Imagine you are a bank manager. Currently, your bank holds $8 million in deposits at a 4% interest rate. However, you need to increase the total deposits to $10 million. The interest rate elasticity of savings is 40.
What interest rate should you offer to depositors to obtain the required amount, all other things being equal?
Demand is likely to be price elastic if:
1. the buyers can use normal inflation to explain the price increase
2. buyers do not readily notice price changes
3. buyers think a higher price is justified by quality differences
4. there are many alternatives and direct substitutes for the product
5. buyers are slow to change their purchasing habits
Use the following demand function to answer questions 3-4. Show all your work to receive full
credit.
Qpork= 5.2 – 1.47Ppork + 1.82Peef + 0.18Pchicken + 0.38/
Calculate the cross-price elasticity of pork demand with respect to beef if the price
of pork is $3.78/lb., the price of beef is $6.15/1b., the price of chicken is $1.90/lb., disposable
income is $48000 per capita, and the total quantity demanded of pork is 52 lbs. per capita.
If the price of beef increases by 12%, how much would you expect the quantity
demanded of pork to change (in lbs.)?

This he believed was due to the fact that consumers, being more health conscious, switched from red meat to poultry, in an effort to eat healthier foods. Intrigued by these findings, Bill contacted the US Department of Agriculture for additional information. The department provided him with data that yielded two findings. First, there was a 75% decrease in the price of poultry over the period and second, there was widespread adoption of cost reducing innovations in poultry processing.
