Answer: The correct answer is "D. the benefit of lower prices to be greater than the cost of reduced services and less convenience.".
Explanation: Consumers obviously consider the benefit of lower prices to be greater than the cost of reduced services and less convenience.
Discount and no-frills airlines have less costs to cover so they can offer lower and more affordable prices for consumers. These airlines have been successful because it turns out that consumers value or prefer the lower price rather than the additional services.

Answer:
The demand for Jim’s product is elastic
Explanation:
In this question, we are to calculate the price elasticity of demand for the product.
We proceed as follows;
The formula for calculating elasticity of demand is
e = [(Q2 - Q1) / {(Q1 + Q2) / 2}] / [(P2 - P1) / {(P1 + P2) / 2}]
Here, Q2 = 6000
Q1 = 8000
P2 = $250
P1 = $200
e = [(6000 - 8000) / {(8000 + 6000) / 2}] / [($250 - $200) / {($200 + $250) / 2}]
e = [(- 2000) / 7000] / [(50 / 225]
e = - 1.3
That means absolute value of e is 1.3.
So, as the absolute value of e is more than 1 (i.e., 1.3), that means the demand for the product is elastic.
Answer:
37.25%
Explanation:
Average total common stockholders' equity:
= (Beginning common stockholders' equity + Ending common stockholders' equity) ÷ 2
= ($530,000 + $490,000) ÷ 2
= $510,000
Return on Equity = Net income ÷ Average total common stockholders' equity
= $190,000 ÷ $510,000
= 0.3725
= 37.25%
