Given:
Current market price of similar guitar 1,200
30% profit on cost.

Sales :   130%
Cost  : <u>- 100%</u>
Profit :   30%

This means that $1,200 is 130% of cost. 

$1,200 / 1.3 = $923.10

Gibson's target cost should be $923.10 to make a 30% profit on cost.

Taxicab fares in most cities are regulated. Several years ago taxicab drivers in Boston obtained permission to raise their feres
Scorpion4ik [409]

Solution:

Let's start by assuming that the taxi ride demand is extremely elastic, to the extent that it is vertically sluggish! If the cabbies raise the fair price by 10% from 10.00 per mile to 11.00 per kilometre, the number of riders remains 20.

Total income before fair growth= 20* 10= 200.

Total income following fair growth = 11* 20= 220.

A 10% increase in the fare therefore leads to a 10% increase in the driver's revenue.

Therefore, the assumption in this situation is that the cab drivers think the taxi driving requirement is highly inelastic.

The demand curve facing the drivers of the cab is still inelastic, but not vertically bent.

When the rate increased from 10% to 11, riders declined from 20% to 19%

Total revenue before fair growth is 20* 10= 200

The gap between revenue and fair growth is 19* 11= 209

This means that a realistic 10% raise doesn't result in a 10% boost on income Because the market curve for taxi rides is not 100% inelastic, but rather low inelastic, so that a fair increase (control) allows consumers to lose their incomes.

jekas [21]

Construction contracts often include a provision awarding damages to the buyer at "X" amount of dollars per day for each day the builder is late in completing the work. The parties to the contract agree on this amount in advance because they know the buyer will incur added costs, or will lose profits, because of the delay. If the amount fixed for the damages is unreasonably high, the court will consider it a <u>Penalty</u>  and will not enforce it.

Explanation:

<u>"Construction Contract" can be defined as  a combination of various  individual documents which focuses on  the different aspect of the project, or it can also be a  multi-page document which contains various  sections that offers details on different aspects of the agreement.</u>

<u />

A construction contract includes

  • Name of contractor and contact information.
  • Name of homeowner and contact information.
  • It describes property in legal terms.
  • The various list of  attachments of the contract.
  • The cost involved
  • Description of the work and its completion date.
  • Right to stop the project.
