Option A
Explanation: Their cross-price elasticity is positive. This means the goods are substitutes. So, when the price of traditional cigarettes increases, the quantity demanded for the e-cigarettes would rise.
20. A 2014 paper by Grace et al. estimated that the cross-price elasticity between e-cigarettes and...
The estimated price elasticity of demand for cigarettes is -0.4 in high- income countries and -0.8 in lower-income countries. If a country's government raises taxes on cigarettes, the price to consumers goes up. The extra revenue collected from the higher price goes to the government. Would imposing a new tax on cigarettes stop more people from smoking in a high or lower-income country? O The tax would not be very effective at reducing smoking in either country, but it would...
Include a calculation of the cross-price elasticity of the alternative energy source and oil. Assume the current price of oil is $50/gallon of crude oil. If the price increases to the profit-maximizing price, $57.50, the quantity demanded of the alternative energy source increases by 20%. Explain if these goods are complementary goods, substitute goods, or non-related goods. If there is a relationship, indicate whether the relationship is weak or strong. Justify your answer with an explanation based on the elasticity...
Having a hard time on the last question
For each scenario, calculate the cross-price elasticity between the two goods and identify how the goods are related. Please use the midpoint method when applicable, and specify answers to one decimal place. A 20% price increase for Product A causes a 10% decrease in its quantity demanded, but no change in the quantity demanded for Product B. cross-price elasticity between A and B: relationship between A and B: no relationship Product Cincreases...
Cross-price elasticity measures the relationship between: a. normal goods and inferior goods. b. complements and inferior goods. c. necessities and luxuries. d. two goods and services. e. income and substitute goods.
Could someone take notes and explain for me from
these pragraph with explantation. Thank you advance
las inferior Goods Firms producing inferior goods do not benefit from a boom- ing economy. One such example is the pawnshop industry, which suffered during the economic prosperity of the late 1990s and 2000, as fewer people swapped jew- elry and other items for cash to cover car payments and other debts. Although pawnshops have always suffered from a somewhat disreputable image, the strong economy...
