a) revenue = 25000*30 = 750000
b) revenue = 20000*50 = 1000000
c) the company gains from lowering price as revenue increases after decrease in price. This implies automobiles are price elastic.
d) elasticity = (50-30)(25000+20000) / (20000-25000)(30+50)
= -900/400 = -2.25

Given below is a demand schedule for pizza in a market Average Price of Pizza Quantity demanded (millions per week) $21 8 $18 14 $15 20 $12 26 $9 32 What is the slope of the demand curve? What is the price elasticity of demand at 12$ and $6? What observation(s) can you make based on these values? Using the formulae that we used in class, how many units can you sell at $16.25?
7. Problems and Applications Q7 Suppose that your demand schedule for pizza is as follows: Price Quantity of Pizzas Demanded Quantity of Pizzas Demanded (Dollars) (Income = $20,000) (Income = $24,000) 8 40 50 10 32 45 12 24 30 14 16 20 16 8 12 Using the midpoint method, your price elasticity of demand as the price of pizzas increases from $10 to $12 is if your income is $20,000 and if your income is $24,000. If the price...
