The Alimas Bakery Peanut Cookie Dilemma: Balancing Demand and Supply Elasticity
Alimas Bakery, a renowned peanut cookie supplier located in Isabela, has built a reputation
for producing high-quality peanut cookies that are not only beloved locally but also exported
to various countries. The bakery has been experiencing consistent growth in both domestic
and international demand for its peanut cookies.
Alimas Bakery sources its peanuts locally from farmers in Isabela, contributing to the local
agricultural economy. However, the peanut crop in Isabela is susceptible to weather-related
challenges, such as droughts and heavy rains, which can significantly affect peanut yields.
Additionally, global peanut prices have been fluctuating due to various factors, including
international trade policies and climate change impacts on peanut-growing regions
worldwide.
Alimas Bakery faces a dilemma in managing the balance between demand and supply
elasticity for its peanut cookies. On one hand, Alimas Bakery is under pressure to meet the
growing demand for its peanut cookies, both domestically and internationally. To do so, they
may consider raising the price of their cookies to compensate for increased production costs,
including potentially higher peanut prices due to poor local crop yields. However, this price
increase could lead to a decrease in demand, especially among price-sensitive customers and
international buyers.
On the other hand, if Alimas Bakery keeps the prices stable to maintain consumer loyalty
and attract new customers, they may risk experiencing peanut shortages during times of
low local crop yields or facing financial strain due to increased production costs.
Let us help Alima’s Bakery by getting the best amount for income based on price and
demand quantity and determine the equilibrium to the supply and demand.
