At a price of $50 for a CD player, firms are willing to produce and sell 2200 CD players. At a price of $70 for a CD player, firms are willing to produce and sell 2600 CD players. What is the price elasticity of supply in this range? (Use arc elasticity.)
a. 2
b..5
c. .05 Incorrect. Please review Top Ten Concept # 5.
d. 20
e. none of the above
Question 9
In the figure above, the arc elasticity of the demand curve between points A and B is
a. 0.50
b. 0.86
c. 1.17
d. 2.00
e. 3.75
please help asap!
Thank you.
Q1, P1 : 2200, 50
Q2, P2: 2600, 70
Elasticity = [(q2-q1) / ((q2+q1)/2)] / [(p2-p1) / ((p2+p1)/2)]
= [(2600-2200) / ((2600+2200)/2)] / [(70-50) / ((70+50)/2)]
= [400 / 2400] / [20 / 60]
= 0.16667 / 0.33333
= 0.5
option b is the correct answer

The table below shows a hypothetical demand and supply schedule for CD players. Price, K Quantity demanded, thousand/yr Quantity supplied, thousands/yr 100 10 3 120 9 4 140 8 5 160 7 6 180 6 7 200 5 8 Plot the supply and demand curves on the same diagram Find the equilibrium price and quantity Using the same data, what is the excess supply or demand When the price is K120? When the price is K200? Explain why and in...
