  11. OPPORTUNITY COSTS The value of the best alternative which must be given up in order to get something. = • You could buy you and 4 of your friends a tall Caramel Macchiato for the price of one large Starbucks tumbler. • Imagine how many you could buy for the price of aStarbucks Barista Digital Italia™ Espresso Machine(price-$995)

  12. Opportunity Costs • Costs of Goods sold / year = $ 2.25 Billion • Starbucks could Sacrifice the amount spent on buying foreign coffee makers and spend more on coffee to increase quality or flavors • Advertising For starbucks

  13. SUBSTITUTES • A good that can be used in place of some other good and fulfills more or less the same purpose. • Substitutes for Starbucks include: • Seattle’s Best • Gloria Jean’s Coffees • Small, independently owned coffee shops • Café Bean • The Barista Café

  14. SUBSTITUTES • Starbucks sells many substitutes for coffee • ~Tea • ~Non-Coffee Beverages • ~Bottled Drinks • Substitutes for cream and sugar ~ Non-fat milk ~ Equal ~ Half and Half ~ Sugar ~ Whole milk ~ Sweet n’ Low

  15. Substitution Effect • As the price of Starbucks coffee decreases relative to the price of its substitutes, then people will substitute Starbucks for the other goods P The demand for Starbucks coffee will increase, or shift to the right S D2 D1 Q

  16. Complements • A good that is used together with some other good • Coffee Cream/Sugar • Tea Scone/Muffin • Ground Coffee Coffee Makers / Mugs / CD’s

  17. Factors of Demand • Input Prices • Number of Sellers • Expectation of Sellers • Prices of Alternate Goods • Technology

  18. Examples of Ceteris Paribus Factors of Demand Price D2 D1 D3 Quantity

  19. Short Run & Long Run Short Run~ A time horizon over which at least one of the firm’s inputs cannot be varied Long Run~ A time horizon long enough for a firm to vary all of it’s inputs

  20. Fixed Costs in the Short Run Fixed Costs: quantity remains constant, regardless of how much output is produced • Capital • Rent • Utilities

  21. Variable Costs in The Long Run Variable Costs: quantity can change as level of output changes • Labor • Natural Resources • Employees

  22. Explicit Cost vs. Implicit Cost • Explicit: money actually paid out for the use of inputs • Implicit: the costs of inputs for which there is no direct money payment

  23. Price Elasticity • Measure of how responsive quantity demanded is to price %Δ Quantity Demanded % Δ Price

  24. Price Elasticity • There are three basic determinants • Number and closeness of substitutes • The fewer substitutes, the more inelastic • The fraction of the budget of the buyer • The smaller the fraction, the more inelastic • The period of time • The shorter the period of time, the more inelastic

  25. Profit Maximization • Goal of any company • Key to maximizing profit • MC = MR • Marginal Cost • Marginal Revenue

  26. Profit Maximization • Profit = Total Revenue – Total costs In 2003: Revenues = $4,075,522,000 Costs = $3,807,176,000 Profit = $268,346,000
