Answer:

The demand of a product may increase due to several factors, including a decrease in the product's price, an increase in the price of the competition (substitute products), a decrease in the price of complement, or an increase in consumer income.

The company can only control the price they charge for the product, but they do not control the other external factors. If the supplier is able to increase the quantity supplied, the equilibrium price might not vary at least in the short run. If the external factors continue then the equilibrium will probably increase.

If the quantity demanded for Colgate increases, but the supplier is not able to increase the quantity supplied, then the equilibrium price will increase due to a shortage of the product.

sasho [114]

Answer:

The ticket price that maximizes revenue is $18.10

Explanation:

Hi, first we need to construct the revenue equation in terms of the additional dollar charge (that would be X). That is:

Revenue=Price*Quantity

Revenue=(8.5-X)(1,800-65X)

So we expand it:

Revenue=15,300-552.5X+1,800X-65X^{2}

Revenue=-65X^{2} +1247.5X+15,300

This is a parabola, and we need to find its vertex, which in our case that would be the maximum additional dollar charge in order to obtain the highest revenue possible, to find the vertex, we need to consider that:

Y(X)=AX^{2}+ BX+C

And to find the X-coordenate we have to use the following equation.

Vertex(X)=\frac{-B}{2A}

In our case, A= -65; B= 1,247.5, so, all should look like this:

Vertex (X)=\frac{-(1247.50}{2(-65)} =9.6

That means, we need to make 9.6 increments of $1 in order to obtain the max revenue possible, therefore, the price would be

Price = $8.50 + $1(9.6)= $8.50 + $9.6 =$18.10

Best of luck.

How much total depreciation and amortization expense did Patnode record during 2015?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

d. $5,000

Explanation:

Patnode's information is missing, so I looked it up. I found the balance sheet for 2014 and 2015. Hope that it is the same question:

total depreciation expense for 2015 = change in accumulated depreciation (2015 - 2014) + change in accumulated amortization (2015 - 2014) = ($3,000 - $0) + ($3,000 - $1,000) = $3,000 + $2,000 = $5,000

You just purchased an existing business that produces solar panels according to the following production function:
frez [133]

Answer:

<u>$50</u>

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the production function, Q = K0.5L0.5,

K denotes the fixed input in the short run.

First, we calculate the total cost:

Cost of Capital= 25 x $1 = $25

Cost of Labor (for a start 25 workers are used)= 25 x $1 = $25

Total= $50

Since the price of the solar panels is $100, substrating from the total cost $50 (100-50) we get $50 profit per unit of solar panel.
