars The price of the screws, measured in dollars per pound The number of screws that King Hardware sold, measured in pounds None of these-the area has no meaning

Nile.com, the online bookseller, wants to increase its total revenue. One strategy is to offer a 10% discount on every book it sells. Nile.com knows that its customers can be divided into two distinct groups according to their likely responses to the discount. The accompanying table shows how the two groups respond to the discount. Group A Group B(sales per week) (sales per week) Volume of sales beforethe 10% discount 1.55 million 1.50 million Volume of sales afterthe 10% discount 1.65 million 1.70 million A. Using the midpoint method, calculate the price elasticities of demand for group A and group B. B. Explain how the discount will affect total revenue from each group. C. Suppose Nile.com knows which group each customer belongs to when he or she logs on and can choose whether or not to offer the 10% discount. If Nile.com wants to increase its total revenue, should discounts be offered to group A or to group B, to neither group, or to both groups?

In 1998, five companies were found guilty because of their actions to raise the price of an animal feed additive, lysine, by limiting its supply. Explain why they would engage such a practice with the use of a graph. Assume that the demand for lysine is inelastic in the short term.

When sold for $790.00, a certain desktop has an annual supply of 129.5 million computers and an annual demand of 155.5 million computers. When the price increases to $865.00, the annual supply increases to 147.5 million computers, and the demand drops to 134.5 million computers. NOTE: Round slope and vertical intercept to 4 decimal places and use those rounded values to the end. (a) Assuming that the supply and demand equations are linear, find the supply and demand equations. Supply Equation p = Demand Equation p = esc (Note: The equations should be in the form p = mq + b where p denotes the price (in dollars) and q denotes the quantity (in billions). The slope and y-intercept should be accurate to 4 decimal places). (b) Find the Equilibrium price and quantity. Equilibrium price p = Equilibrium quantity q = 9- F2 A (Note: The equilibrium price should be accurate to 2 decimal places and quantity should be rounded to the nearest whole number, and the equilibrium price should include a…

Suppose that your demand schedule for books is as follows: (PHOTO) (SHOW FORMULAS, STEP BY STEP PROCEDURE) Use the midpoint method to calculate your price elasticity of demand as the price of books increases from $10 to $12 if your income is $10,000. Is it elastic or inelastic? Explain. Use the midpoint method to calculate your price elasticity of demand as the price of books increases from $10 to $12 if your income is $12,000. Is it elastic or inelastic? Explain. Calculate your income elasticity of demand as your income increases from $10,000 to 12,000 if the price is $14. Calculate your income elasticity of demand as your income increases from $10,000 to 12,000 if the price is $8.

11. Study Questions and Problems #11 Initially, a market is in equilibrium, but then both demand and supply decrease. Suppose that the magnitude of the shift in demand is greater than the shift in supply. Use the graph input tool to help you answer the following question. You will not be graded on any changes you make to this graph. PRICE QUANTITY Supply Demand As a result of the supply and demand shifts, the price will Demand -- Supply , and the quantity will
