d. According to a recent study, the elasticity of the supply of residential real estate inNicosia is 1.4 and in Limassol 1.9. If we assume that in 2022 the demand forresidential real estate will increase by 8% in both cities and that the supply willremain stable in both cities, how will the prices of residential real estate in bothcities be affected. Will they be affected in the same way or differently? If they are.affected differently, explain how the effect on prices will differ in the two cities andwhy.

Assume a new nuclear power plant wishes to raise consumers’ electrical rates to cover the unexpectedly high cost of construction. However, the government regulatory commission refuses to let electrical rates be increased because they say it will only worsen the power plant’s financial problems. We can conclude that The power plant is arguing that the demand for elasticity is elastic, whereas the government is arguing that it is inelastic. The power plant should increase its electrical rates if the demand for electricity is elastic. The power plant should decrease its electrical rates if the demand for electricity is inelastic d. The demand for electricity must be unitary elastic
