- Can you think of any examples of successful predatory pricing in the real world?The Potomac Range Corporation manufactures a line of microwave ovens costing $500 each. Its sales have averaged about 6,000 units per month during the past year. In August, Potomacs closest competitor, Spring City Stove Works, cut its price for a closely competitive model from $600 to $450. Potomac noticed that its sales volume declined to 4,500 units per month after Spring City announced its price cut. What is the arc cross elasticity of demand between Potomacs oven and the competitive Spring City model? Would you say that these two firms are very dose competitors? What other factors could have influenced the observed relationship? If Potomac knows that the arc price elasticity of demand for its ovens is 3.0, what price would Potomac have to charge to sell the same number of units it did before the Spring City price cut?(Categories of Price Elasticity of Demand) For each of the following absolute values of price elasticity of demand, indicate whether demand is elastic, inelastic, perfectly elastic, perfectly inelastic, or unit elastic. In addition, determine what would happen to total revenue if a firm raised its price in each elasticity range identified. Absolut Value Elasticity Effect of Price Increase a b c d
- U.S. pharmaceutical companies charge different prices for prescription drugs to buyers in different nations, depending on elasticity of demand and government-imposed price ceilings.

Explain. Please don,t copy from any where. Use graph and show answer step by step .Answer must be correct. Do answer follow question. Read all part and then answer.Monopoly firms are a lot more profitable than perfectly competitive firms.

- Define the income elasticity of demand What is a normal and an inferior good? Define the cross-price elasticity of demand Compare and contrast monopoly and perfect competition market structure in long-run.Assume lawyer services have an elasticity of demand of 2.0 in absolute value. Currently, a lawyer charges $300 per consultation and she has 100 consultations per week. If she raises her rate to $375 perconsultation (a 25% increase) her revenue wil (use the general formula for elasticity not the midpoint formula)rise from s30.000 per week to $31500 per weekrise from $30.000 per week to $33750 per weekfall from $30.000 per week to $18750 per weekfal from $30,000 per week to s26000 per weekElasticity in the real world—sort of. The managers of a scholarly journal that I edit were thinking of raising the subscription prices. We used to charge individuals $32 for four issues per year and libraries $52 for the same. The managers proposed raising the prices to $45 and $75, respectively. My feeling was that these increases were too small, especially since the prices of substitutes (scholarly journals of a quality similar to ours) were much higher. I suggested that we charge $50 and $85, respectively. I believed that was more sensible, since the demand is quite inelastic over this price range, so with a larger price increase our total revenue would rise further. Apparently the managers agreed, and we raised our prices by the larger amount. Next year our revenue rose, suggesting that my guess about the elasticity of demand was correct. Why do you think the journal charges different prices to libraries? Do individuals have a higher or lower elasticity of demand than libraries?…
- There are three sets of price and quantity below for a firm.P1 = $40 Q1 = 20P2 = $30 Q2 = 40 P1 = 30 Q1 = 40P2= 25 Q2 = 50 P1 = 25 Q1 = 50P2 = 20 Q2 = 60 Given the information above on the four sets of price and quantity 1. Using the price elasticity of demand (PED) formula (using the average formula),calculate the PED for each set of price and quantity demanded change, and determine inabsolute value the range of elasticity? 2. Using the information of above, calculate the total revenue (TR) for each and given theinformation from parts a, b and c, predict the price this firm will charge?Description of the event of fresh milk in TH True Milk company: Elasticity and Its Application - Determine elasticity (may not have data but can be argued qualitatively)Garry Petbarn is currently trading in a market where they face an own-price elasticity of demand which is -1.2.
