Answer:

(a) $700

(b) $5.50

Explanation:

Weekly fixed costs = $6,000

Weekly Total meals = Average customers per day × No. of days

                                 = 500 × 6

                                 = 3,000

Fixed cost per meal = Weekly fixed costs ÷ Weekly Total meals

                                  = $6,000 ÷ 3,000

                                  = $2

(a) Lowest price in total = Number of customers × Variable costs for each meal

                                       = 200 × $3.50

                                       = $700

(b) Lowest price = Variable costs for each meal  + Fixed cost per meal

                           = $3.50 + $2

                           = $5.50

Suppose that a jewelry store found that when it increased prices by 10 percent, sales revenue increased by 3 percent. Which of t
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is Demand is inelastic, but not perfectly.

Explanation:

Inelastic demand is that demand that is not very sensitive to a change in price. In this way, before a variation in the price the quantity demanded reacts in a less than proportional way. For example, if the price increases by 10% and in response the quantity demanded is reduced by less than 10%, then the demand is said to be inelastic.

The elasticity of demand, also known as the elasticity-price of demand, is defined as the percentage change of the quantity demanded before a percentage change in the price.
