1.Ā  Your consultant service, Brainiac Consulting, has been hired by new Mayor Michael Fougere of the City of Regina to examine the City of Regina Transit (bus) serviceā€™s pricing system for monthly bus passes.Ā  Mayor Fougere wants to know if the current pricing scheme employed by the Transit system for monthly passes is in the public interest.Ā  If not, he wants recommendations on what price to charge for the monthly passes.Ā Ā  The Mayor had the Manager of City of Regina Transit, Louis P. Zerr, send the following transit data to you.Ā 

Ā The City of Regina Transit is a monopoly bus service that has two different types of riders:

1.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Senior citizens ā€“ these are people that are aged 65 or greater.Ā  On average, 1,000 senior citizens purchased monthly passes each month.

2.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Non-senior citizens ā€“ these are people less than the age of 65.Ā  On average, 3,600 non-senior citizens purchased monthly passes each month.Ā 

Zerr also indicates that City of Regina Transitā€™s marginal cost is constant at $10 per passenger with a monthly pass and the City of Regina Transit has no fixed costs.Ā 

Despite the fact that he thought seniors were less willing to pay for monthly passes, Zerr priced monthly passes at $20 per pass for both seniors and non-seniors because he felt that it was too much bother to price them differently.Ā  He justified this policy by arguing that the City of Regina Transit made a profit from the monthly bus passes given the marginal costs noted above.

a) Given the above information, confirm or deny Zerrā€™s claim that the monthly bus passes are profitable for the City of Regina Transit system by calculating the total revenue, total cost and profit (or loss).Ā Ā 

SaveUmoney Tax Services (STS) is a small operation that offers tax services to individuals and small businesses. A local marketing consultant has estimated the weekly demand for STS's services as follows: Q = 1200 - 6 P + 25 A where: Q = the number of tax returns prepared per week P= price A= advertisement (the number newspaper ads) Presently STS charges (on average) $50 per tax return and each week places 12 ads in a local newspaper. Each newspaper ad costs $150. a. How many tax returns does STS prepare each week? b. What is the price elasticity of demand at the price of $55, assuming the number of ads remains the same (at ten)? c. What is the elasticity of demand with respect to advertisements? d. At what price level does the demand curve intercept the price axis? e. At what quantity level does the demand curve intercept the quantity axis? f. Is STS maximizing its revenue? Explain? g. The marketing consultant recommends that STS increase the number of its ads to 25 ads per week and (to pay for the additional ads) raise its price. Do you agree with this recommendation? Explain. h. Assuming STS's objective is to maximize its total revenue, what price should it charge after it has increased the number of its newspaper ads to 40 ads per week? i. Now suppose the firm's total and marginal cost are as follows: TC = 6500 + 20 Q (The cost function includes advertising costs.) MC = 20 Assuming the number of ads remains at 25, what price should STS charge to maximize its profit? j. Calculate STS's profit at this price.
