McCulloch v. Maryland represented a power struggle between the State and Federal law. It was a landmark decision by the Supreme Court of the United States. The state of Maryland had attempted to impede operation of a branch of the Second Bank of the United States by imposing a tax on all notes of banks not chartered in Maryland. Though the law, by its language, was generally applicable to all banks not chartered in Maryland, the Second Bank of the United States was the only out-of-state bank then existing in Maryland, and the law was recognized in the court's opinion as having specifically targeted the U.S. Bank.
Answer:
The demand for Post Raisin Brand cereal is: ELASTIC
the demand for all types of breakfast cereals is: INELASTIC
Explanation:
To calculate the price elasticity of demand (PED) we can use the following formula:
PED = % change in quantity / % change in price
- If PED > 1, the demand is price elastic
- If PED = 1, the demand is price unitary
- If PED < 1, the demand is price inelastic
*The PED always results in a negative number, e.g. price deceases, quantity increases, but for practical reasons we convert the negative number into a positive (we use absolute values) when we are determining the elasticity.
