Answer:
B. a small percentage decrease in price produces a larger percentage increase in quantity demanded and total revenue increases.
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.
Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
Demand is elastic if a small percentage decrease in price produces a larger percentage increase in quantity demanded . Total revenue would increase because the percentage increase in Quanitity demanded exceeds the percentage decrease in price.
If demand is elastic, a small percentage increase in price produces a larger percentage decrease in quantity demanded and total revenue increases.
Here, total revenue falls because percentage decrease in price exceeds the percentage increase in price.
Demand is inelastic if a small percentage decrease in price produces a smaller percentage increasein quantity demanded.
Demand is perfectly inelastic if the quantity demanded remains the same regardless of level of price.

Answer: Option 'b' is correct.
Explanation:
The lowest point on a purely competitive firm's short run supply curve corresponds to the minimum point on its MC curve.
As we know the relation between ATC, AVC, AFC, MC.
1) when AC > MC then, MC rises,
2) When AC = MC, then AC reaches its minimum point.
3) When AC < MC , then MC falls.
And MC falls at higher rate than AC,
So, MC reaches its minimum point first and it is the lowest point for perfect competition.
Hence, Option 'b' is correct.
slope of this demand curve for pizza = <u>-1/40</u>
<h3>
Briefly explained</h3>
Slope = changes in y/ changes in x
The shop sells 200 more pizzas if the price drops by $5 ($10 to $5). (100 to 300 pizzas) A good's quantity is always on the x-axis and its price is always on the y-axis. According to our justification, the cost is REDUCED by $5 (a reduction of -$5) and the quantity of pizzas sold rises by 200. The slope is therefore <u>-5/200 or -1/40.</u>
<h3>
What is demand curve?</h3>
The demand curve is a graphical depiction of the connection between the cost of a commodity or service and the quantity required over a specific time period.
The price will often be shown on the left vertical axis in a representation, and the amount needed will typically be shown on the horizontal axis.

Answer:
$18,480
Explanation:
Cost of van = $51,000
Useful life = 5 years
Salvage value = $4,800
Using the straight line, Annual depreciation
= (51000 - 4800)/5
= $9,240
Using the Double-declining balance method,
Annual depreciation = 2 × 9,240
= $18,480
Answer:
(a) Annual dividend = Dividend rate × par value × number of shares outstanding
= 7% × $60 × 40,000
= $168,000
Semi‑annual dividend = 
= 
= $84,000
(b) Annual dividend = Dividend rate × number of shares outstanding
= $5.20 × 171,600
= $892,320
Arrears of $892,320 are owed for last year as well, so the total dividends owed would be:
$892,320 × 2 years
= $1,784,640
(c) Annual dividend = Dividend rate × stated value × number of shares outstanding
= 4.8% × $100 × 445,000
= $2,136,000
Quarterly dividend = = 
= 
= $534,000
