Given the demand data answer the following questions after estimating your regression model of demand for Good 1. Quantity demanded of Good 1 is given by Q1 and the price of Good 1 is given by P1. The price of Good 2 is given by P2. Use a linear-linear functional form (i.e., do not transform the variables in anyway, such as with natural logarithms). Many economists refer to this as a “lin-lin” functional form. Evaluate elasticities at the sample means...
