Answer:

1

Explanation:

Since we need to determine the price elasticity of demand (PED) for a given range, not a specific price, we must use the midpoint method:

PED = {(Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2]} / {(P2 - P1) / [(P2 + P1) / 2]}

= {(25 - 20) / [(25 + 20) / 2]} / {(4 - 5) / [(4 + 5) / 2]}

= (5 / 22.5) / (-1 / 4.5) = 0.2222 / -0.2222 = -1 ≈ 1 (when we calculate PED we use absolute values)

Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is -5

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand against the change in price of the product. It shows how much demand changes if there is the change in price.

Using mid point method

Change in Demand = $20 - $25

Change in Demand = -$5

Change in price  = $5 - $4

Change in price  = $1

As we know

Elasticity of Demand = Change in demand / Change in price

Elasticity of Demand = -$5 / $1

Elasticity of Demand = -5

A university is trying to determine what price to charge for tickets to football games. At a price of ​$24 per​ ticket, attendan
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:<u><em>  Price per ticket should be charged in order to maximize​ revenue is $15.</em></u>

<u><em>70000 people will attend at this price.</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Explanation:

Let 'x' represent the decrease .

Using the given information,

Price per ticket = 24 - 3x

Average no. of people that watch the game = 40000 + 10000x

Additional money spent by every person = 6(40000 + 10000x)

Revenue [R(x)] = Price per ticket \times Average no. of people that watch the game + Additional money spent

Revenue [R(x)] = (24 - 3x)\times(40000 + 10000x) + 6(40000 + 10000x)

On solving the above equation we get ,

Revenue [R(x)] = -30000x^{2} + 180000x + 1200000

In order to find the critical point we'll differentiate the following with respect to x;

R'(x) = -60000x + 180000

∵ R'(x) = 0  

x = 3

<u><em>Thus, the price per ticket that should be charged in order to maximize​ revenue is (24 - 3\times3 = 24 - 9 = $15)</em></u>

<u><em>People that will attend at this price = (40000 + 10000\times3) = 70000</em></u>
