Answer:
Option (b) is correct.
Explanation:
There are three types of price discrimination:
(i) First degree price discrimination or Perfect price discrimination
(ii) Second degree price discrimination
(iii) Third degree price discrimination
Perfect price discrimination refers to a situation in which the selling price of the product is equal to the price that a consumer willingness to pay for the product. This is a situation in which there is no consumer surplus.
Consumer surplus = Actual price paid by the consumer - Willingness to pay for the product
Answer:
Quantity of beef demanded will decrease by 12%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Price elasticity of demand for beef, Ed = 0.60
Increase in the price of beef = 20%
Now,
Price elasticity of demand for beef,
Ed = [ Percentage change in Quantity ] ÷ [ Percentage change in price ]
or
0.60 = [ Percentage change in Quantity ] ÷ 20%
or
Percentage change in Quantity = 0.60 × 20%
or
Percentage change in Quantity = 12%
Also,
Price and Quantity are inversely proportional
Hence,
With the increase in price, the quantity will decrease
Therefore,
Quantity of beef demanded will decrease by 12%
Answer:
$21.9275
Explanation:
The cost of online banking is $39.99
The cost of checks books is $17.95 per 100. The cost associated with 25 checks
= $17.25/100 x 25
=0.1725 x 25
=$4.3125
The cost of a stamp is 50 cents, which is $0.50
for 25 checks
=$0.50 x 25
=$12.5
The writing fee
=$0.05 x 25
=$1.25
Total cost of using checks
= $4.3125 + $12.5 +$1.25
=$18.0625
the difference between online banking and checks
= $39.99 - $18.0625
=$21.9275
Answer:
Select the answer that best describes the strategies in this game.
- Both companies dominant strategy is to add the train.
Does a Nash equilibrium exist in this game?
- A Nash equilibrium exists where both companies add a train. (Since I'm not sure how your matrix is set up I do not know the specific location).
Explanation:
we can prepare a matrix to determine the best strategy:
Swiss Rails
add train do not add train
$1,500 / $2,000 /
add train $4,000 $7,500
EuroRail
do not add train $4,000 / $3,000 /
$2,000 $3,000
Swiss Rails' dominant strategy is to add the train = $1,500 + $4,000 = $5,500. The additional revenue generated by not adding = $5,000.
EuroRail's dominant strategy is to add the train = $4,000 + $7,500 = $11,500. The additional revenue generated by not adding = $5,000.
A Nash equilibrium exists because both companies' dominant strategy is to add a train.
