Verizon Wireless recently ran a pricing trial to estimate the elasticity of demand for its services. The manager selected three states that were representative of its entire service area and increased prices by 5% to customers in those areas. One week later, the number of customers enrolled in Verizon’s cellular plans declined 4% in those states, while enrollments in states where prices were not increased remained flat. The manager used this information to estimate the price elasticity of demand for Verizon and, based on her findings, immediately increased prices in all market areas by 5% in an attempt to boost the company’s 2020 annual revenues. One year later, the manager was perplexed because Verizon’s 2020 annual revenues were 10% lower than those in 2019: the price increase apparently led to a reduction in the company’s revenues.


Did the manager make an error? Explain.

Yes, it is likely that cell phone elasticity is considerably greater in the long run than in the short term.

A cellular phone is a type of telecommunication that uses radio waves to send calls over networked areas (cells) and is supported by a base station or cell site at a fixed location. This allows calls to be transmitted wirelessly over long distances to fixed landlines or the Internet.

In this networked system, a cell phone is recognized as a mobile system made up of the hardware and SIM card that actually allows a mobile phone number. Cellphone, mobile phone, and cellular are other terms for cellular phones.

Consider the market for widgets. Widgets are produced in the United States, unless producers aren’t willing to meet the quantity demanded at a particular price. In that case, widgets are imported.

Suppose that the price with free trade is $7. If lawmakers want to ensure that U.S. widget producers can sell at least 8,000 widgets, what might they do?

A consulting engineer has been engaged to advise a town how best to proceed with the construction of a 200,000 water supply reservoir. Since only 120,000 of storage will be required for the next 25 years, an alternative to building the full capacity now is to build the reservoir in two stages. Initially, the reservoir could be built with 120,000 of capacity and then, 25 years hence, the additional 80,000 of capacity could be added by increasing the height of the reservoir. Estimated costs are as follows construction cost, and annual maintenance cost, build in 2 stages first stage 120,000 reservoir $14'200,000 $75,000; second stage add 80,000 of capacity $120600,000 and $25,000 additional construction cost build in full capacity now 200,000 reservoir $22'400,000 and $100,000 if the interest is computed at 4%, which construction plan is preferred?

Annie, a professor of management studies, wants to organize a collaborative project with her students to help them understand various aspects of marketing. She writes down the project goal in a circle in the center of a large sheet of paper. She and her students then brainstorm to identify the tasks that must be done to achieve the goal. She asks the students to write each task in a circle on the sheet and draw lines connecting the various circles. In this scenario, Annie is using a process called:

The Campbell Company is considering adding a robotic paint sprayer to its production line. The sprayer's base price is $820,000, and it would cost another $17,500 to install it. The machine falls into the MACRS 3-year class, and it would be sold after 3 years for $604,000. The MACRS rates for the first three years are 0.3333, 0.4445, and 0.1481. The machine would require an increase in net working capital (inventory) of $15,500. The sprayer would not change revenues, but it is expected to save the firm $338,000 per year in before-tax operating costs, mainly labor. Campbell's marginal tax rate is 25%.
