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.

iragen [17]

Answer:

Spending variance will be equal to -729

We have given wages and salary is $2060 per month plus $442 per birth

We have given total number of birth = 117

So standard cost = $2060+117×$442 = $53774

Actual wages and salary for the month is = $54500

We have to find the spending variance

Spending variance is given by

Spending variance = Standard cost - actual cost = $53774 - $54500 = -729

So spending variance will be equal to -729
