closest competitor‚ Spring City Stove Works‚ cut its price for a closely competitive model from $600 to $450. Potomac noticed that its sales volume declined to 4‚500 units per month after Spring City announced its price cut. a. What is the arc cross elasticity of demand between Potomac’s oven and the competitive Spring City model? Solution: Given: PA=$500‚ QA1=6‚000‚ QA2=4‚500‚ PB1=$600 and PB2=$450 Required: Ex=? b. Would you say that these two firms are very close competitors? What other factors

C.the percentage change in quantity demanded is relatively small in response to a relatively large percentage change in price. D.all of the above are true. Answer Key: C Question 2 of 16 10.0/ 10.0 Points If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than 1‚ this means the demand curve in that region is: Correct A.price elastic. B.price inelastic. C.unit price elastic. D.upward sloping. Answer Key: A Question 3 of 16 10.0/ 10.0 Points Which of the following will lead

Barnes & Noble books which Estimated Elasticity is -4.00 which I believe is elastic because it has a value greater than 1 decrease in quantity demanded is proportionally greater than the increase in price. Coca-Cola which Estimated Elasticity is -1.22 I believe is elastic because it has a greater then 1 Cigarettes which Estimated Elasticity is -0.25 I believe is inelastic because it has less than 1 in absolute value. Beer which Estimated Elasticity is -0.23 I believe is inelastic because it

Law of Supply According to this concept if the price paid by consumers rises‚ the suppliers increase the supply of the good. [Economictimes (2015)] Price Elasticity of Demand It is a relationship of measuring change in quantity of demand of any good and the change in price of that good. The formula to measure it is that Price elasticity of demand=% change in demanded quantity/ %change in price. [Economics online (2015)] Macroeconomics It is a field that studies about the direction of economy

Modulus of elasticity: The ratio of the stress applied to a body to the strain those results in the body in response to it. The modulus of elasticity of a material is a measure of its stiffness and for most materials remains constant over a range of stress. . Material | Elastic Modulus | | MPa | psi | Steel | 200‚000 | 30‚000‚000 | Poisson ratio It is the negative ratio of transverse to axial strain. In fact‚ when a sample object is stretched (or squeezed)‚ to an extension (or contraction)

will increase. The calculation shows that the price of the product elasticity= -42(500/17‚650)= -1.19. The price of the microwaveable food product is elastic‚ meaning that the price of the product will affect the demand. The calculation display that the cross elasticity= 20(600/17‚650) = .68. The cross elasticity‚ or the price of the leading competitive product‚ is positive‚ suggesting that they are extra products. Since the elasticity is not greater than one‚ which proposes that they are not necessarily
