Describe how price affects decisions that consumers make

1 answer:

8 0

The tendency is easily explained. As price goes up, the quantity that consumers demand goes down. This is a common correlation between the price of goods and the willingness of the customers to buy products. All businesses today have to build demand in order to know how much do the customers want in order for them to increase their purchase ability.

The present value Option 1 = $100,000

The present value Option 2 =$97.368,57‬

Explanation:

The formula to calculate Present Values is equal to:

Present Value = FV / (1+r) ∧n

Let´s calculate Present Value for Option 2:

PV1 = $20,000 / (1+0,10) ∧ 1= $18,181.82

PV2 = $20,000 / (1+0,10) ∧ 2= $16,528.92

PV3 = $20,000 / (1+0,10) ∧ 3= $15,026.29

PV4 = $20,000 / (1+0,10) ∧ 4= $13,660.26

PV5 = $20,000 / (1+0,10) ∧ 5= $12,418.42

PV6 = $20,000 / (1+0,10) ∧ 6= $11,289.47

PV7 = $20,000 / (1+0,10) ∧ 7= $10,263.16

PV1 + PV2 +PV3 +PV4 + PV5 + PV6 + PV7 = $97.368,57‬

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Demand for home repair and building supply is INCOME ELASTIC

Explanation:

One reason why many ethical home repair and building supply businesses continue to charge pre-hurricane prices to their customers, even though due to the huge increase in demand they could charge much more. These firms probably recognize that demand for home repair and building supply is INCOME ELASTIC.

Although there was no direct fall in income however the loss of property means a negative impact on already earned income. Hence charging higher prices because of higher demand will be a misunderstanding of the income elasticity of demand.
