Angie Mae has just finished recording her latest CD. Her record company's marketing department determines that the demand for the CD is as follows: Marginal Total Revenue Price Number of CDs Revenue 24 10,000 22 20,000 20 30,000 18 40,000 16 50,000 14 60,000 1. Find total revenue for a quantity equal to 10,000, 20,000, and so on (write your answers on the third column of the table above). What is the marginal revenue for each 10,000 increase in the quantity sold (write your answers on the fourth column of the table above)?

The Stopdecay Company sells an electric toothbrush for $25. Its sales have averaged 8,000 units per month over the past year. Recently, its closest competitor, Decayfigh ter, reduced the price of its electric toothbrush from $35 to $30. As a result, Stopde cays sales declined by 1,500 units per month. What is the arc cross elasticity of demand between Stopdecays toothbrush and Decayfighters toothbrush? What does this indicate about the relationship between the two products? If Stopdecay knows that the arc price elasticity of demand for its toothbrush is 1.5, what price would Stopdecay have to charge to sell the same number of units as it did before the Decayfighter price cut? Assume that Decayfighter holds the price of its toothbrush constant at $30. What is Stopdecays average monthly total revenue from the sale of electric toothbrushes before and after the price change determined in part (b)? Is the result in part (c) necessarily desirable? What other factors would have to be taken into consideration?

Genovia has experienced exceptional growth in recent years. Its GDP per capita (orIncome) has increased from around $30,000 to $50,000 in last 5 years. Over theperiod quantity demanded of personal cars has increased from 450,000 units per yearto 600,000 units. Quantity demanded of public transport, however, has declined from10,000 buses to 7,000 buses. Calculate income elasticity of demand and tell whichproduct is a normal good and which one is inferior.

Taiwan is a major world supplier of semiconductor chips. A recent earthquake severely damagedthe production facilities of Taiwanese chip-producing companies, sharply reducing the amount of chipsthey could produce.a. Assume that the total revenue of a typical non-Taiwanese chip manufacturer rises due to theseevents. In terms of an elasticity, what must be true for this to happen? Illustrate the change in totalrevenue with a diagram, indicating the price effect and the quantity effect of the Taiwan earthquake onthis company’s total revenue.b. Now assume that the total revenue of a typical non-Taiwanese chip manufacturer falls due to theseevents. In terms of an elasticity, what must be true for this to happen? Illustrate the change in totalrevenue with a diagram, indicating the price effect and the quantity effect of the Taiwan earthquake onthis company’s total revenue.
