Julli [10]

Answer:

2.2

Explanation:

The formula for calculating price elasticity using the midpoint method is:

midpoint method = {(Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2]} / {(P2 - P1) / [(P2 + P1) / 2]}

midpoint method = {(150 - 100) / [(150 + 100) / 2]} / {(1.20 - 1) / [(1.20 + 1) / 2]}

midpoint method = [50 / (250 / 2)] / [0.20 / (2.20 / 2)] = (50 / 125) / (0.20 / 1.1)  

midpoint method = 0.4 / 0.19 = 2.2

The advantage of using the midpoint method to calculate price elasticity is that we can calculate the price elasticity between two points, and it doesn't matter if the price increases or decreases.

If we calculate price elasticity using the single point formula:

price elasticity = % change in quantity supplied / % change in price = 50% / 20% = 2.5

5. For the following observations, calculate the class width for a histogram.
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Given

The histogram

Required

The class width

The question is poorly formatted, as the histogram cannot be read. So, I will answer your question with the attached histogram

The class width is:

Width = Upper - Lower\ Limits

Using the first class, as reference:

Lower\ Limits = 1

Upper\ Limits = 4

So, the class width is:

Width = 4 -1

Width = 3

One of two alternatives will be selected to reduce flood damage in a rural community in central Arizona. The estimates associate
pochemuha

Answer:

Since the incremental B/C of 58.21 is less greater 1, it implies that the alternative that should be selected is Channel.

Explanation:

The alternative that should be selected can be determined using the Benefit-Cost (B/C) analysis as follows:

Incremental B/C = [Incremental Flood damage savings * ((1 + r)^-3 + (1 + r)^-9 + ((1 + r)^-18)] / [Incremental initial cost + (Incremental Annual Maintenance cost * ((1 - (1 / (1 + r))^n) / r))] ............... (1)

Where:

Incremental initial cost = Channel initial cost - Retention pond initial cost = $1,500,000 - $880,000 = $620,000

Incremental Annual Maintenance cost = Channel Annual Maintenance - Retention pond Annual Maintenance = $30,000 - $92,000 = -$62,000

Incremental flood damage savings = Channel Incremental flood damage savings - Retention pond incremental flood damage savings = $625,000 - $200,000 = $425,000

r = Discount rate = 8%, or 0.08

n = number of years = 20

Substituting all the relevant values into equation (1), we have:

Incremental B/C = [425000 * ((1+0.08)^-3 + (1+0.08)^-9 + (1+0.08)^-18)] / [$620,000 - ($62,000 * ((1 - (1 / (1 + 0.08))^20) / 0.08))]

Incremental B/C = $656,340.35 / $11,274.86

Incremental B/C = 58.2127235166936

Rounding to 2 decimal places, we have:

Incremental B/C = 58.21

Since the incremental B/C of 58.21 is less greater 1, it implies that the alternative that should be selected is Channel.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

test marketing

Explanation:

Test marketing is an experimental test of a product in a real life market. Buyers are studied in live shops or market without them knowing. It is conducted on a small scale to see the effectiveness of a marketing strategy.

When the products do not perform well at the test marketing phase it is assumed it will not also perform well in the real market, so they are termed failed products.
