Wilpen Corporation, a price setting company, manufactures nearly 80% of all tennis balls purchased in the US. Wilpen estimates the US demand for its tennis balls by using the following linear specification:
Q= a + bP + cM + dP (R)
where Q is the number of cans of tennis balls sold quarterly, P is the wholesale price Wilpen charges for a can of tennis balls, M is the consumers' average household income, and P(R) is the average price of tennis rackets.
The regression results are as follows:
Dependent Variable: Q R Square F Ratio P Value on F
Observations: 20 0.8435 28.75 0.001
Variable Parameter Estimate Standard Error T Ratio P Value
Intercept 425120.0 220300.0 1.93 0.0716
P -37260.6 12587 -22.96 0.0093
M 1.49 0.3651 4.08 0.0009
PR -1456.0 460.75 -3.16 0.0060
a). discuss the statistical significance of the parameter estimates a, b, c and d using the p values. Are the signs of b, c and d consistent with the theory of demand.
b). what ist he estimated number of cans of tennis balls demanded:
c) at the values of P, M, and P(R) given, what are the estimated values of the price (E) income (E M) and cross price elasticities (E XR) of demand.
d).What will happen in percentage terms to the number of cans of tennis balls demanded if the price of tennis balls decreases 15 percent.
e). what will happen, in percentage terms, to t the number of cans of tennis balls demanded if the average household income increases by 20 percent.
f).what will happen, in percentage terms to the number of cans of tennis galls demanded if the average price of tennis rackets increases 25 percent.
