The price of apples rises from $1.00 per pound to $1.50 per pound. As a result, the quantity of oranges demanded rises from 8,000 per week to $9,500 per week. Answer the following questions: What is the % change of quantity of oranges demanded? What is the % change in the price of apples? Compute the cross-price elasticity. Is the cross-price elasticity positive or negative? Are the two goods substitutes?

Suppose the price of pork fell from $3.00 to $2.50 per pound. Over the same period, the CPI (which reflects the price of all consumer goods) increased by 10%. What is the percentage change in price (%) that we should use to calculate the price elasticity of demand for beef? (Hint: Recall that we use the midpoint formula to calculate elasticities.)
