If you are not confident then please do not answer and do not waste my chances to ask the question ( they are not for free ) Only answer if you know the detailed answer explaining every step with calculations for the question below- COPEC is the acronym for the cartel of copper-exporting countries. As part of an international trade deal, the US has pledged to acquire all of the copper that COPEC wishes to sell to the US at a constant price of $100 per tonne. Copper is also sold in Europe by COPEC at a price of $150 per tonne. COPEC acts like a monopolist -if it is profit maximising to sell in the United States at $100 per tonne and simultaneously to sell in Europe for $150 a tonne, what is the price elasticity of demand of COPEC's copper in the European market? Explain each stage in the development of the elasticity's value, including the underlying economic theory method.

FG Manufacturers wants to determine the effectiveness of their pricing decisions for their product Lylo. As a consultant, you have been asked to develop cost functions that will assist in arriving at the optimal price that will enable the company to maximize profits. During the year, you were provided with the following demand and costs functions for the product: P = 400 – 6Q; where P is the unit selling price and Q is quantity in thousands of units. TC = 8Q2 + 36Q + 150; where TC is total cost in thousands of dollars. Determine the optimal sales revenue. Calculate the maximum profit. Briefly outline two (2) factors to be considered by managementswhen pricing decisions are being made.

A large company in the communication and publishing industry has quantified the relationship between the price of one of its products and the demand for this product as Price=160−0.02×Demand for an annual printing of this particular product. The fixed costs per year (i.e., per printing)=$47,000 and the variable cost per unit=$40. What is the maximum profit that can be achieved? What is the unit price at this point of optimal demand? Demand is not expected to be more than 4,000 units per year. The maximum profit that can be achieved is $? (Round to the nearest dollar.) The unit price at the point of optimal demand is $? per unit.
As an additional safety measure for online transactions, several credit card companies now supply customers with one-time-use credit card numbers. These numbers can only be used once.
