. The monthly demand for trotro rides in Kumasi, Ashanti depends on the price of a taxi ride, the price of a trotro ride, and the average monthly income of riders. Some consumers might choose to ride the taxi instead of the trotro, while other riders might use both forms of transportation to get to their final destination. The demand function for trotro rides is: Qd = 9,750 – 500P + 250Pj + 5INCOME, where Qd is the number of trotro rides demanded per month, P is the price of a ride, Pj is the price of a taxi ride, and INCOME is the average monthly income of riders. Suppose that P = $1.50, Pj = $4, and INCOME = $3,000. What is the monthly quantity of trotro rides demanded? What is the value of the cross-price elasticity of demand? Based on your answer, are taxi rides and trotro rides substitutes or complements? What is the value of the income elasticity of demand? Based on your answer, are taxi rides an inferior or a normal good?
C2) Company A is the only supplier of glass in Big Apple City used for tall buildings’ exteriors. Its marginal cost of production is cA=1, and it has no other production costs. The demand for such glass in Big Apple city is QD=2-P. Company B in Jersey City produces the same glass and is considering whether to expand to Big Apple city. If it enters, it needs to get a permit to allow it to be a supplier in the Big-Apple city at a cost of L=0.5, which does not vary with quantity of output, and its marginal cost of production is cB=0.5. If it expands to the Big-Apple city, companies A and B both supply to the market, and the market price P satisfies QA+QB=2-P, where QA is company A’s production level and QB is company B’s. a) If company B expands to the Big-Apple city, what is the resulting price in a Nash equilibrium? b) Company B hires a consulting company to advise whether it should expand to the Big-Apple city. If you’re running the consulting company, what is your advice? Explain…

An airline company determines the price of a seat on a particular route between city A and city B to be p = 200 + 0.02n, where p is the airfare price in euro and n is the number of airplane seats sold per day. The travel demand for this route by air has been found to be n = 4700 – 20p a)Determine the equilibrium price charged and the number of seats sold per day, and the resulting revenues of the company.

The travel time (t) on the segment of a highway connecting city A with city Bhas been observed to follow the equation below, as a function of traffic flow(v): t = 15 + 0.02v, where t and v are measured in minutes and vehicles perhour, respectively. The demand function for travel connecting the two cities isv = 3500 – 120t.a) Determine the equilibrium time and traffic flow.b) If the length of the highway segment is 30 kilometres, what is the averagespeed of vehicles traversing this segment at equilibrium conditions?
The estimated daily demand for river corssings on a proposed new bridge is: Qd = 100,000 - 20,000P where Qd is the quantity demanded measured in number of daily crossings and P is the price(toll) per crossing in dollars. Engineers estimate that constructing the new bridge will result in a fixed cost of $1.2 billion or $120,000 per day over the life of the bridge. Once constructed, there are no marginal costs and variable costs associated with the bridge's use. Based upon the above information, answer the following questions: a. If a private company were to build the bridge, what would be the profit-maximizing number of daily crossings? b. What price per crossing(toll) would the profit-maximizing company establish? c. What would be the socially optimal number of daily crossings? d. What deadweight loss would exist given your answers to part (a) and (b)? e. Would a profit-maximizing company build the bridge?
A pharmaceutical company Eureka Bio has discovered a corona vaccine that can be produced at constant marginal cost of R10. The company has entered into dosage demand of QA=200-PA, and country B has dosage demand QB = 160-PB. a. Suppose that country A has high infection rates, determine the price that Eureka Bio can charge country A and B to prevent a resale between countries. b. If Eureka Bio is the only pharmaceutical company that was successful in developing vaccines, determine the dosage that will be sold to both countries. What will be Eureka's profit?
A major South African city generates electricity and sells it to its consumers. The city faces competition from independentrenewable power producers who also have licences to sell electricity to the public. The city however has cost advantagesdue to its size, but it is concerned of the political and economic ramifications of raising its tariffs, in these uncertaineconomic times. As a result, it is highly likely that tariffs will remain unchanged over the next financial year. The city’smarginal revenue is given as R3 000, and its costs are given as follows:TC = R82 000 + R1 000 + 0.01q2 MCMC= R1 000 + R0.02q4.1 Assess the efficiency arguments in favour of and against the renewable energy generation in SouthAfrica
Estimated Demand Function:ln(Q) = -6.758 – 2.116ln(P) + 1.331ln(l) – 0.44ln(A) + 2.99ln(Psub) + 0.908ln(Pop) Suppose we are charging a price of $2 and our current marginal cost is $1.50. Are we maximizing profits at this price? If not, should we raise or lower price? Why?
An entrepreneur named Khadijah has total revenue shown by the equation TR = 150Q - 5Q² and total costs shown by the equation TC = 20 - 10Q. Determine the amount of output that must be produced by Khadijah to get the maximum profit and what is the maximum profit from that amount of output. Prove that the value obtained is the maximum!
You are hired as a consultant at a revenue management firm and one of ourrecent clients wished to determine the optimum price for their consumer electronics product.The cost of the product is $100 and before retaining us, they had been selling the product at$200 because it felt like a nice round number. The current sales volume is 1000 units peryear. We examined the market preferences and buying behavior, and concluded that thiscompany’s marketplace has a price elasticity of 1 (i.e. Assume that an x% change in pricewill result in an x% change in sales volume for any x). What is the optimal price thatmaximizes total profit for this company? What are the sales volume, total revenue and totalprofit at the optimal price?
