Travis Kellenberger AGEC 700 Problem Set #3 2) The demand curve for a product is given by Qdx = 1‚200-3Px- .01Pz‚ where Pz = $300. a) What is the own price elasticity of demand when Px = $140? Is demand elastic or inelastic at this price? What would happen to the firm’s revenue if it decided to charge a price below $140? At the given prices‚ quantity demanded is 750 units: Qdx = 1‚200- (3 *140) -.1 (300) = 750. -140/750=-.56; demand is inelastic at this price point and you would be decreasing
