Which accounts are affected in the closing process under a perpetual inventory system?

When the price of candy bars is $1.00, the quantity demanded is 500 per day. When the price falls to $0.80, the quantity demande

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The demand for candy bars is inelastic

Explanation:

The midpoint rule calculate the price elasticity of demand as percentage change in quantity divided by the percentage change in price:

<u>% change in quantity </u>

$\frac{Q_2-Q_1}{ \frac{Q_2 + Q_1}{2} } \times 100$

The quantity demanded increased from 500 to 600. We have

$Q_1 = 500 \: and \: Q_2 = 600$

$\implies \frac{600 - 500}{ \frac{600 + 500}{2} } \times 100 \\ = \frac{100}{ \frac{1100}{2} } \\ = \frac{100}{550} \\ = \frac{2}{11}$

<u>% change in price</u>

$\frac{P_2-P_1}{ \frac{P_2 + P_1}{2} } \times 100$

The price changed from 1 dollar to 0.8 dollars.

$\frac{0.8 - 1}{ \frac{0.8 + 1}{2} } = - \frac{2}{9}$

Price elasticity if demand is

$\frac{ \frac{2}{11} \%}{ - \frac{2}{9} \%} = - \frac{9}{11} = - 0.82$

The negative sign tells us that there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded.

Since 0.82 is less than 1, the demand for candy bars is inelastic

Madsen Motors's bonds have 18 years remaining to maturity. Interest is paid annually, they have a $1,000 par value, the coupon i

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

$906.30

Explanation:

Face value (FV) = $1000

Coupon payment (C) = 7% of $1000 = $70

Yield to maturity (r) = 8% = 0.08

t = 18

Number of compounding periods (n) = 1 (annually)

Using the relation:

C[( 1 - (1 + r/n)^-nt) / (r/n)] + FV / (1 + r/n)^nt

70[(1 - (1 + 0.08)^-1*18) / (0.08/1)] + 1000 / (1 + 0.08/1)^1*18

70[1 - (1.08)^-18) / 0.08] + 1000 / 1.08^18

70[(1 - 0.2502490)/0.08] + (1000 / 3.99601949918)

70(9.3718871) + 250.24902

= $906.281117

= $906.30

Could I Industries just paid a dividend of $1.62 per share. The dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 20 percent for the n

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the dividend growth model = Do(1+g)/Ke-g

Do=1.62$

G=4%

Ke=12%

Do(1+g)/Ke-g = 2.0736(1+4%)/12%-4%

= 1.6848

The 20% off sale is a better deal than the $200 rebate or $150 coupon for the $1,500 dining set. The Porters budgeted $1,250 for

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:20% off is better and it is the only offer which is under the budget.

Explanation:Given,

The original cost of the dining set = $ 1,500,

If there is a off of 20%,

Then the discount on dinning table = 20% of 1500

= $ 300

So, the final amount of the dinning table after 20% off = 1500 - 300 = 1200 < 1250

Thus, it under the budget.

Now, in $ 200 rebate,

The new cost of the dinning table = 1500 - 200 = $ 1300 > 1250,

Thus, it is not under budget.

While, In $150 coupon,

The new cost of the dinning table = 1500 - 150 = $ 1350 > 1250,

Thus, it is not under budget.
