Femi's HookNLadder is the only company selling fire engines in the fictional country of Alexandrina. Femi Initially produced five trucks, but then decided to increase production to six trucks. The following graph gives the demand curve faced by Femi's HookNLadder. As the graph shows, in order to sell the additional fire truck; Femi must lower the price from $160,000 to $120,000 per truck. Notice that Femi gains revenue from the sale of the additional engine, but at the same time, he loses revenue from the initial five engines because they are all sold at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial five engines by selling at $120,000 rather than $160,000. Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $120,000.

The elasticity of Supply is an important concept in Microeconomics as it relates to a business's ability to adjust its production and its production facility in response to market developments. Think of some examples of products and businesses that would have various degrees of Elasticity of Supply and share them here. For example, what would be the Elasticity of Supply for an original piece of art? What does this imply for the adjustment in this market to a change in Demand? How would you describe the Elasticity of Supply for a product such as peaches, plums, and other tree fruit? Consider first a brief period, such as weeks, and next a much longer period such as five years. How does the time horizon influence market adjustment when there is a change in Demand?
Problem Following are four graphs and four market scenarios, each of which would cause a shift in either the demand or the supply curve of plastic bottled water. For each scenario, do the necessary changes on the graphs below by showing the new market equilibrium reached. You are also expected to mention the changing factor. An improvement of the water bottling industry occurred lately. The price of glass bottled water increased and this is a substitute in production for the firm. The price of plastic has increased. Assume that plastic bottled water is an inferior good, and that the Kuwaiti economy witnessed an increase in the average household income from 20,000KD to 25,000 KD. Kindly explain in detail
Your firm’s research department has estimated the income elasticity of demand for nonfed ground beef to be −1.94. You have just read in The Wall Street Journal that due to an upturn in the economy, consumer incomes are expected to rise by 10 percent over the next three years. As a manager of a meat-processing plant, how will this forecast affect your purchases of nonfed cattle?
Mo's HookNLadder is the only company selling fire engines in the fictional country of Alexandrina. Mo initially produced eight trucks, but then decided to increase production to nine trucks. The following graph gives the demand curve faced by Mo's HookNLadder. As the graph shows, in order to sell the additional fire truck, Mo must lower the price from $80,000 to $60,000 per truck. Notice that Mo gains revenue from the sale of the additional engine, but at the same time, he loses revenue from the initial eight engines because they are all sold at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial eight engines by selling at $60,000 rather than $80,000.

12 Jim's Camera shop sells two high-end cameras, the Sky Eagle and Horizon. The demands and selling prices for these two cameras are as follows. Ds = demand for the Sky Eagle Ps= selling price of the Sky Eagle DH = demand for the Horizon PH = selling price of the Horizon = 223 - 0.60P + 0.35PH DH=270+ 0.10P - 0.64PH Revenue Ds The store wishes to determine the selling price that maximizes revenue for these two products. Develop the revenue function R (in terms of Ps and PH only) for these two models, and find the revenue maximizing prices (in dollars). (Round your answers to two decimal places.) Price for Sky Eagle Price for Horizon Optimal revenue R = PS = $| PH = $ R = $
You start a business making decorative reusable water bottles. Suppose the demand for the bottles is modeled by the equation q = V15 – 2p where p is the price per bottle and q is the number of bottles sold per week. Suppose that your cost of materials for each bottle is 3 dollars. a) Calculate the price elasticity of demand when p = 3. Write a sentence explaining what this means in terms of the demand and the price. b) Find the range of prices for which demand is inelastic (assume p < 0) c) Find the price that would maximize your revenue. d) Find the price that would maximize your profit. (Include steps justifying that this is a maximum).
Consider a company, StarBreads, that sells bread in a competitive market. The price of bread is currently $3 per loaf, and StarBreads is selling 1000 loaves per day. The company decides to increase the price to $4 per loaf, and as a result, daily sales drop to 800 loaves. Calculate the price elasticity of demand for StarBreads' loaves using the midpoint method.

An article in Trinidadian Gazette described a marketing campaign by a beverage company. The article states that “many senior managers felt uneasy about the extremely high prices of carbonated beverages. They also believed that with the sharp increases there would be a fall in demand which would again cause prices to fall further. What mistake did the senior managers make with their analysis of the situation? Illustrate your answer with a graph.
