Solved Based On The Elasticity Data in Table 3 7 Discuss Why

Based on the elasticity data in Table 3.7, public health officials advocate for cigarette taxes to reduce teenage smoking because demand is elastic, while governments use these taxes to raise revenue because demand is inelastic. You are given price elasticity, income elasticity, and cross price elasticity for your product. Total revenue is calculated using the demand curve formula and marginal revenue is the slope of total revenue. Raising price by 10% when price elasticity is -0.5 would be expected to increase total revenue, as demand is inelastic in this range. Lowering production costs, decreasing computer prices, or increasing semiconductor prices would be expected to increase the supply of computers.
