- (Calculating Price Elasticity of Demand) Suppose that 50 units of a good are demanded at a price of Si per unit. A reduction in price to $0.20 results in an increase in quantity demanded to 70 units. Using the midpoint formula, show that these data yield a price elasticity of 0.25. By what percentage would a 10 percent rise in the price reduce the quantity demanded, assuming price elasticity remains constant along the demand curve?arrow_forwardFor each of the following, identify where demand is elastic, inelastic, perfectly elastic, perfectly inelastic, or unit elastic: a. Price rises by 10 percent, and quantity demanded falls by 2 percent. b. Price falls by 5 percent, and quantity demanded rises by 4 percent. c. Price falls by 6 percent, and quantity demanded does not change. d. Price rises by 2 percent, and quantity demanded falls by 1 percent.arrow_forwardDerive the following with complete solution Price elasticity of supplya. from l to nb. from o to parrow_forward
- The Organization for the Promotion of Brussels Sprouts has convinced the government of Ironia to institute a price floor on the sale of Brussels sprouts at $8 per bushel. Demand is given by:P = 9 – Qand supply by:P = 2Q,where Q is measured in thousands of bushels.Instructions: Round your answers to the nearest whole number.a. At market equilibrium, the price is $ per bushel and the equilibrium quantity is thousand bushels.b. With the price floor, the price is $ per bushel and the quantity sold is thousand bushels.c. The excess quantity supplied of Brussels sprouts produced with the price floor is thousand bushels.arrow_forwardIn a city with a medium sized population, the equilibrium price for a city bus ticket is $1, and the number of riders each day is 9400. The short-run price elasticity of demand is -0.5, and the short-run elasticity of supply is 1. If the demand for bus tickets increased by 10% because of a rise in the world price of oil, what would be the new equilibrium price of bus tickets?
