Answer:

The good is considered a necessity.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand is a measure of the sensitivity of demand for a good or service to changes in the price of that product. We say that the price elasticity of demand is elastic when a percentage change in the price of this good has major impacts on demand. On the contrary, we say that the price elasticity of demand is inelastic when variations in the price of goods have little or no influence on demand.

Usually elastic goods are those that can be replaced, so that rising prices cause a drastic drop in demand that will flow to another product. For example, if the price of the burger rises, consumers may stop buying burgers and substitute pizza (assuming these products are substitutes). On the contrary, if the good is needed, it usually tends to be inelastic, that is, the price increase does not considerably decrease the demand, because consumers need this good. For example, medicines.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

1) Direct material price variance= -5,000 or $5,000 unfavorable

2) Direct material quantity variance= $5,000 unfavorable

3) Actual price= $0.5122

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Units produced= 200,000

Units sold= 200,000

Direct material used= 410,000

Standard quantity= 2 units of raw material

Budgeted cost= $0.5 per raw material unit

Total Raw material variance= $10,000 unfavorable

First, we need to calculate the direct material quantity variance:

Direct material quantity variance= (standard quantity - actual quantity)*standard price

Direct material quantity variance= (400,000 - 410,000)*0.5

Direct material quantity variance= $5,000 unfavorable

Now, we can determine the direct material price variance:

Total direct material varaince= Direct material quantity variance + direct material price variance

10,000= -5,000 +

direct material price variance= -5,000 or $5,000 unfavorable

Finally, we can calculate the actual price per raw material unit:

Direct material price variance= (standard price - actual price)*actual quantity

-5,000= (0.5 - actual price)*410,000

-5,000= 205,000 - 410,000actual price

210,000/410,000= actual price

$0.5122=actual price
