Answer:

0.37, the demand is inelastic.

Explanation:

% change in price = $6- $2 = ($2 / $6) * 100 = 33%

% change in demanda =  800 - 700 = (100/800) * 100 = 12.5%

PED = 12.5 / 33 = 0.37.

The formula to calculate the PED is %change in demand / %change in price, and if we apply the formula according to the information provided, we found that the PED is 0.37. If the PED is between 0 and 1, we can conclude that we have an inelastic demand.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

C. 95380 equivalent units

Explanation:

Equivalent units is the term used for proportionately equally completed units. This is basically used for allocation of overheads.

Here, actually completed that is 100% complete units = 85,500 units

Further units under work in process = 49,400

Which are 20% complete.

This means that incomplete 49,400 units = 49,400 \times 20% = 9,880 units 100% complete

Thus, total equivalent units = 85,500 + 9,880 = 95,380 units.

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

C. strictly liable for Will's injuries

Explanation:

In law, Strict liability is a situation when defendant is required to be responsible to a certain situation, but can't be considered as guilty to any violation.

There are two points that need to be highlighted from the case above:

1.  Astor Manufacturing process has fulfilled all of its safety regulation for storing the dangerous product.

2. The dangerous product owned by Astor Manufacturing caused William's injury.

The regulations for hazard management is created by the government, and the leak is not caused by their negligence. It's caused by unexpected natural disaster.  This is why we can't say that Astor is guilty to any violation.

But still, the chemical that they created injured William. The court will most likely force Astor to be responsible for all the medical expenses incurred by william.
