Answer:

For Dan, the demand is price inelastic

Explanation:

One of the factors tat affect the quantity demand for a product is the price of the product. According to the law of demand, at lower price more quantity of a product would be purchased than at a higer price, all other this being being equal.

Price elasticity of Demand (PED)

The extent to which a change in price will cause a change in the quantity demand for a product is called the price elasticity of demand. It measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demand to a change in price.

It is calculated as

PED =% change in quantity demand / % change in price.

For Dan Newspaper , the price elasticity of demand

             = 4%/8%

            = 0.5

If the PED is greater than 1, the demand is price elastic

If the PED is less than 1 , demand is price inelastic

For Dan, the demand is price inelastic

Archy [21]

Answer:

B) High, low

Firms and brands that continually attempt to operate in the  <u>HIGH</u> price / <u>LOW</u>  benefits quadrant do not survive over the long run as customer  trust is Damaged.

Explanation:

Many times new products have a very short life because companies believe that they can charge very high prices because they are innovations, but they forget to provide the corresponding benefits of a very high price. Usually short living fads result from this strategy, because the customers will demand more for their money and if the product doesn't satisfy them, they wouldn't purchase it again. And with all the social networks we have today, gossip (and videos) about bad products travel extremely fast.
