if there is any diagram can you add it. Given the following demand and supply equations: QD = 10 - 0.8P + 5Y + A QS = -10 + P where Q = quantity (million units per month), P = price (€ per unit). Y = average monthly income (€000) and A monthly advertising expenditure (€000). Suppose average monthly income is €4,000 and monthly advertising expenditure is €50,000: (a) Find the market equilibrium price and quantity. (b) Find total welfare when the market is in equilibrium. (c) Find the price elasticity and income elasticities of demand and price elasticity of supply at equilibrium. Interpret your results. (d) What would be the effect of a price ceiling of €60? Explain. (e) Suppose a tax of €8 per unit is introduced: (i) What is the effect on market price and quantity? Explain. (ii) What is the impact of the tax on total welfare? Explain. (iii) How is the incidence of the tax shared between the consumer and the supplier? Explain
A TV channel has estimated the demand for its service to be givenby the following function: Q=9.83p-1.2A2.5Y1.6P0-1.4whereQ = monthly sales in unitsP = price of the service in $A = promotional expenditure in $’000Y = average income of the market in $’000P0 = price of ‘home movies’ in $ The current price of the TV channel is $60, promotional expenditure is$120,000, average income is $28,000, and the price of ‘homemovies’ is$45.Indicate whether the following statements are true or false, givingyour reasons and making the necessary corrections h. Current sales are over a million units a month. i. The demand curve for the channel is given by:Q=9.83p-1.2j. The channel’s sales are more affected by the price of ‘home movies’ than by the price of its own service.k. If the channel increases its price this will reduce its profit.
Question #2 Consider the following demand function for frozen dinners where QD is the quantity of frozen dinners demanded per week, P is the price per frozen dinner, PF is the price per fast food meal, Y is the average yearly consumer income, and A is the number of advertisements for frozen dinners. Demand Function for Frozen Dinners: QD = 1,000 – 10P + 20PF – 0.01Y + A Suppose that a frozen dinner sells for $4, a fast food meal sells for $6, average yearly consumer income is $50,000, and that there are 20 advertisements for frozen dinners. Calculate and interpret the income elasticity of demand. Calculate and interpret the cross-price elasticity of demand with respect to fast food meals.
If average household income increases by 10%, from $50,000 to $55,000 per year, the quantity of rooms demanded at the Peacock (falls, rises) from rooms _____ per night to _____rooms per night. Therefore, the income elasticity of demand is (negative, positive) , meaning that hotel rooms at the Peacock are (a normal good, an inferior good) . If the price of a room at the Grandiose were to decrease by 10%, from $250 to $225, while all other demand factors remain at their initial values, the quantity of rooms demanded at the Peacock (falls, rises) from______rooms per night to_______rooms per night. Because the cross-price elasticity of demand is (negative, positive), hotel rooms at the Peacock and hotel rooms at the Grandiose are (complements, substitutes) . Peacock is debating decreasing the price of its rooms to $175 per night. Under the initial demand conditions, you can see that this would cause its total revenue to (decrease, increase) . Decreasing the price will always have this…
