2. Hope, Arkansas (home of both ex-President Bill Clinton and former Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee), has a subway system, for which a one-way fare is $1.50.

The Governor is dismayed, thinking that this will mean Hope is losing one-third of its revenue from sales of subway tickets. The Governor's economic advisor reminds him that he is focusing only on the price effect and ignoring the quantity effect. Explain why the Governor's estimate of a one-third loss of revenue is likely to be an overestimate using elasticity of demand.
