Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": ​Increased price elasticity of demand for the DVD player industry because XBOX are substitutes.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand reflects the changes in quantity demanded for a good or service as a result of changes in price. It is calculated by dividing the percentage change in quantity demanded by the percentage change in price. If the result is equal to or greater than one (1) the demand is elastic.<em> It means a minimum change in price has a major impact on the quantity demanded volume. </em>

Thus, <em>if XBOX implements DVD features, DVD players will face an increase in their price elasticity of demand because changing DVD players' prices could change their quantity demanded by far because consumers will prefer purchasing an XBOX which is a substitute.</em>

Explanation:

Computation of net book value

Cost of equipment                                                                             $ 76,800

Less: Accumulated depreciation                                                     $ 40,800

Net book value                                                                                  $ 36,000      

In first step where the equipment is sold of $ 47,000, the differential between the sale value and the net book value is the gain on sale and is credited in the accounting entry.

In the second step, where the equipment is sold for $ 36,000, the sale proceeds is exactly equal to the net book value and no gain or loss is recorded.

In the third step, the equipment is sold for $ 31,000 and the differential  between the net book value and the sale proceeds is a loss and recorded as a debit in the accounting entry
