What is the formula for measuring the price elasticity of supply? Es = (Click to select)percentage change in quantity supplied / percentage change in pricepercentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in incomepercentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price Suppose the price of apples goes up from $20 to $23 a box. In direct response, Goldsboro Farms supplies 1300 boxes of apples instead of 1200 boxes. Compute the coefficient of price elasticity (midpoints approach) for Goldsboro’s supply. Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. Es = Is its supply elastic, or is it inelastic? Supply is (Click to select)elasticinelastic.
The demand for hot dog bread rolls has increased from 10,000 to 12,000 after the price of hot dog sausages has fallen from $2.20 to $1.80 per pack. (a) Calculate the cross-price elasticity of demand between hot dog sausages and hot dog rolls. (b) Explain how the two products are related based on your answer in (a).
9. Application: Elasticity and hotel rooms The following graph input tool shows the daily demand for hotel rooms at the Rivers Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey. To help the hotel management better understand the market, an economist identified three primary factors that affect the demand for rooms each night. These demand factors, along with the values corresponding to the initial demand curve, are shown in the following table and alongside the graph input tool. PRICE (Dollars per room) Demand Factor Average American household income Roundtrip airfare from Pittsburgh (PIT) to Atlantic City (ACY) Room rate at the Continental Hotel and Casino, which is near the Rivers 500 450 400 350 300 250 200 150 100 50 0 Demand 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 QUANTITY (Hotel rooms) Initial Value $50,000 per year $250 per roundtrip $200 per night Market for Rivers's Hotel Rooms Price (Dollars per room) Quantity Demanded (Hotel rooms per night) Demand Factors Average Income…

Can you help me with questions A, B, C,D, and E thank you!!
Suppose that a large city has dozens of apartment complexes that are nearly identical in terms of size, age, and amenities. Assume the demand curve for an apartments at an individual complex is perfectly elastic. If the city places an excise tax on apartments, who will pay the tax? What will happen to the quantity demanded. Explain and show graphically. For graphical purposes, assume the supply of apartments is upward sloping.
