Answer: The Mexican trip with his best friends

Explanation:

Ryan cannot choose both options and thus has to make a decision of which option to take. Therefore he automatically sacrifices the other option. This type of decision is relevant and is known as a relevant cost. Relevant costs are costs that differ between alternatives, and thus influence the decision that you will make.

Opportunity cost is a type of relevant cost. This is the option that is given up / sacrificed when one option (laptop) is chosen over another (Mexican trip). In this case the opportunity cost is the Mexican trip when the laptop is chosen.

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

1.  $832,258.64

2. $616,550.50

3. $476,407.77

Explanation:

As the question is concerned, we are to calculate the Future value for the following data

1. PV = 0

PMT = 1,000

N = 30*12 = 360

I = 5%/12

Future Value = PV (PMT, N, I)

Future Value =  PV(0, 1,000, 360,0.05/12)

Future Value =  $832,258.6354

Future Value =  $832,258.64

2.   PV = 0

PMT = 1,500

N = 20*12 = 240

I = 5%/12

Future Value = PV (PMT, N, I)

Future Value = PV  (0, 1,500,240, 0.05/12]

Future Value = 616,550.5028

Future Value = $616,550.50

3.  PV = 0

PMT = 800

N = 25*12 = 300

I = 5%/12

Future Value = PV (PMT, N, I)

Future Value =  PV (0, 800, 300, 0.05/12]

Future Value = 475,407.7668

Future Value = $476,407.77

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Willingness to pay

Revenue

Two

Elastic

Inelastic

Explanation:

Price discrimination is when a producer or a seller charges different prices for the same product usually in different markets.

In price discrimination, a seller attempts to remove or reduce consumer surplus by charging the consumer at his willingness to pay. For price discrimination to be effective, a seller must be able to estimate the willingness to pay of consumers.

Price discrimination is successful when a seller earns higher profits when she discriminates compared to when she didn't price discriminate.

Price discrimination exists in the airline industry. One of the ways price discrimination exists in the airline industry is through charging to check bags. Customers ( people who board airplanes) are distributed into two groups- those who won't pay to check bags and those who would pay to check bags.

It is assumed that those who would pay to check their bags have a price inelastic demand because they are indifferent to paying an extra amount for their luggage.

Inelastic demand is defined as when a small change in price has no effect on quantity demanded.

While it is assumed that those who won't pay to check their bags have an elastic demand because they are unwilling to pay extra to check their luggages.

Elastic demand is when a change in price has effect on quantity demanded.
