Question

The demand for good X is estimated to be Qxd = 10,000 - 4Px + 5Py + 2M + Ax, where Px is the price of X, Py is the price of good Y, M is income, and Ax is the amount of advertising on X. Suppose the present price of good X is $50, Py is $100, M is $25,000, and Ax = 1,000 units. What is the own price elasticity of demand for good X?

Step 1

Step 1:** Calculate the quantity demanded for good X using the given values: \[ Q_x = 10,000 - 4P_x + 5P_y + 2M + A_x \] \[ Q_x = 10,000 - 4(50) + 5(100) + 2(25,000) + 1,000 \] \[ Q_x = 10,000 - 200 + 500 + 50,000 + 1,000 \] \[ Q_x = 61,300 \] ** Show more…
