Suppose the elasticity of demand for your parking lot spaces, which are located in a downtown business district, is –1.8, and th

e price of parking is $11 per day. Additionally, suppose that your MC is zero, and your capacity has been 80% full at 9 AM each day over the last month.Since demand is ( ELASTIC, INELASTIC, OR UNIT ELASTIC) , and the lot is below capacity, (INCREASED, DECREASED, OR UNCHANGED) is the optimal pricing strategy.

Answer:

Elastic

DECREASED

Explanation:

The price elasticity is elastic. Demand is price elastic if the absolute value of coefficient of elasticity is greater than 1.

When demand is elastic, it means that quantity demanded is sensitive to changes in price. A small change in price would lead to a greater change in quantity demanded.

Because the parking lot has been operating below its full capacity and marginal cost is zero, the optimal strategy is to reduce price so that quantity demanded would increase.

I hope my answer helps you

Question. Draw a marginal revenue curve of a perfectly competitive firm and explain why the marginal revenue of a perfectly comp
svp [43]

If AR is constant, MR is equal to AR. Both are indicated by the same horizontal straight line(a situation of perfect competition)

<h3>What is the marginal revenue curve for a perfectly competitive firm?</h3>
  • Marginal revenue for a company with perfect competition is the same as average revenue and pricing.
  • This suggests that at values bigger than the average variable cost, the firm's short-run supply curve is its marginal cost curve.
  • The company closes if the price falls below the average variable cost.

Marginal revenue is the change in total revenue when one more unit of a commodity is sold.

MR= change in TR/change in quantity sold

Average revenue refers to revenue per unit of output.

AR=TR/Q

Relationship between AR and MR:

If AR is constant, MR is equal to AR.

Both are indicated by the same horizontal straight line(a situation of perfect competition)
