The shrimp harvest was unusually good this year. the demand curve did not shift from last year, but because of the abundant harvest, the price fell from $100 per sack to $85 per sack. the price elasticity of demand for shrimp is -1.40. what happened to the total revenue of the fishermen? choose the closest answer. (hint: the percentage c

Total revenue for the shrimp industry should increase. Even though price decreased, revenue grows due to the increase in quantity because it is elastic.
