Chapter 04 Demand 10. The long-run price elasticity of demand for a product is generally _________ the short-run elasticity for the same product. A. lower than B. equal to C. higher than D. not comparable to 11. Assume the demand function for skin care products is given by Q = 1‚000 – 20 P + 5I. If P=$25 and I=$1‚000 currently‚ then: A. skin care products are a normal good. B. the elasticity of demand is equal to 11. C. skin care products are inferior. D. The price is too high

(i) What is meant by ’cross-price elasticity of demand’? It is a measure of the responsiveness of demand for a good to a change in the price of another good. This good can either be a substitute good or complementary good. (ii) Comment on the cross-price elasticity of demand between platinum and gold. When the price of platinum rises demand for gold rises. Because gold can be a substitute for platinum people will want to buy gold more when the price of platinum increases. (b)

The price elasticity of demand (PED) is “a measure of how much the quantity demanded of a good responds to a change in price of the good” (Mankiw 2007‚ p.90). It is a form of measure to determine how willing consumers are to move away from the good as the price of the good rises. Most of the time‚ there are factors that determines the PED‚ such as availability of close substitutes‚ necessities versus luxuries‚ definition of the market and time horizon. In order to calculate the PED‚ a formula is

Relationships of Changes in Price‚ Price Elasticity and Total Revenue 1. By definition‚ total revenue (TR) is obtained by multiplying quantity demanded of a product (Qx) by price (Px)‚ that is‚ TR = Qx Px. (1) In class‚ by taking the derivative of the above total revenue equation with respect to price (dTR/dPx)‚ we obtain the following general functional relation: dTR/dPx = Qx (1 + Ep) (2). In Equation (2)‚ Ep represents the price elasticity of demand. Since Ep is always

Demand‚ Supply‚ Market Equilibrium and Elasticity A. Elasticity of demand is shown when the demands for a service or goods vary according to the price. Cross-price elasticity is shown by a change in the demand for an item relative to the change in the price of another. For substitutes‚ when there is a price increase of an item‚ there is an increase in the demand for another item. When viewing complements‚ if there is an increase in the price of an item‚ the demand

The price elasticity of demand is the percentage change in price divided by the percentage change in quantity demanded. F 2. Demand is said to be inelastic when a reduction in price results in a decrease in total revenue. T / F 3. When the price of coffee increases 8%‚ quantity demanded decreases 5%. The elasticity of coffee must be inelastic. (PERCENTAGE OF PRICE IS GREATER THAN THE PERCENTAGE OF QUANTITY BY 1/1/2) T 4. The more substitutes there are for the product the more price elastic
