The answer is Inelastic.

Given,

the price of gasoline across Brevard County gas stations increases by 8%.

the quantity of gasoline purchased by Brevard County residents decreases by 2%.

The change in quantity demanded of a good or service when divided by the price change in percentage form the price elasticity of demand.

Price elasticity of demand = Percentage change in quantity demanded of gasoline ÷ Percentage change in the price of gasoline

Now, substituting the value in the above formula we get,

Price elasticity of demand = 2% ÷ 8%

                                           = 0.25

Since the price elasticity for gasoline is less than 1 gasoline is inelastic in demand.

Hence, If the price of gasoline across Brevard County gas stations increases by 8% but the quantity of gasoline purchased by Brevard County residents decreases by 2%, then the demand for gasoline is inelastic.

Moody Farms just paid a dividend of $2.65 on its stock. The growth rate in dividends is expected to be a constant 3.8 percent pe
NISA [10]

Answer:

$34.63.

Explanation:

The Gordon Dividend Discount Model will be used to calculate the current share price. This model helps us to determine how much should we pay for a stock and the analysis is based on dividends, growth rate, and our required rate of return. The model is as follows:

Po = D1 / (1 + r )^1 + D2 / (1 + r )^2 + D3 / (1 + r )^3 + D4 / (1 + r )^4 + D5 / (1 + r )^5 + D6 / (1 + r )^6 + [(D7 / r - g) / (1 + r)^6]

where

Po = Current market Price

D1 = Dividend Paid * (1 + g)

D2 = D1 (1 + g) ; D3 = D2 (1 + g) ; D4 = D3 (1 + g) ; D5 = D4 (1 + g)  

D6 = D5 (1 + g) ; D7 = D6 (1 + g)

This implies that:

Po = 2.7507 / (1.15)^1 + 2.8552 / (1.15)^2 + 2.9637 / (1.15)^3 + 3.0763 / (1.13)^4 + 3.1932 / (1.13)^5 + 3.3146 / (1.13)^6 + [(3.4405/.11 - .038) / (1.13)^6]

⇒ Current Market Price = $34.63.

Note: Figures are rounded up-to 4 decimal points. A difference of up-to $2 would not affect your scores as far as the methodology is correct.

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

$135,000

$75,000

Explanation:

Home value = $180,000

Loan to Value ratio = 75%

Formula: Maximum loan amount = Home value x loan to value ratio

Maximum loan amount = $180,000 x 75%

Maximum loan amount = $135,000

If the value of house is $100,000 then,

$100,000 x 75% = $75,000

$75,000 would qualify as Tax deductible interest
