Jaycee jeans sold 40 pairs of jeans at a price of $40. when it lowered its price to $20, quantity sold increased to 60 pairs. calculate the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand? use the midpoint formula.

0.6

Explanation:

Initial Units sold, Q1 = 40 pairs

Initial Price, P1 = $40

Final price, P2 = $20

Final units sold = 60 pairs

Now,

Using the midpoint formula,

the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand

price elasticity of demand =

or

price elasticity of demand =

or

price elasticity of demand =

or

price elasticity of demand =

price elasticity of demand =  0.6

answer; /// (b) i believe its that is paid to state and federal taxing authorities;

typically a loft will include modern kitchen and bathrooms, this increases the price tag. lofts also have a good amount of open space, this requires more heating and electricity. lofts are also in older buildings, this means that maintaining the location increases the bill. keep in mind this is without talking about the high state and property taxes.

i hope this you! : )
