Answer:
Explanation:
It means that there must be a huge number of people that have little or nothing.
The most recent estimate of America's population is 331,000,000 roughly
1% of the population is 331,000,000 * 1/100 = 3,310,000
So that means that 3 million people own 33% of 14 trillion in property alone. These numbers are really hard to imagine.
1 trillion has 12 zeros behind it
so 14 trillion has 12 zeros behind it.
3 million people own 1,400.000,000 = 14 000 000 000 000 dollars worth of property.
That means that each person in that group of 3 million is 1 of 14 , 000, 000 in wealth just in property alone. The goods will dilute this somewhat, but I think you get the idea.
3 million people in the United States are multimillionaires, if they own 100% of the property. Of course that isn't true, but I think it's fair to say that they are not poor either.
Answer:
The elasticity of demand for jelly beans is 1.80
Explanation:
The elasticity of demand is the principle of economic which is defined as the measure that extent the consumer response to the changes in the quantity demanded as a consequence of price change and being others factors are equal.
Computing the elasticity of demand for jelly beans as:
Elasticity of demand = Price Change / Quantity Change
where
Price Change is as:
Price = $1.60 + $2.00
= $3.60
Quantity change is as:
Quantity = 120 + 80
= 200
So,
Elasticity of demand = $3.60 / 200 × 100
Elasticity of demand = 1.80

Answer:
we can look at this problem from 2 different point of views:
if you have francs and wish to buy pounds: then you take 12 francs and purchase 1 ounce of gold, and then you sell it for 6 pounds. This way you will only spend 2 francs per each pound instead of 2.2.
if you have pounds and want to make a gain: you take 6 pounds and purchase 13.2 francs and you then buy 1.1 ounces of gold. Then you sell the 1.1 ounces of gold in exchange for 6.6 pounds.
Any of the scenarios does not include any transaction prices nor shipping costs, it is only theoretical.
