Answer:
The government policy should have reduced beer consumption by 0.6 or 60%
Explanation:
Mid point formula calculates the ratio of mid point of change in demand and change in price to their average value. Then these changes are used in the calculations of elasticity of demand.
According to given data:
Elasticity of demand = 0.9
Midpoint of price = (20-10) / [(20+10)/2] = 10 / 15 = 0.6667
Elasticity of Demand = Midpoint of demand / Midpoint of price
0.9 = Midpoint of demand / 0.6667
Midpoint of price = 0.9 x 0.6667 = 0.6
Change in demand is should reduce the consumption by 0.6 or 60%.
Answer:
arc price elasticity = -1.64
Explanation:
arc price elasticity = (change in quantity x average price) / (change in price x average quantity)
- change in quantity = 7,400 - 10,000 = -2,600 units
- average price = ($2.50 + $3) / 2 = $2.75
- change in price = $3 - $2.50 = $0.50
- average quantity = (10,000 + 7,400) / 2 = 8,700 units
arc price elasticity = (-2,600 x $2.75) / ($0.50 x 8,700) = -7,150 / 4,350 = -1.64

The First amendment guarantees Mike, the freedom of speech i.e expression, freedom to practice the religion of his choice and the freedom of press i.e the freedom to publish an article expressing his views in a magazine.
