Assume that the quantity demanded of a particular commodity is estimated to be
D=800p^(-(3)/(2))m^((2)/(3))
where
p
is the price and
m
is the mean income. a. What is the quantity demanded when
p=4
and
m=64
b. Find the price and the income elasticities of demand. Interpret your findings. c. Calculate both absolute and percentage changes in demand when only the price goes up by
1%
. (i.e. keep mean income constant)
