The daily demand for Invigorated PED shoes is estimated to be Qdx = 100−3Px + 4Py − .01M + 2Ax where Ax represents the amount of advertising spent on shoes (X), Px is the price of good X, Py is the price of good Y, and M is average income. Suppose good X sells at $25 a pair, good Y sells at $35, the company utilizes 50 units of advertising, and average consumer income is $20,000. Calculate and interpret the own price, cross-price, and income elasticities of demand.

Walmart recently asked Mondelez, owner of Oreos to bring back a new-and-improved version of its 1990's cereal, Oreo O's. By studying social media comments, Walmart discovered a preference for cereal to address late-night snacking. What should Walmart measure during the initial 90-day relaunch, exclusive to its stores? At what level should it measure, and why?

The demand for a good is QD = 19 – 2P + 4l where P and I represent price and income respectively. At price of P=1 and income l=32, determine what type of good this is (inferior, necessity, or luxury) by calculating the income elasticity of demand.
Suppose the own price elasticity of demand for good X is -5, its income elasticity is 2, its advertising elasticity is 4, and the cross-price elasticity of demand between it and good Y is 3. Determine how much the consumption of this good will change if advertising decreases by 3 percentInstructions: Enter your responses as percentages. Include a minus (-) sign for all negative answers.
Your firm, Content Colleague, is similar to Happy Worker, a Canadian company that designs and manufactures toys and collectibles. Your research analyst has estimated the demand function for your stuffed toy animals is: If you set the price of a plush toy at $6, the number of toys that consumers will buy is [ million. Q=30 million - (4 million x P).
Essay 3 - 20 points As the manager of a local hotel chain, you have hired an econometrician to estimate the demand for one of your hotels (H). The estimation has resulted in the following demand function: QH - 2.25PSE + 0.8POH + 0.01M, where PH is the price of a room at your hotel, Pc is the price of concerts in your area, Pse is the price of sporting events in your area, PoH is the average room price at other hotels in your area, and M is the average income in the United States. What would be the impact on your firm of: a. A $500 increase in income? b. A $10 reduction in the price charged by other hotels? c. A $7 increase in the price of tickets to local sporting events? d. A $5 increase in the price of concert tickets, accompanied by an $8 increase in income? 2,000 – PH- 1.5Pc %3D -
Cikli is the manager of a firm that receives a revenue of RM3000per month from product X and RM7000 per month from productY. The price elasticity of demand for product X is -2.5 whenoriginal quantity (Q) for X and Y are 150 and 175 units,respectively and the cross price elasticity of demand betweenproduct X and Y is 1.1. If Cikli increases the price of good X by1%.a. How much will Cikli’s total revenue change for product X?b. How much is Cikli’s new total revenue for both of the products?
Suppose that the demand function of a new face cream is described by the demand function: Q(P, A) = P -1/2A 1/4 , where Q represents the quantity demanded, P represents price, and A represents advertising expenditures. (i) Compute the price elasticity of demand (eD) and the advertising elasticity of demand (eA ). (Please show your detailed calculations).
Jim's Camera shop sells two high-end cameras, the Sky Eagle and Horizon. The demands for these two cameras are as follows: Ds = demand for the Sky Eagle, Ps is the selling price of the Sky Eagle, DH is the demand for the Horizon, and PH is the selling price of the Horizon. = 229 – 0.60PS + 0.35PH Ds = 267 + 0.10PS – 0.64PH DH The store wishes to determine the selling price that maximizes revenue for these two products. Develop the revenue function for these two models. (Enter your answer in terms of Pe and P.) revenue = Find the prices that maximize revenue. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) (Pş, PH) =
The demand for good X is estimated to be Qxd = 10, 000 − 4Px + 5Py+ 2M + Ax, where Px is the price of X, Pyis the price of good Y, M is income, and Ax is the amount of advertising on X. Suppose the present price of good X is $50, Py = $100, M = $25,000, and Ax = 1,000 units. Based on this information, we know that the demand for good X is: Select one: A. inelastic. B. elastic. C. unitary elastic. D. neither elastic, inelastic, nor unitary elastic.
Consider the demand function for good1, Q1 = 2536 - 8P1 + 0.6000000000000001P2 - 1.75P3 + 0.05Y Where, price of good1 (P1) is 42, price of good2 (P2) is 197, price of good3 (P3) is 155, and income (Y) is 47792; (a) Find the price elasticity of demand (PED). (b) Find the income elasticity of demand (YED). (c) Find the cross-price elasticity of demand (XED) between good1 and good3. (d) Estimate the percentage change in the demand for good1 resulting from a 6% decrease in the price of good2. (e) Based on the value of YED, comment on the nature/type of the goods. (f) Based on the value of the XED between good 1 and good3, comment on the relationship between these two goods.Iknow its more than three questions but whoever solve 1,2,3 will able to solve rest. please solve all.
