Answer: No, johnson & johnson should not double its production capacity of their purell hand sanitizer.
Explanation: An increase in demand of hand sanitizers due to the H1N1 flue will shift the demand curve for hand sanitizers to the right. The price of hand sanitizers will increase meaning that greater production levels are profitable. The firms can take advantage of this profitability by increasing manufacturing capacity. However, capacity will be increased for many years and the H1N1 flu is a temporary phenomenon. So, once the H1N1 flu is controlled demand for hand sanitizer is likely to return to previous levels. As a result the increased capacity will then remain idle and unprofitable. So, johnson & johnson should not double its production capacity of their purell hand sanitizer.

Answer and explanation:
Demand elasticity measures the changes in quantity demanded as the result of changes in price. Demand elasticity is calculated by dividing the percentage change in quantity demanded by the percentage change in price. If the result is equal or higher than one (1) the product is <em>elastic </em>but if the result is lower than 1 the product is <em>inelastic</em>.
In the case, <em>as the elasticity of demand of the museum ticket is 0.45 it means the museum tickets is inelastic. This scenario implies that in front of changes of price the quantity demanded will not change. Thus, as a curator of the museum you should </em><u><em>increase the museum ticket price to increase revenue</em></u><em>.</em>
