Jim's Camera shop sells two high-end cameras, the Sky Eagle and Horizon. The demands and selling prices for these two cameras are as follows. De demand for the Sky Eagle Ps= selling price of the Sky Eagle Du demand for the Horizon PH selling price of the Horizon Ds = 227-0.60Ps + 0.35PH DH=275 +0.10P-0.64PH The store wishes to determine the selling price that maximizes revenue for these two products. Develop the revenue function R (in terms of Ps and PH only) for these two models, and find the prices (in dollars) that maximizes revenue. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

Assume lawyer services have an elasticity of demand of 2.0 in absolute value. Currently, a lawyer charges $300 per consultation and she has 100 consultations per week. If she raises her rate to $375 perconsultation (a 25% increase) her revenue wil (use the general formula for elasticity not the midpoint formula)rise from s30.000 per week to $31500 per weekrise from $30.000 per week to $33750 per weekfall from $30.000 per week to $18750 per weekfal from $30,000 per week to s26000 per week
Joe Smiley buys his mobile phone services from Sprint, the sole provider in his state of Wyoming. Sprint offers the following pricing plans: a fee of 10 dollars per month and 50 minutes of free calls per month or a fee of 20 dollars per month and 100 minutes of free calls. Under both plans the price of additional calls is 25 cents per minute.Joe Smiley's demand curve for mobile phone services is P=100 - 0.5Q where P is measured in cents/minute and Q is measured in minutes per month. a) suppose Joe Smiley subscribes to the first plan (10 dollar fee and 50 free minutes) (i) how much calling time would he consume? (ii) what would be his total benefit? What would be his surplus? b) suppose Joe Smiley subscribes to the second plan (20 dollar fee and 100 free minutes) (i) how much calling time would he consume? (ii) what would be his total benefit? What would be his surplus? c) which plan would Joe Smiley choose? He will choose plan (b) because it maximizes his surplus

You own a bakery and shop that makes and sells gourmet doggie treats. You have done market research and you know with certainty that your product is a normal good, not an inferior good. The current demand function for your gourmet doggie treats is: QD = 480 -6*P which of course means the equation for your current demand curve is: P = 80 -(1/6)*Q You are opening a new shop in a new part of town, and you know that incomes in that part of town are much lower than incomes are where your shop is now. Which of the following is most likely the demand curve in your new shop? Multiple Choice O P=68- (1/6)*Q P = 102 - (1/6)*Q P=92-(1/6)*Q P = 88 - (1/6)*Q
Macmillan Learning You have been appointed head of marketing for Barry's Younique Yachts. Barry, the CEO, is interested in determining whether offering his yachts at a lower price would increase the firm's revenue. He asks you for advice. Using your knowledge of elasticity, you should tell Barry that he should increase his prices. Demand for yachts is perfectly inelastic, so a price increase will cause total revenue to increase. that he should reduce his prices. Yachts are luxury goods and therefore exhibit a high price elasticity of demand. Thus, reducing prices would increase revenue. that he should increase his prices. Demand for yachts is likely to be elastic because they are so much fun to drive. Thus, increasing prices would increase revenue. that he should reduce his prices. Yachts are a necessity and therefore have a low price elasticity of demand. Thus, reducing prices would increase revenue.
Reid has determined that the daily demand for doughnuts at his favorite bakery is described by the following equation: Qd = 3,300 - 3000P where Qd is the daily quantity demanded in number of doughnuts and P is the price per doughnuts in dollars. a. What is the point price elasticity of demand at a price of $0.70? b. Assume the price is currently $0.70. What is the marginal revenue obtained by selling one additional doughnut? c. The marginal cost of producing an additional doughnut is $0.10. What price should the bakery establish in order to maximize profits?
Suppose you own a tax preparation services company, with fixed costs of $3,000/month and marginal costs of $25/appt.If the price is $60/appt, 500 appointments would be sold. If the price is $50/appt, 760appointments would be sold. a.)Use these figures to calculate the price elasticity of demand for your services. b.)Calculate the monthly profits and profit margins (profit/revenue) associated with the price of $60/appt and $50/appt. c.)Given these calculations, what price should you charge for your services, $50/apptor $60/appt?

At a particular street corner are two competing sandwich shops: Tony’s and Diana’s. Both have been doing well selling delicious veggie sandwiches, so much so that they both increase their prices in response to rising demand. Use the data shown in the table below to calculate both Tony’s and Diana’s supply elasticity for veggie sandwiches. Which sandwich shop seems better situated to meet the rising demand for veggie sandwiches? QS1 Price1 QS2 Price2 Tony's 100 $5.00 125 $6.00 Diana's 65 $6.95 75 $8.50 Please answer both questions, as I am unsure of how to go about them
