- Using the following equation for the demand for a good or service, calculate the price elasticity of demand (using the point form), cross-price elasticity with good x and income elasticity. Q=82P+0.10I+Px Q is quantity demanded, P is the product price. P1 is the price of a related good, and I is income. Assume that P= $10, I = 100, and Px = 20.arrow_forwardConsider the demand for hamburgers. If the price of a substitute good (for example, hot dogs) increases and the price of a complement good (for example, hamburger buns) increases, can you tell for sure what will happen to the demand for hamburger? Why or why not? Illustrate your answer with a graph.arrow_forwardThe price of crude oil has been increasing. The price of a good rises in two cases, when demand rises or when supply falls, or both. It has been given that there has been a growing demand for crude oil for turning into refined petroleum (increase in demand), along with a decline in its production (fall in supply). It implies that both an increase in demand and a decrease in supply is responsible for the price rise. Draw a graph to show the information.arrow_forward

- Exercise 1: Shifts in the Demand Curve. In recent years, sales of music CDs have decreased as many consumers have elected to download individual tracks of music directly into their playing devices. Of course, the cost to download a single track is less than the cost of a CD. The demand for music CDs is shown in the demand schedule as D1. Imagine that as a result of pressure from the music industry, music downloads are outlawed, and the only way to purchase music is to buy a music CD. Demand for CDs increases and is now shown in the demand schedule as D2. Using the data presented in the Demand Schedule for CDs, graph the demand curves D1 and D2 in the chart below. Refer to the chart you have drawn and answer the following questions: 1. When CDs sell for $18, compare the quantity demanded for CDs at demand levels D1 and D2. 2. Explain why more customers are now willing to purchase CDs for the same price. 3. When demand increases at all price levels, the demand curve shifts in which…arrow_forwardThe following graph plots the market for electric guitars in Houston, where there are always over 1,000 music stores. Suppose the price of acoustic guitars decreases. (Assume that people regard electric guitars and acoustic guitars as substitutes.) Show the effect of this change on the market for electric guitars by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther.
