x=10000+.00002I - 2000px
where px is the price of eggs
i is the mean income of the area in thousands
Initially, i =50,000 and px =3.00
What is the elasticity of demand given the price and income combination?
Suppose the price goes up to $4, using consumers surplus, estimate the welfare loss to consumers when the price goes from 3 to 4 with income fixed at 50,000
