Answer:
Exit the market.
Explanation:
Suppose there are X firms in a competitive market and they are all making normal profits. If the demand for their products decreases, some of the firms will start to sell less, which will result in lower profits or even losses. In the long run, those firms that experience lower sales resulting in lower profits or losses, will exit the market. Once these firms exit the market, the quantity supplied should decrease, which will result in a price increase.
Let
z----------------- > Price Elasticity
x----------------- > % Change in Quantity
y----------------- > % Change in Price
we Know that
Price Elasticity = (% Change in Quantity) / (% Change in Price)----> z=x/y
z=-2
y=-10%
x= <span>?
</span>z=x/y---------------- > x=z*y=(-2)*(-10)=20 %
% Change in Quantity=20%
Part A) how many pizzas will he sell if he cuts his price by 10%?
He will sell (500 +20 %)----------> 500*1.2=600 pizzas per week
the answer part A is 600 pizzas per week
Part B) <span>how will his revenue be affected?
<span>initial revenue per week
</span>500 pizzas*</span><span>$20 =$10000
final revenue per week
(500 pizzas+20%) *(</span>$20-10%)=600 pizzas*$18=$10800
$10800-$10000=$800
<span>
the answer part B is
His revenue </span><span>will increase $800 per week</span>
