Apple and Samsung are two competing brands in smartphone device market. Suppose that when the price of Apple is $1000 the quantity demanded is 28,000 units per month. When its price increases to $1200 monthly quantity demanded decreases to 24,000 units per month. Although there is no change in Samsung device prices, due to the change in Apple prices, demand for Samsung devices changes from 12,000 units per month to 16,000 units to per month. a. Calculate the price elasticity of demand for Apple devices by using the mid point method K b. Calculate the cross price elasticity of demand for Apple and Samsung devices and decide what type of relationship is there between two brands

Al's Appliancemart has market power in selling refrigerators. He just got in a shipment of undamaged refrigerators. Al has determined that there are two different types of buyers. One group are high demanders who have a more inelastic demand but tend to be picky about how nice their appliances look (they won't buy a dented one). Other buyers, low demanders, have a relatively more elastic demand, but also don't mind having a refrigerator with some dents. He pays $600 for each refrigerator from his supplier. 3/3 He has calculated that the high and low demander demand functions follows: Low: P = 1,000-0.5QL (QL = 2,000 - 2P) High: P = 1,600 - QH (QH = 1,600 – P) How much profit could Al earn if he sells them as is? How many should he add dents to (with a hammer) in order to maximize profit? What price would he then put on the non-dented and the dented refrigerators and how many would he sell of each? What would his profit then be?. UT Sports, a store that sells various types of sports clothing and other sports items, is planning to introduce a new design of World Cup Kits. A consultant has estimated the demand curve to be Q= 8400 – 420 P Where Q is cap sales and P is price. How many KITs could UT sell at $25.2 each? How much would the price have to be to sell 7,560 KITs? Suppose UT were to use the KITs as a promotion. How many KITs could UT give away free? At what price would no KITs be sold? Calculate the point price elasticity of demand at a price of $ 25.2.
- Hans is a butcher in Washington. The following contains data on prices and weekly sales at his shop Good Beef Chicken Price 9.00/lbs $4.00/lbs Quantity 400 lbs 300 lbs ShS He estimates that the own price elasticity for beef is 2 and for chicken is .75. He also estimates that the cross price elasticity for chicken is .60. His current revenue from the sale of these two goods is making a total of $4800/week. In the spirit of the return to good times and outdoor grilling, he has decided to lower the price of beef for the summer, from $9.00 to $8.55. Overall, Hans can expect to take in dollars in revenue, given the information in this problem? (Revenue = Price x sales). Record your answer without a dollar sign and without a comma. Helpful Hint: In this problem, we are not changing the price of chicken.16. Revenue with Substitutable Products. The Camera Shop sells two popular models of digital single lens reflex (DSLR) cameras. The sales of these products are not inde- pendent; if the price of one increases, the sales of the other increases. In economics. these two camera models are called substitutable products. The store wishes to estab- lish a pricing policy to maximize revenue from these products. A study of price and sales data shows the following relationships between the quantity sold (N) and price (P) of each model: NA 195 0.6PA + 0.25PB N = 301+0.08PA-0.5PB a. Construct a model for the total revenue and implement it on a spreadsheet. b. Develop a two-way data table to estimate the optimal prices for each product in order to maximize the total revenue. Vary each price from $250 to $500 in incre- ments of $10.Aruna owns Pottery Plus, a small firm that produces terra cotta pots for sale in the Edmonton area.

According the table above, if the price of an iPhone is $275, the market will demand iPhones.you sell twi different goods : printer and toner catridges. the price elasticity of demand for the printer is -3.4, and you earn a revenue of Rm15000 per month from the good. you earn a revenue of Rm5000 per month from the toner catridges. the cross price elasticity of demand for both of the goods is -2.5. if you decide to decrease the price of the printer by 5%, calculate your new total revenue for both of the goods.
- Alex's Fire Engines is the sole seller of fire engines in the fictional country of Pyrotania. Initially, Alex produced eight fire engines, but he has decided to increase production to nine fire engines. The following graph shows the demand curve Alex faces. As you can see, to sell the additional engine, Alex must lower his price from $75,000 to $50,000 pe fire engine. Note that while Alex gains revenue from the additional engine he sells, he a loses revenue from the initial eight engines because he sells them all at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenu lost from the initial eight engines by selling at $50,000 rather than $75,000. Then use t green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $50,000.
