4.(a). Competition might be a worry for Toyota. PM = the price of Mazadas. Calculate the point Mazada cross-price elasticity of demand with PM = $20000 and PT = $20000 (which should make Qr = 270). Other variables are given at the top before question #1. The formula is: QT Pm dPm Qr ETM = (b). Does this elasticity indicate that the demand for Toyotas is relatively responsive to changes in the price of Mazadas? Explain why or why not.

4.(a). Competition might be a worry for Toyota. PM = the price of Mazadas. Calculate the point Mazada cross-price
elasticity of demand with PM = $20000 and PT = $20000 (which should make Qr=270). Other variables are given
at the top before question #1. The formula is:
aQT Pm
ETM apm QT
(b). Does this elasticity indicate that the demand for Toyotas is relatively responsive to changes in the price of
Mazadas? Explain why or why not.
5.(a). Calculate the point advertising elasticity of demand for advertising expenditures (A) = $10000 also with PT=
$10000 (which should make Q₁-370). Other variables and their values are given at the top, before question #1. The
formula is:
EA
=
aQT A
DA LT
(b). Does this elasticity indicate that demand for Toyotas is very responsive to changes in advertising expenditures (thus
suggesting that advertising is a very important way to increase sales)? Explain why or why not.
