2. A car importer was preparing in September 2021 to accept the 2022 models. In order to clear the stock of cars of older models, it offered in August 2021 a discount of €1,750 from the normal price of €52,500.

- The Potomac Range Corporation manufactures a line of microwave ovens costing $500 each. Its sales have averaged about 6,000 units per month during the past year. In August, Potomac's closest competitor, Spring City Stove Works, cut its price for a closely competitive model from $600 to $545. Potomac noticed that its sales volume declined to 4,500 units per month after Spring City announced its price cut. What is the arc cross elasticity of demand between Potomac's oven and the competitive Spring City model? 1.5 –1.5 0 3.0 If Potomac knows that the arc price elasticity of demand for its ovens is −1.0, what price would Potomac have to charge to sell the same number of units it did before the Spring City price cut? $375 $450 $429 $667Ll.47.

The firm collected the following data on annual sales and number of construction permits issued in its market area: No. of Construction Sales Year Permits Issued (000) (1,000,000) 2003 6.50 10.30 2004 6.20 10.10 2005 6.60 10.50 2006 7.30 10.80 2007 7.80 11.20 2008 8.20 11.40 2009 8.30 11.30…Harding Enterprises has developed a new product called the “Quest Simulator (QS)”. The market demand for this product is given as follows: Q = 240 - 4P. If QS is priced at $40, what is the point price elasticity of demand? Is demand elastic or inelastic? What is the maximum amount that consumers are willing to pay for the quantity demanded at the price of $40? (hint: it includes both the total expenditures and the consumer surplus) If the price of QS is increased slightly from $40, what will happen to the total expenditure on the product? What will happen to the consumer surplus? Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism. Answer completely.

A rival company makes wodgets which are a weak competitor to your product. A small consulting company with MBA students from NotUNB have written a report for Superior Industries with the important statement, “Our estimates show that the demand elasticity for widgets is elastic (-1.8 or 1.8 in absolute value) and we strongly recommend that Superior Industries lower its price to increase revenues and market share.” In another sense, their statement misses the point.
