Charlie knows his service is <u>perishable,</u> meaning that if no one stays in the room, it generates no revenue that evening.

<h3><u>Perishable services are what?</u></h3>

While not imperishable, services can be thought of as perishable. A perishable service is simply one that is transient. Such a service is best used right away when it is created. The service, unlike products, cannot be saved for later use.

Transportation by planes, auto maintenance, entertainment at theatres, and manicures are examples of perishable services. If a person buys a plane ticket for a certain day, but then gets sick and can't fly, the ticket expires. It is challenging to maintain a balance between supply and demand when a service is perishable.

Tharaldson Corporation makes a product with the following standard costs:Standard Quantity or Hours Standard Price or Rate Stand
Crank

Answer:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $6,270 favorable

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Standard= Direct labor 0.4 hours $ 11.00 per hour

Actual output 2,600 units

Actual direct labor-hours 470 hours

To calculate the direct labor efficiency variance, we need to use the following formula:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

Standard quantity= 0.4*2,600= 1,040

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (1,040 - 470)*11

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= $6,270 favorable

Suppose the current price of a good is $130. At this price, the quantity supplied is 125 units, and the quantity demanded is 165
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Equilibrium quantity: 145

Equilibrium price: $140

Explanation:

In order to find the answer, first we determine the current difference between quantity supplied and quantity demanded.

Quantity supplied - quantity demanded = difference

125 - 165 = -40

So we have a shortage of -40 units.

We have the information that a $1 increase in price increases supply by 2, and decreases demand by 2. Thus, in order to close the shortage, we need a $10 price increase, because this will raise supply by 20 units, and lower demand by 20 units as well, bringing the 40 gap to 0.

For this reason, the equilibrium quantity is 145 units, and the equilibrium price is $140.

Price Elasticity of Supply. The price elasticity of supply is calculated as the percentage change in quantity divided by the percentage change in price.
 Using the Midpoint Method
 PES = ((Q2-Q1) / ((Q2 + Q1) / 2)) / ((P2-P1) / ((P2 + P1) / 2))
 PES = (((10) - (7)) / (((10) + (7)) / 2)) / (((50) - (40)) / (((50) + (40)) / 2))
 PES = 1.59
 the elasticity of beth's labor supply between the wages of $ 40 and $ 50 per hour is approximately 1.59
 In this case, to 1% rise in price causes an increase in quantity supplied of 1.59%
