  1. Given this demand curve for coffee in lbs, Q1 = 2 -1*p1 + 0.5* p2 + .01*Y +ε1, where Q1 is the demand for coffee and p1 is the price of coffee per lb, p2 is the price per lb of a related good and Y is the consumer’s weekly budget (20 points)
  1. Which variable is the dependent variable and which are independent variables and why?
  1. What does each coefficient (parameter) mean as they apply to changes in demand for coffee?
  1. What does ε1 mean? Why is it in the equation?
  1. Is good 2 a complement or substitute? (Explain your answer.)

Draw a demand curve that shows an decrease in price (from P1 to P2) and the corresponding change in quantity demand (from Q1 to Q2) leaving the revenue unchanged. Use the graph to show the initial and the final revenue. Make sure that the area indicating the revenue is, in fact, constant. Add a (simple) scale to your axes and calculate the initial revenue, the loss and gain in revenue due to the price increase, and the final revenue.
