An online news site earns revenue by selling subscriptions at price ps and ads at price pa. For simplicity, assume the site has zero marginal cost. Consumer demand for subscriptions is given by: 4s = 1- Ps Demand from advertisers for ad-space depends on the number of subscribers though: 9A=4s (1-P) 1. Suppose the site first ignores potential advertising revenue and sets the profit-maximizing price of subscriptions without considering the impact on demand for ads. What is this price, and...

given Qd = 25-P and Qs=4p it also says if price is at $10 and $2 compared to p* find the amount of surplus and shortage, which i have already done ive figured out p* is 5 and surplus would be 5$ at $10 and $3 shortage at $2 I need to find the price elasticity of both demand and supply.

You sell software downloaded from via a website, which costs $1000 per month to maintain. Marginal cost is essentially $0 per download. There are some competitors for your product, but none of them is exactly like your product. You have estimated that your demand follows the following pattern: Qd= 100 - 4P + 100A where A is an ad you can purchase for $500 per ad (you have to purchase a whole ad). a) If you don't spend any money...
