If price changes by a larger percentage than quantity demanded (i.e., if demand is price inelastic), total revenue will move in the direction of the price change. ... Demand is unit price elastic, and total revenue remains unchanged. Quantity demanded falls by the same percentage by which price increases.
Answer: Integrated Communications Unit
Explanation: The Integrated Communications Unit is one of the NIMS characteristics that allows units from diverse agencies to connect, share information and achieve situational awareness.
The Integrated communications unit includes:
1. The “hardware” systems that transfer information.
2. Planning for the use of all available communications frequencies and resources.
3.The procedures and processes for transferring information internally and externally.
Communications needs for large incidents may exceed available radio frequencies. therefore, other communications resources like cell phones or secure phone lines can be the only communications methods used to coordinate communications and to transfer large amounts of data effectively.
Answer:
a) 3X + 2Y = 36
b) X = 6 , Y = 9
c) 27
Explanation:
Individual consumes : X and Y
Spends : $36 per time period
unit cost : $3 per unit for X
$2 per unit for Y
utility function : U( X, Y ) = .5XY
<u>A) Budget equation mathematically</u>
X* Px + Y* Py = M
3X + 2Y = 36
Px and Py = unit cost for X and Y
M = Total spent ( revenue )
<u>b) Values of X and Y that will maximize utility </u>
Maximum utility ( MRS ) = Px / Py ,
MRS = MUx / MUy
= Y/X = 3/2
∴ 2Y = 3X
From BC : 6X = 36 ( X = 6 plug into mathematically equation above )
∴ X = 6 , hence Y = 9
<u>c) Total utility generated per unit of time </u>
U( X,Y ) = .5XY
= 0.5 * 6 * 9 = 27
Answer:
pat should drive if saving half an hour is worth $0.50 or more
Explanation:
Marginal cost is the additional cost generated by producing an additional unit of output.
Marginal cost of taking the bus = 1 / 2 = 0.50
Marginal utility is the additional utility derived from consuming one more unit of a good
Marginal utility per good = marginal utility / price of the good
Pat should take the action that would yield him the highest utility given the marginal cost
So,pat should drive if saving half an hour is worth $0.50 or more
