Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Gasoline is a normal good for the consumers. So, if there is an increase in the price of gasoline then as a quantity demanded for gasoline decreases.

Also, quantity demanded for gasoline decreases more in long run than in the short run, this is due to the elasticity of the demand curve. As we know that demand curve for gasoline is more elastic in the long run as compared to the short run.

If the demand curve is more elastic then a little change in the price of a commodity or a good tends to large change in the quantity demanded for that good.

Explain the downside of social media for sports and entertainment marketers
vivado [14]

Answer: Athletes and entertainers must be very careful to think before they tweet or post anything to other social media sites. Because of the immediacy of this type of interaction and the high visibility of celebrities, one social media post could cause a whole lot of damage. Many celebrities have found this out firsthand. Take, for example, the case of Mark Cuban, owner of the NBA Dallas Mavericks. After his team got beat, he used his Twitter account to let off some steam at the referees who apparently—he thought—made some bad calls. His public venting cost him $25,000 in fines from the NBA. When he was notified about the fine, Cuban again used Twitter to vent, posting the following tweet on his profile: “can’t say no one makes money from twitter now. the nba does.”

If during 2009, the country of Sildavia recorded a GDP of $65 billion, interest payments of $15 billion, imports of $13 billion,
Maslowich

Answer:

36 billion

Explanation:

The GDP can be calculated using the income approach in which the output of a country is equal to the total income people receive in that country.

GDP= Compensation of employees + Net interest + Rental income + Corporate profits

From this formula, you can isolate the compensation of employees:

Compensation of employees= GDP-Net interest - Rental income - Corporate profits

Compensation of employees= $65-$15-$7-$7

Compensation of employees= $65-$29

Compensation of employees= $36

The wages during 2009 in Sildavida were: $36 billion.

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

8.78

Explanation:

The computation of the cash cycle is given below;

We know that

Cash cycle = Inventory conversion period + Receivables conversion period - Payables conversion period.

Here

1. Inventory conversion period = Avg. Inventory ÷ (COGS ÷365)

= (11,000) ÷ (395000 ÷ 365)

= 10.16

2. Receivables conversion period = Avg. Accounts Receivable ÷ (Credit Sales × 365)

= (27000/520000) × 365

= 18.95

3. Payables conversion period = Avg. Accounts Payable ÷ (Purchases  × 365)

= (22000 ÷ 395000) × 365

= 20.33

Now the cash cycle is

= 10.16 + 18.95 - 20.33

= 8.78
