Answer:

Price elasticity of demand for Adam=0

Price elasticity of demand for Barb=1

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand = %age change in demanded QTY / %age change in demanded price

The price is not important for Adam, and he demands a fixed quantity, hence his demand curve is vertical. A perfectly vertical demand curve is can inelastic demand curve and has price elasticity =0

The quantity is not important for Barb, and he demands a fixed price, hence his demand curve is horizontal. A perfectly horizontal demand curve is has price elasticity =1

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

The answer is: A) When the marginal cost of producing an additional unit equals the marginal revenue from that unit.

Explanation:

In economics, we assume that a company´s main goal is to maximize its profit. In order for any company do to this, the marginal cost (MC) of producing an extra unit of production must equal the marginal revenue (MR) obtained by selling that extra unit of production.

Theoretically, in perfect market conditions, MR=MC in the equilibrium point between quantity supplied and quantity demanded. But on real world conditions elasticity of both demand and supply alter the curves.

nalin [4]

Answer:

a. Cash for $180

Explanation:

The receipts from the petty cash fund indicate that the owner of the box made purchases adding up to $177. Therefore that money is no longer part of the fund. Since the fund holds $200 and currently only has $20 then to replenish the account the journal entry would need to include a credit to cash for $180 ... ($200-$20=$180)
