An increase in the price of laptop computers will decrease the quantity demanded of laptop computers.(option b)

<h3>What is the impact of an increase in price?</h3>

The law of demand postulates that there is an inverse relationship between price and the quantity demanded of a good. This means that if price of the good increases, the quantity demanded of the good declines. If price declines, the quantity demanded increases.

Thus, if the price of laptop increases, the quantity demanded of the good would decline. Only changes in the price of a good affects the quantity demanded of that good.

Here are the options:

Assuming everything else stays the same, an increase in the price of laptop computers will _____ of laptop computers.

a. decrease the quantity demanded

b. increase the demand

c. increase the quantity demanded

d. decrease the demand

A company has only two divisions: division a and division

Sloan [31]

Answer – Division A

EXPLANATION’

Given for last year,

Division A made 60% of the company's total revenue.

Let the company’s total revenue for last year be x

60% of x = 0.6x

Division A made 0.6x last year

Also given for last year,

Division B made 40% of the company's total revenue.

If the company’s total revenue for last year is x

40% of x = 0.4x

Division B made 0.4x last year

For this year,

We are told that division A's revenue has decreased by 35%

Last year’s revenue was 0.6x

Division A’s revenue for this year = 0.6x – (35% of 0.6x)

= (100% of 0.6x) – (35% of 0.6x)

= (100% * 0.6x) – (35% * 0.6x)

= (100% - 35%) * 0.6x

= 65% * 0.6x

= 65/100 * 0.6x

= 0.39x

Therefore this year, Division A’s revenue is 0.39x

Again for this year,

We are told that division B's revenue has decreased by 5%

Last year’s revenue was 0.4x

Division B’s revenue for this year = 0.4x – (5% of 0.4x)

= (100% of 0.4x) – (5% of 0.6x)

= (100% * 0.4x) – (5% * 0.4x)

= (100% - 5%) * 0.4x

= 95% * 0.4x

= 0.38x

Therefore this year, Division B’s revenue is 0.38x

If Division A’s revenue is 0.39x, and Division B’s revenue is 0.38x; then Division A had higher revenue this year.

A sporting goods manufacturer budgets production of 45,000 pairs of ski boots in the first quarter and 30,000 pairs in the secon

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The budgeted materials need in kg. in the first quarter is 90,000 kg

Explanation:

For computing the budgeted material needed in the first quarter, first we have to calculate the consumption of first and second quarters separately, so that we can arrive to a solution.

The consumption of first quarter = Budgeted production × required kg

= 45,000 × 2

= 90,000 kg

The consumption of second quarter = Budgeted production × required kg

= 30,000 × 2

= 60,000 kg

The ending raw material inventory = 30% of second quarter

= 30% × 60,000

= 18,000 kg

Now put the formula to find out the purchase amount. The formula is shown below:

Raw material consumption = Opening raw material inventory + purchase of raw material - ending raw material inventory

where,

beginning inventory = 18,000 kg

90,000 = 18,000 + purchase - 18,000

So, the purchase is 90,000 kg

The question has asked the amount in kg so cost per kg is irrelevant.

Hence, the budgeted materials need in kg. in the first quarter is 90,000 kg
