Quantity of A traded 10,000 15,000 Household Income | Price of B $3000 Price of A $1.10 $1.50 $0.90 $2500 $1.20 (i) Determine the price elasticity of demand for A, income elasticity of demand for A and the cross price elasticity of demand between A and B using the mid-point formula. Based on the elasticities, classify A in terms of its price and income elasticities of demand and establish the relationship between product A and product B. Given that the price of product A increases by 5%, household income increases by 3% and the price of product B increases by 2%, explain and compute the effect on the revenue from product A, assume each of the changes occurs separately.
