Mead Plumbing currently sells thread seal tape at a price of $42.00 per roll. Their research department has derived the price-demand equation as p = 60 -0.02x where x is the number of tapes that can be sold at $p per roll of tape. (d) If the current price changes by 10%, what will be the approximate percentage change in demand? (e) Find the price at which a percentage change in price produces the same percentage change in demand.
The quantity demanded each month of Russo Espresso Makers is 250 when the unit price is $140. The quantity demanded each month is 1000 when the unit price is $110. The suppliers will market 750 espresso makers when the unit price is $76 or higher. At a unit price of $96, they are willing to market 2250 units.

When the price of a gallon of milk increases from $6 to $8, quantity demanded decreases to 27 gallons. Assuming the price elasticity of demand for milk is -0.3, what is the original quantity demanded? (assuming further that this is the point elasticity relative to the original point on the demand curve.) Please make sure you give a numerical answer with no units and/or space or period (.) or comma (,) before or after your answer. Enter your answer here

You have demand for 2 products: QA = 200 - 4'PA And Qg = 180 – 2°P8 %3D You anticipate seilling 80 units of each product. You have to mark-up your two products to cover an unexpected increase in overhead costs. Based on the cost-plus pricing procedure we did in class, answer this question plus the next question. What is the percentage value of the mark-up you will put on Product A? Be careful; I am NOT asking you the value of "1 Plus the Mark Up", I am asking you the value of the mark up.

Tutorial Exercise Worldwide annual sales of smartphones in over a 5 year period were projected to be approximately q = −10p + 4,540 million phones at a selling price of $p per phone. (a) Obtain a formula for the price elasticity of demand E. (b) In one particular year the actual selling price was $277 per phone. What was the corresponding price elasticity of demand? Interpret your answer. (c) Use your formula for E to determine the selling price that would have resulted in the largest annual revenue. What, to the nearest $10 million, would have been the resulting annual revenue? Step 1 (a)Obtain a formula for the price elasticity of demand E. Recall that the price elasticity of demand E is the percentage rate of decrease of demand divided by the percentage increase of price, given by the formula. E = − dq dp · p q We are already given the formula q = −10p + 4,540 for the demand of smartphones (in millions). First, we find the derivative…
