Answer:
the coefficient of elasticity is 0.5. Thus, demand is inelastic.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Price elasticity = 2/4 = 0.5
Because demand is less than1, big g has an inelastic demand.
I don’t get what your saying
But could u give more explanation
I would suggest it would most likely to be either A or B or both, however if I had to pick one I would go for A.
A - The question suggests you may have been putting more effort and <span>enthusiasm</span> into sales of the products for your new business "<span>you were so excited about the large volume of orders you had" which may mean after your first year of business you may have started to slack of or get complacent with putting you business out there marketing wise, also when launching a product for the first time people are interested in the new and latest thing (such as a new business) after a while people start to forget unless you have marketing and advertising to remind them.
</span>
B - If the product you offer is unique and you were the first business to sale this / these items then after a year it is possible other competitors have started to copy you however this would completely depend on the products you sale.
C - Given you already had large orders in the first year people are happy to pay for the products you offer so this would exclude C.
D - If you have already had many orders in the first year people obviously want the products you sale even if you only sale 1 or 2 things so unlikely to be D.
Answer:
The bad debt expense which should be recorded in the income statement for the year 2019, amounts to $127,600
Explanation:
The bad debt expense which should be recorded in the income statement for the year 2019 is computed as:
= Net Credit Sales × Uncollectible credit sales for the year 2019
where
Net Credit Sales is $290,000
Uncollectible credit sales for the year 2019 is 44%
Putting the values in the above formula:
= $290,000 × 44%
= $127,600
