You contact an economist who believes there is a 20​% probability the economy will remain​ strong, a 60​% probability the economy will grow at a moderate​ pace, and a 20​% probability the economy will slip into recession.

Answer:

$6,000

Explanation:

The computation of the expected profit from this investment is shown below:

= Strong profit × Strong percentage + Moderate profit × moderate percentage - recession losses × recession percentage

= $60,000 × 20% + $10,000 × 60% - $60,000 × 20%

= $12,000 + $6,000 - $12,000

= $6,000

By adding the three situations we can get the expected profit from this investment

Total revenue:
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

remains unchanged as price increases when demand is unit elastic.

Explanation:

Total revenue = price × quantity

Demand is elastic when a small change in price has a greater effect on the quantity demanded.

If price is increased and demand is elastic, quantity demanded would fall more than the increase in price and total revenue falls.

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.

If price is increased and demand is inelastic, change in quantity demanded would be less than changes in price. As a result, total revenue would increase.

Demand is unit elastic if a change in price has an equal proportional effect on quantity demanded. The elasticity of demand always sums up to one.

If price is increased and demand is unit elastic, there would be no change in total revenue.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

2021

revenues 420,000

gross profit 112,000

2022

revenues  1,680,000

gross profit   65,000

Explanation:

2021:

Cost incurred              308,000

Estimed to complete 1,232,000

Total cost                  1,540,000

Percentage of completion 308,000 / 1,540,000 = 20%

Revenue will be recongize for 20% of the total

2,100,000 x 20% = 420,000

Less Cost               (308,000)

Gross Profit              112,000

For 2022 we recognize the rest as the project is completed

2,100,000 - 420,000 = 1,680,000

Incurred Cost               (1,615,000)

Gross Profit                      65,000

Monica [59]

Answer:

Bad debt expense = $28000

Ending balance = $4000

Explanation:

given data

Credit sales= $800000

Cash collection = $780,000

Write off = $16,000

rate = 3.5 %

to find out

ending balance of Accounts Receivable is​

solution

first we get Bad debt expense that is express as

Bad debt expense = 800000 × 3.5%

Bad debt expense = $28000

and

Ending balance is express as

Ending balance = Credit sales - Cash collection - Write off     ..............1

put here value

Ending balance = $800000  - $780,000 - $16,000

Ending balance = $4000

Data for a Poisson with mean 10 A BigJet flight from Philadelphia to Boston has 60 seats. The high fare is $400 and the low fare
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Consider the following calculations

Explanation:

Co = low fare = $ 100

Cu = high fare - low fare = 400 - 100 = $ 300

Critical ratio = Cu/(Cu+Co) = 300/(300+100) = 0.75

In the table, look for F(q) >= 0.75 , that value is 0.792 and corresponding value of q = 12. Therefore,

Optimal protection level = 12

Refer the table for q=12, Expected shortage, L(q) = 0.5

Expected high fare seats to be sold = Mean demand - Expected shortage = 10-0.5 = 9.5

Probability of a full flight = 0.792
