Suppose your elasticity of demand for your parking lot spaces is –2, and price is $8/day. If your MC is zero, and your capacity is 80% full at 9 A.M. over the last month, are you optimizing?

your MC is zero, and your capacity is 80% full at
9 A.M., over the last month, are you optimizing?
When the price of a gallon of milk increases from $6 to $8, quantity demanded decreases to 27
gallons. Assuming the price elasticity of demand for milk is -0.3, what is the original quantity
demanded? (assuming further that this is the point elasticity relative to the original point on the
demand curve.) Please make sure you give a numerical answer with no units and/or space or
period (.) or comma (,) before or after your answer.
