Assume that you are the owner of a sports shoe shop in a shopping mall that sells Nike running shoes. From your till slips that indicate your annual sales and from a questionnaire answered by your customers you found the following: The potential amount of shoes that you can sell per year is 6 000 pairs, regardless of whether you change the prices of the shoes or not. If you adjust your price downwards or upwards by 1%, the consumers tend to buy 1.5% either more or less. Your supply curve indicates that you should always keep 500 units in stock and that a 1% change in the price of a pair of shoes tends to increase or reduce the sales of a pair of shoes by 0.5%. 1. Construct your shop's demand and supply functions for running shoes. 2. Calculate the price of a pair of shoes as well as the expected annual sales. 3 Determine the elasticity of demand of your shoes. 4 Would it be worthwhile for you to launch a sale at the end of the month, in other words, would it help you to increase your revenue?
