In 2014‚ Rouse & Sons‚ a small environmental-testing firm‚ performed 12‚200 radon tests for $290 each and 16‚400 lead tests for $240 each. Because newer homes are being built with leadfree pipes‚ lead-testing volume is expected to decrease by 10% next year. However‚ awareness of radon-related health hazards is expected to result in a 6% increase in radon-test volume each year in the near future.

Major Assignment 1) a) Demand Function: Quantity Demanded (Qd) = a + b* Price (P) Supply Function: Quantity Supplied (Qs) = a + b* Price (P) Where: a = constant b = the change in quantity as a result to the change in price. Demand Function: Quantity Demanded (Qd) = a + b* Price (P) b = (420 – 350) / (20 – 25) = 70 / -5 = -14 Using: P = 25‚ Qd = 350 350 = a – 14 * (25) 350 = a – 350 Therefore a = 700 and the demand function would be: Qd = 700 – 14 * P Supply Function:

Price Elasticity: Price Elasticity is used to explain the degree of responsiveness of the demand for a product to a change in its price. Ep=Percentage change in quality demanded/Percentage change in price (Ep=Price Elasticity) Practical applications of Price Elasticity: 1) Helps in fixing the prices of different goods: It helps a producer to fix the price of his product. A higher price is charged if the demand for the product is inelastic and a lower price is charged if the demand for the product
