You are the marketing analyst for Better Beans Coffee Company, which has nine stores nationwide. The company wants to build two

additional stores. Your executive team has decided that rather than expand to new markets, they want Better Beans to begin opening additional stores in existing markets. While this will create cannibalization in the short term, it will create marketing and operating efficiencies as more stores are opened in each city.As a scrappy and growing startup, Better Beans does not yet have access to complex marketing analytics software. Fortunately, you are an expert at gathering market data from inside and outside the company and crunching accurate numbers with nothing more than an Excel spreadsheet.You have been tasked with calculating the two best markets for opening an additional store. You have already calculated two things that allow you to estimate the net additional revenue in each market after adding a second store:Revenue for a second store in each marketThe revenue lost from estimated cannibalization at the first store.Important note: Due to the high investments already made in existing stores, management has specified that any market where cannibalization is 25% or more should be eliminated from consideration.1. Ignoring cannibalization rates for now, what two markets have the highest net revenue increases when adding a second store?a. Dallas and Portlandb. Los Angeles and Orlandoc. Chicago and Dallasd. Orlando and Dallase. Los Angeles and Portland2. What two markets should be chosen for a second store based on management's criteria that the cannibalization rate for the existing store should be less than 25%?Note: Cannibalization rates and net revenue increase amounts need to be considered when making this determination.a.

Answer:

Better Beans Coffee Company

1. San Diego's $2,750,000 and Orlando's $1,525,000 presented the highest net revenue increases when adding a second store.

2. Based on management's criteria that the cannibalization rate for the existing store should be less than 30%, San Diego with 10% and Los with 10% Cannibalization rates should be chosen.

Explanation:

Cannibalization Rate is a measure of the impact of new products or the presence of new stores on sales revenue for existing products or stores.  Cannibalization happens when a business, like the Better Beans Coffee Company, opens a new store in a town where there is an existing store. It can also happen when Better Beans releases new coffee products.  Consumers' attention and demand for existing products can decrease, as a switch to new products or new stores takes place.

Suppose a $3 per-unit tax is placed on this good. The tax causes the price paid by buyers to
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Per Unit specific tax = $3 : Increases price paid by buyers by $3 (if demand is perfectly inelastic) <u>OR</u> Doesn't change buyers' paid price (if supply is perfectly inelastic) <u>OR</u> Partially increases price by <$3 (based on relative demand & supply inelasticity)

Explanation:

Indirect taxes (eg-specific per unit tax) is an example of tax whose incidence & impact fall on different people , burden can be shifted from sellers to buyers .

However  burden of a per unit tax is beared by consumers or producers more, depends on relative inelasticity of demand  and supply .

If demand is more inelastic , more tax burden is shifted to buyers & if supply is more inelastic , more tax burden is beared by the seller itself .

Reason : Because Elasticity is the responsiveness of buyers demand & sellers supply to product price , more burden is shifted to the economic agent (buyers / sellers) who are less sensitive / more insensitive to change in price for their demand / supply
