Answer:

1-The four characteristics of the price system are that it is neutral, market driven, flexible, and efficient. It is neutral because prices do not favor the producer or the consumer because the they both make choices that determine the equilibrium price.

2-Why is the price system an efficient allocator of economic resources? Prices are neutral, which means they are equally fair to both consumers and producers. They are flexible which means they can adapt to changing economic conditions. Prices are familiar which means that everyone understands how they work.

3-how do prices serve as signals and incentives to producers to leave a particular market? it showed that when a strong competitor offers similar products for lower prices other producers must also lower their prices. Less efficient companies were driven from the market.

4-demonstrates the effects of competitive pricing because it shows how the company strategically lured customers away from rival producers while still making the highest profit.

Answer:

The change in net operating income after the changes by $14,200

Explanation:

For computing the change in net operating income, first, we have to compute the contribution per unit which is shown below:

Contribution per unit = Selling per unit - variable cost per unit

                                   = $190 per unit - $76 per unit

                                   =  $114 per unit

where,

The selling per unit = (Sales revenue ÷ number of units)

                                = ($190,000 ÷ 1,000 units)

                                = $190 per unit

The variable cost per unit = (variable cost ÷ number of units)

                                           = ($76,000 ÷ 1,000 units)

                                           = $76 per unit

Now the change in operating income equals to

= (increased sales units × contribution per unit) - advertising cost

= (300 units × $114 per unit) - $20,000

= $34,200 -$20,000

= $14,200 increase
