Question: Below is a mathematical demand function for new Cadillac’s sold per year for a dealer.
\[{{Q}_{C}}=200-0.01{{P}_{C}}+0.005{{P}_{L}}-10{{P}_{G}}+0.01Y+0.003A\]where:
P C = the average price of Cadillac’s
P L = the average price of Lincoln Continentals
P G = the price of gasoline
Y = the average family income
A = dollars spent annually on advertising.
-
Find the point price elasticity of demand if P
C
= $11,000, P
L
= $10,000, P
G
= $0.60
Y= $6,000, and A = $2,000. - Is the price elasticity of demand elastic, unitary elastic, or inelastic? Why?
- Find the arc cross elasticity of demand for Cadillac’s and Continentals between P L = $10,000 and P L = $9,000. [All other figures except Q, remain the same as part (a)
- Are Cadillac’s and Lincolns substitutes or complements? Why?
