Computing the changes in quantity

Reference no: EM1316265

Given the demand function, for the given price changes.

Suppose a firm has the following demand equation: Q = 1,000 - 3,000P + 10A
Where Q = quantity demanded
P = product price (in dollars)
A = advertising expenditure (in dollars)

Assume for the questions below that P = $3 and A = $2,000.

a. Suppose the firm dropped the price to $2.50. Would this be beneficial? Explain. Illustrate your answer with the use of a demand schedule and demand curve.

b. Suppose the firm raised the price to $4.00 while increasing its advertising expenditure by $100. Would this be beneficial? Explain. Illustrate your answer with the use of a demand schedule and a demand curve.

(Hint: First construct the schedule and the curve assuming A = $2,000. Then construct the new schedule and curve assuming A = $2,100.)
