Answer: (1) 700 pizzas

(2) Its revenue increases by $2600.

Explanation:

Given that,

price elasticity of demand for his pizza = -4

Percentage change in price = 10%

Initial Quantity,Q_{0} = 500 Pizzas

Elasticity of demand = \frac{Percentage\ change\ in\ quantity }{Percentage\ change\ in\ price }

-4 = \frac{Percentage\ change\ in\ quantity }{0.1 }

\frac{Percentage\ change\ in\ quantity } = -4 × 0.1

\frac{Q_{1}-Q_{0}}{Q_{0}} = 0.4

\frac{Q_{1}-500}{500} = 0.4

∴ Q_{1} = 700

Initial price, P_{0} = $20

Changed price, P_{1} = $18

Revenue at t = 0

P_{0} Q_{0} = 500 × 20 =$10000

Revenue at t = 1

P_{1} Q_{1} = 700 × 18 = $12600

Therefore, from the above calculations it was seen that his revenue increases by ($12600 - $10000)= $2600 and its sales increases to 700.
