Answer:

PED = - 1

Explanation:

The PED or price elasticity of demand measures the sensitivity of quantity demanded to changes in price level. It is calculated by taking the percentage change in quantity demanded, which results from a change in price level, and dividing it by the percentage change in price level.

PED = percentage change in Quantity demanded / Percentage change in price

PED = [(800 - 1000) / 1000]  /  [(12 - 10) / 10]

PED = - 1

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Price of One Bush is $ 23

Explanation:

Suppose

bushes = B

trees = T

According to given condition:

13B + 4T = 487 (Eq: 1)

6B + 2T = 232 (Eq: 2)

Multiplying (Eq: 2) by 2

12B + 4T = 464 (Eq: 3)

Substractign (Eq: 3) from (Eq: 1)

13B + 4T - (12B + 4T) = 487 - 464

13B + 4T - 12B - 4T = 23

B = 23

By putting value of B in (Eq: 1)

(13 x 23) + 4T = 487

299 + 4T = 487

4T = 487 - 299

4T = 188

T = 188 / 4

T = 47

Price of One Bush = B = 23

Ber [7]

Answer:

$462

Explanation:

The computation of the net present value is shown below:

= Present value of all year cash inflows by considering the salvage value - initial investment

where,

Present value of all year cash inflows by considering the salvage value is

= Annual cash flows × PVIFA factor for 4 years at 15% + Salvage value × discount rate at 4 year on 15%

= $54,000 × 2.855 + $11,000 × 0.572

= $154,170 + $6,292

= $160,462

And, the initial investment is $160,000

So, the net present value is

= $160,462 - $160,000

= $462

We simply applied the above formula to determine the net present value

Refer to the PVIFA table and discount factor table

This is the answer but the same is provided in the given option
