Topic: CONDUCTING MARKETING RESEARCH AND FORECASTING DEMAND Suppose the annual plan called for selling 34,000 widgets in the first quarter at $2 per widget, for total revenue of $68,000. At quarter's end, only 30,000 widgets were sold at $1.80 per widget, for total revenue of $54,000. Based on the Sales-variance analysis, how much of the sales performance is due to the price decline and how much to the volume decline? Note: Sales-variance analysis measures the relative contribution of different factors to a gap in sales performance.

CASE 2. ELASTICITY

In the United States, taxes are imposed on cigarettes at the state level. As a result, there are large differences among states. As of July 1, 2010, three states had cigarette taxes in excess of $3.00 per pack: Rhode Island, Connecticut, and Washington. Seven more had rates between $2.00 and $3.00 (including the District of Columbia). Missouri had the lowest rate among the 50 states at $0.17 a pack. The following article describes a proposal to raise taxes by $1.00 per pack in the state of Washington. We would expect an increase in the tax on cigarettes to increase their price to consumers. An interesting question from the point of view of health and tax revenue is how much a price increase lowers demand. One of the commentators in the article claims that increasing cigarette prices by 10 percent reduces youth smokers by 6–7 percent; this is an implied demand elasticity of –0.6 (6%/10%). How do you think this compares to what we would expect from adult smokers? Many people would argue that because more young people are new smokers and because they have less money than adults, their demand for cigarettes would be more elastic. On the other hand, if peer pressure favors smoking, this could lower demand elasticity for youths. One problem that states face as they increase their cigarette taxes is that people will seek cigarette substitutes from cheaper areas. In Washington, the state pressured Indian tribes to raise the tribal tax rate on cigarettes to the overall state level. By making these substitutes to state-taxed cigarettes more expensive, the loss of customers in response to the state tax increase would be less.

Suppose the quantity demanded for a product is given by  ?=20(?+1)−?/4q=20(A+1)−p/4, where ?p is the price of the good. The good is sold by a monopoly firm with constant marginal cost equal to 20 and fixed cost ?=400(?+1)2f=400(A+1)2. Let ?A be 4 and answer the following:

a) Suppose the firm must charge the same price to all consumers. Derive the profit maximizing price and quantity if the firm were to serve the consumers interested in this good. .

b) Suppose the firm were to charge every consumer the same price. Will the firm find it profitable to operate?

c) Suppose the firm were able to practice perfect price discrimination. What would be the firm's profit in this case? Would the outcome be efficient?

d) What is the efficiency loss of the outcome in part (b) ?
