Based on your estimate of price elasticity of demand what would you recommend as far as raising or lowering the price to enhance sales? (TR test).

Finally, identify some complements and substitutes for the product. How strong do you think the cross-price elasticities are likely to be? Based on what you have written, if you were selling this product, what measures, prices, or data would you try to keep track of if you wanted to predict how your sales might change over time?
