Answer:
C. Fall, 30%, Rise
Explanation:
- Price Elasticity of Demand is responsive change in demand, due to change in price.
P.Ed = % change in demand / % change in price.
Given : Price rise by 50% , P.Ed = 0.6
So, % change in demand = P.ed x % change in price
% change in demand = 0.6 (50)
% change in demand = 30%
Law of demand states negative relationship between price & demand, so P.ed is negative. Price rise 50% reduces demand by 30%.
- P.Ed can be : Elastic ( > 1 ), or Inelastic ( < 1 ). If P.Ed is Elastic, price & total revenue are inversely related. If P.Ed is Inelastic, price & total revenue are directly related.
So, Given PEd = 0.6 (i.e < 1 ) : Inelastic Demand implies price & total revenue are directly related related to each other. So, price fall lead to TR fall & price rise lead to TR rise.
Answer: $11564
Explanation:
Total units consumed for August = 96000
There's a peak demand of 624kw
Also, the May through October is 4.5 cents per kilowatt-hour for energy.
The August electric bill will then be:
= 96000 × 4.5/100 + 624 × 11.50 + 68
= (96000 × 0.045) + (624 × 11.50) + 68
= 4320 + 7176 + 68
= 11564
