Topic 1: Price elasticity of demand is an important concept. With appropriate examples, explain how this concept is related to total revenue. (Hint: When providing example, select a product whose demand may be relatively elastic; therefore, lowering its price may lead to increase in total revenue. This will allow other students to choose a different example.) Topic 2: Discuss why a firm may decide to continue producing a good even if its price may be less than the average total cost. (Hint: Refer to the shut-down point and provide a real-world example so others can come up with different examples).

The city of New Orleans has 200 advertising companies, 199 of which employ designers of normal ability at a salary of $200,000 a year. The firms that employ designers of normal ability each collect $500,000 in revenue a year, which is just enough to ensure that each earns exactly a normal profit. However, the 200th company employs Janus Jacobs, an unusually talented designer. Because of Jacob's talent, this company collects $900,000 in revenue a year.
a. How much will Jacobs earn? What proportion of his annual salary will be economic rent?
b. Will the advertising company for which Jacobs works be able to earn an economic profit?
PLSSSS explain each step, so lost!

Tara owns a business that makes decorated facemasks. Using the mid-point method, the % change in price for her premium facemask if she raises her price from $5 to $9 per mask is and the % change in quantity demanded if her sales drop from 300 masks a week to 200 masks a week with this change is . The price elasticity of demand for these facemasks (to 2 decimal pts) is . This elasticity number indicates that demand for these masks is elastic or inelastic? Does revenue for Tara’s business increase, decrease or stay the same when she raises her price to $9? . Knowing this, Tara should charge $ for her masks. At that price, Tara would make $ in revenue per week.
