ways meaning: if you prefer Bud Light to Coors Light, but Coors Light to Budweiser than you prefer Bud Light to Budweiser. The second assumption determined by economists focuses on the budget constraint. The consumer has a various amount of income, which then gives them a
that you work for the maker of a leading brand of low-calorie, frozen microwavable food that estimates the following demand equation for its product using data from 26 supermarkets around the country for the month of April. Option 1 Note: The following is a regression equation. QD = - 5200 - 42P + 20PX + 5.2I + 0.20A + 0.25M Your supervisor has asked you to compute the elasticities for each independent variable. Assume the following values for the independent variables: Q = Quantity demanded of 3-pack
Demand Estimation Name Institution Demand Estimation Computation of Elasticities With the following regression equation, we can compute the elasticities of demand with respect to each independent variable as follows: QD = -3,750 - 100P + 25A + 50PX + 8Y (5,234) (2.29) (525) (1.75) (1.5) R2 = 0.90 n = 26 F = 35.25 Price Elasticity of Demand (PED) Price elasticity of demand is given by the formula PED= ΔQD/ΔP.P/QD. Given a regression
Assignment 1: Demand Estimation Brian McGee ECO550 Managerial Economics and Globalization Dr. Rolle Jan. 16, 2015 Compute the elasticities for each independent variable QD = -5200-(42*500)+(20*600)+(5.2*5500)+(0.2*10000)+(0.25*5000) QD = -5200 - 21000 + 12000 + 28600 + 2000 + 1250 QD = 17650 Price elasticity (EP)= EP = -1.19 (1.19) Formula: EP = -42*500/17650 Competitor price elasticity (EPX)= 0.68 Formula: EPX = 20*600/17650 Income elasticity (EI)= 1.62 Formula: EI = 5.2*5500/17650
falls to Rs 11 per bottle, the customers who are indifferent between the two will shift their demand from coke to pepsi. An Increase in the price of its substitutes( thumbs up, pepsi, limca, mirinda, sprite, mountain dew etc ) the demand for coke will rise and vice versa. Advertisements and Promotions The advertisements and promotional schemes undertaken by the Company also majorly affects the demand of the product. For example we have seen that public figures like Hrithik Roshan or Aamir Khan
percent, by how much does the quantity of household ( a) natural gas and ( b) electricity change in the short run and in the long run? ( Hint: Use the price- elasticity values in Table 4- 3.) In general, . Using the numbers we have Short-run Long-run Gas Electricity 11. [5 points] Suppose that the cross- price elasticity of demand between McIntosh and Golden Delicious apples is 0.8, between apples and apple juice is 0.5, between apples and cheese is 0.4, and between apples and beer is
Assignment #1: Demand Estimation Richard W. Gaines Strayer University ECO 550 – Managerial Economics and Globalization Dr. Diana G Bonina October 24, 2017 Assignment #1: Demand Estimation Employ this regression equation: Qd= -5200 - 42P + 20PX + 5.2I + 0.20A + 0.25M and compute independent variable elasticities for a leading brand low-calorie, frozen microwavable food company using the following information. Q = Quantity demanded (3-pack units) P = Price = 500 cents PX = Leading competitor’s
compute the elasticity of each independent variable given the values and determine the implications for each computed elasticity. I will also be making recommendations on whether the firm should make any changes in price to increase its market share while outlining the significant factors that can affect supply and demand of a product. Elasticity is the most “commonly used measure of the responsiveness of quantity demanded or supplied to changes in any of the variables that influence the demand and supply
the quantity demanded falls by 5%, then there will be a. an increase in the price elasticity of demand. b. an increase in the price elasticity of supply . c. a shift in the demand curve. d. a decrease in revenue. 2.___A___If an increase in the price of a good leads to no change in the quantity demanded, then the demand for the good is a. perfectly
Keynesians Money demand is stable Money demand is unstable Low interest elasticity of money demand High interest elasticity of money demand High interest elasticity of investment Low interest elasticity of investment Velocity of money is stable Velocity of money is unstable They support monetary policy They support fiscal policy Reasons for these differences: Money demand: Monetarists Friedman’s money demand function is written as: M = Md = k (rB, rE, rD) PY Md = Money Demand P = Price Level
