Question 112.5 pts
Consider the information in Question No.1 and your answers to Questions No.6 to 10. Let's define a "Mark-up Index (MI)" as the difference between profit-maximizing price (P*) and marginal cost (MC), divided by marginal cost:
MI=(P*-MC)/MC
Compute the Mark-up Index for ManuProd International. (Note: Enter your answer below using two decimal points).
Flag question: Question 12
Question 125 pts
In this question, we are going to examine how greater demand elasticity affects the Mark-up Index (MI=(P*-MC)/MC). You are given two alternative demand functions for ManuProd International:
P=250-6.57*Q
P=250-1.65*Q
One of them is more elastic than the demand function in Question No.6. Compute the Mark-up Index under the more elastic demand. (Note: Enter your answer below using two decimal points).
