•Suppose two consumers can choose to contribute or free-ride on a public good that can clean up the air.
•To monetarize the benefit, if a consumer contributes to the public good, it generates 50% of the amount the consumer pay.
•For example, if $100 is contributed, the consumer can get back a benefit of $150.
•As the public good is non-exclusive, the benefit is evenly share between the two consumers.
•Form a game matrix and determine the Nash.

You are the manager of a theater. At present, the theater charges the same admission price of $8 to all customers, regardless of age. You propose a two-tier pricing scheme: $5 for children under the age of 12 and $10 for adults. You tell your supervisor that your proposal is likely to increase revenue. "What must be true about the price elasticity of demand if your proposal is to achieve its goal of raising revenue?
1) Explain the concepts of cross-price elastic of demand, using one of the examples in the table above. What does a positive or negative value indicate? When doing elasticity of demand what is the sign always for a normal good?
2)Explain the concepts of income elasticity using one of the items in the table above. What does a positive value indicate? What about a negative value indicate?
3) When the price of Bob’s Coffee House increased by 8 percent, the quantity demanded of Alex’s Coffee House increased by 10 percent. What would be the cross- price elastic of demand between Bob’s & Alex’s coffee? What is the relationship between these two goods (are they compliments?)
4) Suppose the current price of oil is $90 a barrel and the quantity supplied is 800 million barrels per day. If the price elasticity of supply for oil in the short run is estimated at 0.5, use the midpoint formula to calculate the percentage change in quantity supplied when the price of oil rises to $98 a barrel.

The Red Hen company is launching its new food for sale in supermarkets throughout Michigan. The sales department is convinced that its spicy chicken soup will be a great success. The marketing department is considering an intensive advertising campaign. The advertising campaign will cost $2,000,000 and if successful produce $9,600,000 in added revenue. If the campaign is less successful (25% chance), the added revenue is estimated at only $3,600,000. If no advertising is used, the revenue is estimated at $7,000,000 with probability 0.7 if customers are receptive and $3,000,000 with probability 0.3 if they are not.
Question 1. Write an equation to calculate the expected value for each decision as a function of the probability that the major advertising campaign will be effective (p)?
