【題目】 Suppose that the price of eggs increases from 75 cents to $1.00 per dozen and as a result a typical farmer experiences a decrease in egg sales from 300 to 200 dozen per week. Using the method of average values, the price elasticity of demand is 3.0 1.4 0.8 1.75
【題目】 Assume that we have a demand curve of the form.log(Q)=a-b×log(P)+c×log(I), where Q=quantity, P=price, I=income, and a, b, and c are positive constants. The income and price elasticities for the demand curve represented above are always equal to zero. equal to one. equal(i.e., income elasticity always equals price elasticity). constant.
【題目】 Suppose there are only two firms supplying in the market and they produce a homogeneous good. Two firms produce the good with the same constant marginal cost. Firms compete by setting price simultaneously . The equilibrium price of both firms must equal to the marginal cost times the markup. be greater than the marginal cost but smaller than the marginal cost times the markup. equal to the average cost. equal to the marginal cost.
