Get started for freeWhen demand is relatively inelastic and supply is relatively elastic, the burden of a tax will be borne (LO7) a) mainly by sellers b) mainly by buyers c) equally between sellers and buyers d) it is impossible to determine the relative burdens of the tax
If demand is elastic and price is lowered, total revenue will (LO3) a) rise b) fall c) stay the same d) possibly rise or possibly fall
A firm seeking to maximize its total revenue would lower its price until price elasticity of demand was (LO3) a) a maximum b) a minimum c) one
A perfectly elastic supply curve is (LO1) a) a horizontal line b) a vertical line c) neither a horizontal nor a vertical line
Statement 1. A perfectly elastic demand curve has an elasticity of zero. Statement 2. When demand is elastic and price is raised, total revenue will fall. (LO1) a) Statement 1 is true, and statement 2 is false. b) Statement 2 is true, and statement 1 is false. c) Both statements are true. d) Both statements are false.
