completely empty. What would change if seats were sold at the lowest prices? Highest prices? Variable prices? When tickets are placed at the lowest prices‚ the law of demand states there would be an increase in ticket sales to the game. The revenue would therefore be higher. If the prices were placed at the highest prices‚ the demand would be elastic and very few people would be willing to pay for the tickets. They may not be as willing to pay for them because of their budget limitations and their

1. Compute the elasticities for each independent variable. Note: Write down all of your calculations. When P = 500‚ C = 600‚ I = 5500‚ A = 10000 and M = 5000‚ using regression equation‚ QD = -5200 - 42*500 + 20*600 + 5.2*5500 + 0.2*10000 + 0.25*5000 = 17650 Price elasticity = (P/Q)*(dQ/dP) From regression equation‚ dQ/dP = -42. So‚ price elasticity EP= (P/Q) * (-42) = (-42) * (500 / 17650) = -1.19 Likewise‚ EC = 20 * 600 / 17650 = 0.68 EI = 5.2 * 5500 / 17650 = 1.62
