In this question, assume that all variables other than price and quantity are held constant.
serg [7]

Answer:

A. The price reduced by 0.115%

B.  Betty can expect her total revenue to increase.

C.  The demand reduced by 43.32%

D. Patty can expect her total revenue to increase.

 Explanation:

A.

The price elasticity of demand can be expressed as shown below;

P.E=%Q/%P

where;

P.E=price elasticity of demand

%Q=percentage change in the quantity demanded

%P=percentage change in price

In our case;

P.E=305

%Q=35%=0.35

%P=unknown, to be determined

Substituting;

305=0.35/P

305 P=0.35

P=0.35/305=0.00115

%P=0.0011×100=0.115%

The price reduced by 0.115%

B.

Determine the initial and final revenue and compare to illustrate if the revenue increased or reduced.

Initial Revenue=initial unit price×initial quantity demanded

where;

Initial unit price=p

Initial quantity=q

replacing;

Initial Revenue=p×q=pq

Final Revenue=final unit price×final quantity demanded

where;

final unit price=(p-0.115% of p)=p-0.00115 p=0.99885 p

final quantity demanded=(q+35% of q)=(q+0.35 q)=1.35 q

Substituting;

Final revenue=(0.99885 p)×(1.35 q)=1.348 pq

Final revenue-Initial revenue=1.348 pq-pq=0.348 pq

Betty can expect her total revenue to increase.

C.

Using the same expression as above;

P.E=%Q/%P

where;

P.E=0.57

%Q=unknown, to be determined=0.01 Q

%P=76%=76/100=0.76

Substituting;

0.57=0.01 Q/0.76

0.01 Q=0.57×0.76

Q=(0.57×0.76)/0.01

Q=43.32%

The demand reduced by 43.32%

D.

Initial Revenue=initial unit price×initial quantity demanded

where;

Initial unit price=p

Initial quantity=q

replacing;

Initial Revenue=p×q=pq

Final Revenue=final unit price×final quantity demanded

where;

final unit price=(p+76% of p)=p+0.76 p=1.76 p

final quantity demanded=(q-43.32% of q)=(q-0.43 q)=0.57 q

Substituting;

Final revenue=(1.76 p)×(0.57 q)=1.0032 pq

Final revenue-Initial revenue=1.0032 pq-pq=0.0032  pq

Patty can expect her total revenue to increase.

Should shoe companies be able to give away free shoes and equipment to high school athletes?
zheka24 [161]
If this is an opinion question, then my answer would be that the companies should chose where their products are distributed. This can be based off of their product availability, company income, and other factors such as how well they sell their shoes. This can affect how able they are to supply shoes without generating money back from the schools.
