For each of the given events state the relevant elasticity concept. Then compute the measure of elasticity, using average prices and quantities in your calculations. In all cases, assume that these are ceteris paribus changes. After a major failure of Brazil's coffee crop sent brewed coffee prices up from $1.50 per drink to $2.00 per drink, sales of brewed coffee decreased from 16,000 to 14,000 per month. This describes the price elasticity of demand The elasticity is 0.47" (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) When prices of BMWs increase by 10 percent, the annual sales of Hondas increase from 500,000 to 720,000. This describes the cross elasticity of demand The elasticity is (Enter your response rounded to two decimal places.) For each of the given events state the relevant elasticity concept.
