Monthly demand for the tablet computers is estimated to be as the following linear function:
Qxd = 350-2.5Px-3.6Pv + 0.8M + 1.2Ax.
Based on this information answer the following:
a. Suppose that good X (tablet) sells at $600 per unit,
related good Y sells at $125 per unit, average yearly consumer
income is $3,500 and the company utilizes 250 minutes of the
monthly TV advertising. What would be the monthly quantity demanded
for tablet PCs?
b.How would we fully interpret the coefficient next to Ax?
c. What would the own price elasticity of demand coefficient for tablet PCs be equal to? How would we fully interpret this price elasticity of demand coefficient?
d. What would the cross-price elasticity of demand coefficient for tablet PCs be equal to? How would we fully interpret this income elasticity of demand coefficient?
e. What would the income elasticity of demand coefficient for the tablet PCs be equal to? How would we fully interpret this income elasticity of demand coefficient?

Q3. The general linear demand for good X is estimated to be Q = 25,000 - 80P-0.25M + 72P (6 Pts) where P is the price of good X, M is average income of consumers who buy good X, and P, is the price of related good R. The values of P, M, and P, are expected to be $100, $35,000, and $60, respectively. Use these values at this point on demand to make the following computations. a. Compute the...
Suppose the following is an estimated log-linear demand function: ln Q = 8.99 – 3.78 ln P – 1.77 ln M – 2.03 ln PR All parameter estimates are significant. 1) Is this good a normal or an inferior good? 2) Is this good a complement of or substitute for the related good? 3) What is the price elasticity of demand for this good? 4) What is the income elasticity of demand for this good?
The general linear demand for good X is estimated to be Q=250000-500P-1.5M-240PR Where P is the price of good Q, M is average income of consumers who buy good Q, and PR is the price of related good R. The values of P, M, and PR are expected to be $200, $60,000, and $100, respectively. Use these values at this point on demand to make the following computations. A. Compute the quantity of good Q demanded for the given values...
THE FOLLOWING IS THE DEMAND FUNCTION FOR SUGAR: Qs = 20 -5Ps + 3Pe + 6Y Where Qs = demand for sugar (in pounds) Ps = $5 = price of “sugar” for pounds Pe = $100 = price of “equal” pounds Y = $200 = per capital income for a week What is the demand for sugar Qs? Compute and interpret (using a one percent change) the price elasticity. Compute and interpret...
The demand for beer for heavy drinkers is given by the following demand function: Qd=190-3P. The demand for beer for light drinkers is given by the following demand function Qd=60-4P. Suppose the current price for beer is, on average, $12 per case. a. What is the price elasticity of demand for heavy drinkers? b. How does this compare to the price elasticity of demand for light drinkers? c. Are the differences in the price elasticity between the two groups what...
Problem 1 In a local market, the monthly price of Internet access service increases from $40 per account to $52 per account, and the total quantity of monthly accounts across all Internet access providers decreases from 1,000,000 to 600,000. See pages 418 – 419. a. Assuming other things were equal, what is the price elasticity of demand? See EXAMPLE on 419. b. Is demand elastic, unit-elastic, or inelastic? Please explain. c. How would you interpret the price elasticity calculated in...
