2. Suppose a designer shoe company knowns their inverse-demand curve for each individual is
P = 500-100Q and that their cost function is C(Q) = 100Q. That is, the marginal cost to produce a pair of shoes is $100.

a. The company is considering using an advanced pricing technique to raise revenue, and is considering a buy one get on 25% off promotion.

i. What type of pricing scheme is this?

ii. What price should be charged for the first pair of shoes and what price should be charged for the second pair (remember, 25% off the first pair)? How much profit will the company make? Compare this to part a. Have they increased their profit?

iii. Illustrate graphically the profit from the pricing scheme in part b on the diagram below. Be sure to label all relevant points.

Assume that the oil industry is in a long-run competitive equilibrium at a price of $100 per barrel, and that the oil industry is constant-cost. Use a carefully labeled set of two graphs to explain what would happen in the long run to the number of firms and to the production of each firm as a result of the drop in price from $100 to $76, assuming it reflected a decrease in demand. Be sure to define constant-cost and describe what it means for the long-run supply curve.

Suppose the price of a pound of limes in 1794 was 4 shillings and 100 thousand pounds were bought and sold.  In 1796 the price had increased to 6 shillings and the quantity bought and sold was 250 thousand pounds.

a. Draw and fully label a graph of the market for limes to illustrate what is going on in this situation.  Label the quantities and prices given in the question as equilibrium prices and quantities for each year.

b. The price is going up and the quantity bought is going up too. Does this situation refute the law of demand? Explain.

c. Calculate an own-price elasticity for limes using the information in the problem.  Use the midpoint formula. Show your work! Does your answer indicate elasticity, inelasticity, or unit elasticity?
