Answer: Coefficient of elasticity of supply is 0.75.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness of quantity supplied to a change in the price of the good. It can be measured using the percentage point method,

e_{s} = \frac{Percentage change in Quantity supplied}{Percentage change in price}

=\frac{15}{20}

=0.75

Therefore, coefficient of elasticity of supply is 0.75. Since it is less than 1 we can infer that supply for this good is relatively inelastic.

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

0.0416483 or 4.16%

Value of toys sold = $200,000

Note period = 90 day

N = 365 ÷ 90

= $200,000 × [1 - (0.04 × 90/360)]

= $198,000

Effective annual financing cost:

=(\frac{Value\ of\ toys\ sold}{Calculated\ value} )^{\frac{365}{90} }-1

=(\frac{200,000}{198,000} )^{\frac{365}{90} }-1

= 1.0416483 - 1

= 0.0416483 or 4.16%
