The price elasticity of baseball bats is −0.77, this indicates that the demand for bats tends to inelasticity. Therefore, if the manager wants to dispose of his inventory, he would advise you not to lower the price because it would cause a decrease in income. He could raise the price and earn more since being an inelastic demand, the quantity demanded would not be modified as much as the price would change.
Answer:
Slapshot Company
The total production is $98,000 with a unit cost of $49 per hockey stick.
The selling price per unit should be above $49 when marked-up.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Direct materials (wood, paint, Kevlar, and resin) $26,000
Direct labor (10 workers x 100 hours x $20 per hour) 20,000
Manufacturing overhead equaled 52,000
Total production costs = $98,000
Production of hockey stick = 2,000 units
Unit cost of hockey stick = $49 ($98,000/2,000)

Answer:
flat rate copay
Explanation:
Copay is generally a fixed amount or a fixed percentage of the medical expense that an insured must pay in order to receive medical attention or services. For example, every time I go to a doctor I pay $40, but if I need other specialized services it ranges from $80 - $120. In this case, this copay is fixed (always $20), so it is considered a flat rate copay.
Answer:
a) 2.1 billion tons/yr
b) 10.5 billion people
Explanation:
Given:
Total arable land = 1.4 billion
Grain produced by each hectare of land = 1 and 2 tons annually
therefore,
The average Grain produced by each hectare of land = 
= 1.5 tons/yr
Therefore,
The total grain produced annually
= average Grain produced × Total arable land
= 1.5 × 1.4 billion
= 2.1 billion tons/yr
b) Sufficient grain for each people = 200 kg
Now,
1 ton = 1000 kg
thus,
2.1 billion tons = 2.1 × 10⁹ × 1000 kg = 2.1 × 10¹² kg
The number of people Earth can support = 
or
The number of people Earth can support = 
or
The number of people Earth can support = 10.5 × 10⁹ people
= 10.5 billion people
