Your marketing department just undertook a major advertising campaign promoting the quality of your Best Brand Bike Shorts—BBB Shorts
Your marketing department just undertook a major advertising campaign promoting the quality of your Best Brand Bike Shorts—BBB Shorts.
They have provided you with an estimate of the success of the campaign stating: "the price elasticity of demand has decreased from-5.76 to -3.76."
Before the campaign, your price was $240 per pair of BBB Shorts. What should the new price be?
Expert Solution
Price elasticity of demand before promotion= -5.76
Price elasticity of demand after promotion= -3.76
Optimal price (1), Before promotion;
Price (1)= Marginal cost/ (1+ (1/ Price elasticity of demand before promotion) .........Equation (1)
Optimal price (2), Before promotion;
Price (2)= Marginal cost/ (1+ (1/Price elasticity of demand after promotion) .......Equation (2)
Divide equation 2 with equation 1;
(Price (1)/ Price (2))= (1+ (1/ Price elasticity of demand before promotion))/ (1+ (1/Price elasticity of demand after promotion))
Price (2)= Price (1)* (1+ (1/ Price elasticity of demand before promotion))/ (1+ (1/Price elasticity of demand after promotion))
Put the values of given parameters;
Price (2)= 240* (1- (1/ 5.76))/ (1- (1/ 3.76))
= 240*( 0.826389/ 0.734043)
= 270.19
