5.1 THE PRICE ELASTICITY OF DEMAND <Applications of Price Elasticity of Demand Farm Prices and Total Revenue Price elasticity of demand for agricultural products is 0.4. So a 1 percent decrease in the quantity harvested will lead to a 2.5 percent rise in the price. Demand is inelastic and farmers’ total revenue will increase.

Chapter Nine: Profit Maximization

Chapter 9 Lecture Notes 4 Example: Imagine that demand is given by q = 80 – 2p. To calculate the marginal revenue function, we need to rewrite this so that price is a function of quantity, or:

C) increase due to a negative income elasticity. D) remain unchanged, since the income elasticity of pizza is greater than 0. 4. The total utility of a product is calculated by: A) summing the marginal utility from the first unit of a product that is consumed and the last unit of a product that is consumed.
