- 2. The gains and loss from selling one more unit Sean's Fire Engines is the sole seller of fire engines in the fictional country of Pyrotania. Initially, Sean produced seven fire engines, but he has decided to increase production to eight fire engines. The following graph shows the demand curve Sean faces. As you can see, to sell the additional engine, Sean must lower his price from $100,000 to $50,000 per fire engine. Note that although Sean gains revenue from the additional engine he sells, he also loses revenue from the initial seven engines because he sells them all at the lower price. Use the purple rectangle (diamond symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue lost from the initial seven engines by selling at $50,000 rather than $100,000. Then use the green rectangle (triangle symbols) to shade the area representing the revenue gained from selling an additional engine at $50,000.Francine is a a dental floss tycoon living in Montana.

In January 2020, Starbucks raised their beverage prices by an average of1% across the U.S, a move that represented the company’s firstsignificant price increase in 18 months. I failed to notice because the pricechange didn’t affect grande or venti (medium and large) brewed coffeesand I don’t mess with smaller sizes, but anyone who purchases tall size(small) brews saw as much as a 10 cent increase. The company’s thirdquarter revenue rose 25% to $417.8 million from $333.1 million a yearearlier, and green coffee prices have plummeted, so what gives?Starbucks claims the price increase is due to rising labor and non-coffeecommodity costs, but with the significantly lower coffee costs alreadyimproving their profit margins, it seems unlikely this justification is the truereason for the hike in prices. In addition, the price hike was applied to lessthan a third of their beverages and only targets…
