- Q. In an article about the financial problems of USA Today, Newsweek reported that the paper was losing about $20 million a year. A Wall Street analyst said that the paper should raise its price from 50 cents to 75 cents, which he estimated would bring in an additional $65 million a year. The paper's publisher rejected the idea, saying that circulation could drop sharply after a price increase, citing the Wall Street Journal's experience after it increased its price to 75 cents. What implicit assumptions are the publisher and the analyst making about price elasticity?

- In this week’s discussion, we focus on how the market changes when there are changes to the supply or demand of goods and services. (a) “This year the weather smiled on us, and we made a good crop,” said a wheat farmer in Manitoba. “But just as we made a good crop, the economic situation changed.” This quotation brings to mind the saying, “If you are a farmer, the weather is always bad.” How would use economic theory to explain that this saying might be true and what would you suggest the farmer do to make the best of the situation despite good or bad weather? (one paragraph) (b) Along with your textbook reading, review the related videos and article for a background on Canada’s marijuana legalization, then respond to the following questions:Do you see any economic effects not mentioned that might occur in the longer period? What major changes do you see happening with the supply and demand sides of the cannabis market in the long run?

- Read summary about the hula hoop scence: The Hudsucker Corporation has decided to sell the hula hoop for $1.79. We see the toy store owner leaning next to the front door waiting for customers to enter but customers are non-existent. Next, the movie cuts to the president of the company, played by Tim Robbins, and we see him sitting behind a big desk waiting to hear how the launch of the hula hoop is going. It does not go well. The price starts to drop, first to $1.59, then $1.49 and so on down until the hula hoop is "free with any purchase." Even this is not enough to attract consumers. So the toy store owner throws the hula hoops out into the alley behind the store. At his point, it is a fluke that changes the direction of the entire movie. When the hula hoops are tossed into the alley one of them rolls across the street and around the block before landing at the foot of a boy who is skipping school. He picks up the hula hoop and tries it out. He is a natural.
