The final decision was to melt all but 10,000 coins, which would be sold to collectors at £10 each. The Chancellor of the Exchequer Sajid Javid suggests that melting the coins is costly, and taxpayers will foot the bill. However, the marginal cost of melting 10,000 coins is negligible, as is the value of the metal used to produce it. a. Suppose that the Bank of England’s goal was to maximize profit, and it did so optimally. Given the zero marginal cost of melting an additional coin, what can be said about the elasticity of demand for October 31 Brexit memorial coins at the current (optimal) price?b. Assuming the demand is linear, derive the demand curve. In other words, find and in abthe equation .=a―bP
