(Calculating Price Elasticity of Demand) Suppose that 50 units of a good are demanded at a price of Si per unit. A reduction in price to $0.20 results in an increase in quantity demanded to 70 units. Using the midpoint formula, show that these data yield a price elasticity of 0.25. By what percentage would a 10 percent rise in the price reduce the quantity demanded, assuming price elasticity remains constant along the demand curve?
Suppose a research report has estimated the demand for a firm's product as ln QXd = 7 − 1.5 ln PX + 2 ln PY − 0.5 ln M + ln A where:Px = $15Py = $6M = $40,000, andA = $350 a. Determine the own price elasticity of demand, and state whether demand is elastic, inelastic, or unitary elastic. Own price elasticity: -1.5 Demand is: elastic b. Determine the cross-price elasticity of demand between good X and good Y, and state whether these two goods are substitutes or complements. Cross-price elasticity: 2 These two goods are: Substitutes. c. Determine the income elasticity of demand, and state whether good Xis a normal or inferior good. Income elasticity: Good X is: d. Determine the own advertising elasticity of demand.

Exercise : Following an increase in it's price, from 10$ to 12$, the demand for a good falls from 10500 to8100 units.What elasticity of demand would you estimate from these data? Calculate its value, first by using the general formula (for discrete changes), then by assuming a constantconstant elasticity of demand (log formula).Calculate the demand for p=9 (note q9 the quantity for p=9), using the general formula then in log of the elasticity calculated in Now, Knowing the value of the direct price elasticity of demand calculated previously, assuming constant costs andcosts and rivals not responding to your price cut, would you have recommended the price cut from 10 to 9?price cut from 10 to 9 ?

The demand function for bicycles in China has been estimated to be Q= 2,000 + 15Y - 5.5P Where Y is income in hundred of $, Q is the old quantity demanded in units, and P is the old price ($) per unit. When P = $150 and Y = $15,000, determine the following: Wuestion: Price elasticity of demand (ɳp) and interpret your finding, Income elasticity of demand (ɳY) and interpret your finding.
Use the price-demand equation to find the values of p for which demand is elastic and the values for which demand is inelastic. Assume that price and demand are both positive. x=f(p)=3703-7p² 529 3 The values of p for which demand is elastic are (Simplify your answer. Type your answer in interval notation.
