You are a monopolist that sells textbooks to undergraduate students. currently you sell 100 books at a price of $100 each, for revenue of $10,000. each book is essentially costless to print, so you ignore costs and focus on maximizing revenue. based on research by your marketing team, you learn that some students will not buy the book if the price goes up. also, if you cut the price more students will buy the book.

2. if the elasticity of demand is 2, should you raise the price or lower the price? briefly explain without performing any calculations.
