Question #73568
The demand equation is estimated to be 50 – 3P + 2Po , where Po is the price of some other good. Assune the average value of P is $ 3 and the average value of Po is $ 6.
a. what is the price elasticity at the average values of P and Po? how should the price of the good be changed to increase total revenues ?
b. what is the cross elasticity at the average values of P and Po? what is the relationship between the two goods?
c. if the equation is correctly estimated, is the good inferiod, a necessity, or a luxury? Explain
