19 Real-World Factors That Cause Shifts 1-19
20 Class Work NOTE: I reward those who give me answers in five minutes! 5marks in 5 minutes Solving for Equilibrium Algebraically 1. Suppose the demand for take-out pizzas in a modest-size city is represented by the following question: Qd=64,000-3,000P and the equation for the supply curve's: Qs= -20,000+4,000P a. What does the slopes of the above two equations tells us? Does it confirms the law of supply and demand? b. Calculate the equilibrium price and quantity? c. Calculate the surplus if price is fixed at P=$15. d. Calculate the shortage if price is fixed at P=$10. e. Do you think these shortage and surplus persist in the market for the long duration? Why?
21 Utility Theory Assumptions About Consumer Preferences More is better. Consumers rank-order desirability of products. Utility functions relate well-being to consumption. Marginal utility shows added benefit of a small increase in consumption. Marginal utility is usually positive, MU>0. Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility Marginal utility eventually declines for everything.
22 Indifference Curves Basic Characteristics Higher indifference curves are better. Indifference curves do not intersect. Indifference curves slope downward. Indifference curves are concave to origin. Perfect substitutes are products that satisfy the same need, e.g., car models. Perfect complements are products consumed together, e.g., cars and tires.
23 Figure: Indifference curves show mkt baskets of goods and services that provide the same utility Managerial Economics 2013 Block Course by MFZ,TUT
24 Figure: Prefect Substitutes and Perfect Complements
25 Budget Constraints Basic Characteristics Show affordable combinations of X and Y. Slope of P X /P Y reflects relative prices. Effects of Changing Income and Prices Budget increase (decrease) causes parallel outward (inward) shift. Relative price change alters budget slope. Income and Substitution Effects Income effect changes overall consumption. Substitution effect alters relative consumption.
26 Figure: Consumption Effects of Changes in Budget and Relative Prices (a) An increase in budget results in a parallel outward shift in the budget constraint. (b) A price cut allows purchase of a greater quantity with a given budget
27 Fig: Income and Substitution Effects Following a Reduction in the Price of Goods (a) A price change will result in both income and substitution effects Managerial Economics 2013 Block Course by MFZ,TUT
28 Individual Demand Price-consumption curve shows consumption impact of price changes. Reflects movement along demand curve. Income-consumption curve shows consumption impact of income changes. Reflects shift from one demand curve to another. Engle curves plot income and consumption. Normal good consumption rises with income. Inferior good consumption falls with income (rare).
29 Fig: Price-Consumption Curve Show How Changing Prices Affect Optimal Consumption (a) Market baskets that maximize utility for various service prices trace cut the price-consumption curve. (b) Part (b) illustrates the individual demand curve for services Managerial Economics 2013 Block Course by MFZ,TUT
30 Fig: Engle Curves Plot Income and Consumption
31 Fig: Income-Consumption Curves show How Changing Income affects Optimal Consumption
32 Optimal Consumption Marginal Rate of Substitution (MRS) MRS XY = -MU X /MU Y and equals indifference curve slope. MRS XY shows tradeoff between X and Y consumption, holding utility constant. MRS XY diminishes as substitution of X for Y increases. Utility maximization requires: -P X /P Y = MU X /MU Y, or -MU X /P X =- MU Y /P Y. Slope of an Indifference Curve= slope of a budget constraint
33 Fig: Optimal Market Basket for Consumption The optimal path for consumption is found when Px/Py=MUx/MUy
34 Elasticity Elasticity of demand is the responsiveness of buyers (in terms of buying decisions) to changes in the price of the product Elasticity coefficient: Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded Percentage Change in Price If demand is elastic: Coefficient will have an absolute value greater than 1 Any percentage change in price causes a larger percentage change in quantity demanded If demand is inelastic: Coefficient s absolute value will be some fraction less than 1 Any percentage change in price causes a smaller percentage change in quantity demanded 2-34
35 Elastic and Inelastic If the market price for gasoline was to rise from $1.25 to $2.00, the quantity demanded in the market decreases insignificantly (from 8 to 7 units). If the market price for tacos rises from $1.25 to $2.00, the quantity demanded in the market decreases significantly (from 8 to 1 unit). Taco demand is highly sensitive to price changes and can be described as elastic; gasoline demand is relatively insensitive to price changes and can be described as inelastic Demand Curves Gasol ine Tacos
36 Elastic and Inelastic If the market price for motor oil was to rise from $1.25 to $2.00, the quantity supplied in the market increases insignificantly (from 7 to 8 units). If the market price for burgers rises from $1.25 to $2.00, the quantity supplied in the market increases substantially (from 1 to 8 units). Burger supply is highly sensitive to price changes and can be described as elastic; motor oil supply is relatively insensitive to price changes and can be described as inelastic Supply Curves
37 Elasticity measures sensitivity. Point elasticity shows sensitivity of Y to small changes in X. X = Y/Y X/X. Arc elasticity shows sensitivity of Y to big changes in X. E X = (Y 2 Y 1 )/(Y 2 +Y 1 ) (X 2 -X 1 )/(X 2 +X 1 ).
38 Price Elasticity Formula Point price elasticity, P = Q/Q P/P. In all cases, P < 0. P Price Elasticity and Total Revenue Price cut increases revenue if P > 1. Revenue constant if P = 1. Price cut decreases revenue if P < 1.
39 Elasticity Varies along Demand Curve As price rises, so too does P. As price falls, so too does P. Price Elasticity and Price Changes MR > 0 if P > 1. MR = 0 if P = 1. MR < 0 if P < 1. P Managerial Economics 2013 Block Course by MFZ,TUT
40 Fig: Price Elasticity of Demand Varies Along a Linear Demand Curve
41 Fig: Relation Among Price Elasticity and Marginal,Average,and Total Revenue In the range in which demand is elastic with respect to price, marginal revenue is positive and total revenue increases with a reduction in price. In the inelastic range,marginal revenue is negative and total revenue decreases with price reductions.
42 Optimal Price Formula MR and P are directly related. MR = P/[1+(1/ P)]. Optimal P* = MC/[1+(1/ P )]. Determinants of Price Elasticity Essential goods have low P. Nonessential goods have high P.
43 Cross-price elasticity shows demand sensitivity to changes in other prices. PX = Q Y /Q Y P X /P X. Substitutes have PX > 0. E.g., Coke demand and Pepsi prices. Complements have PX < 0. E.g., Coke demand and Fritos prices. Independent goods have PX = 0. E.g., Coke demand and car prices.
44 Income Elasticity of Demand Income elasticity shows demand sensitivity to changes in income. I = Q/Q I/I. Normal goods have I > 0. Noncyclical normal goods have 0 < I < 1, e.g., candy. Cyclical normal goods have I > 1, e.g., housing. Inferior goods have I < 0. Very rare. Managerial Economics 2013 Block Course by MFZ,TUT
