Kellenberger AGEC 700 Problem Set #3 2) The demand curve for a product is given by Qdx = 1‚200-3Px- .01Pz‚ where Pz = $300. a) What is the own price elasticity of demand when Px = $140? Is demand elastic or inelastic at this price? What would happen to the firm’s revenue if it decided to charge a price below $140? At the given prices‚ quantity demanded is 750 units: Qdx = 1‚200- (3 *140) -.1 (300) = 750. -140/750=-.56; demand is inelastic at this price point and you would be decreasing total revenue

DATA DICTIONARY Data Dictionaries‚ a brief explanation Data dictionaries are how we organize all the data that we have into information. We will define what our data means‚ what type of data it is‚ how we can use it‚ and perhaps how it is related to other data.
