Answer:

The price of tee-time should be reduced by 6.67%.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand for tee times is –1.5.  

The manager wants to increase the number of tee times sold by 10%.  

The price elasticity of demand shows the change in quantity demanded due to a change in the price level. It is the ratio of the percentage change in quantity demanded and percentage change in price.  

Price elasticity = \frac{\% \Delta Q}{\% \Delta P}

- 1.5 = \frac{10 \%}{\% \Delta P}

\% \Delta P = \frac{10}{- 1.5}

\% \Delta P = - 6.67 \%

Effective Gross Income (EGI): Effective Gross Income is calculated by deducting the Vacancy and collection (V&C) loss from Gross Potential Income (GPI).

First year gross potential income (PGI) is $340,000

Vacancy and collection (V&C) loss is 15% of gross potential income

Therefore, (V&C) allowance = [$340,000 15%]

Amount

Potential gross income (PGI)
