Which set of personal qualities is essential for a good manager?

For a particular good, a 12 percent increase in price causes a 3 percent decrease in quantity demanded. Which of the following s

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

b.The good is a necessity

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price

3% / 12% = 0.25

When the coefficient of elasticity is less than one, demand is inelastic.

Inelastic demand means that when price increases, there is little or no change in quantity demanded.

Necessity goods are goods that are very important to consumers and thus they tend to have an inelastic demand. For example, medications.

Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good because of their similarity. E.g. butter and margarine

Goods with many substitutes have an elastic demand. If price of a good increases, consumers can easily shift consumption to substitute goods.

Narrowly defined goods have an elastic demand because it is easier to find subsituites for such goods.

Demand is more elastic in the long run because consumers have more time to search for substitutes.

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

$12,500

Explanation:

Budgeted cash receipts refer to the money that the company expects to receive in a specific period of time.

Budgeted cash disbursements are the payments that the company expects to make in a specific period of time.

$19,500+190,500-191,000= 19,000

Then, you have to subtract 19,000 from 31,500 to determine the amount that the company needs to attain its desired ending cash balance:

31,500-19,000= 12,500

According to this, the company should borrow $12,500.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

C : $686

Explanation:

The computation of the cash received amount is shown below:

= ($1,000 - $300) × (100 - 2%)

= $700 × 98%

= $686

Since the payment is made within 30 days, so the company could avail the discount of 2% and the return goods should be deducted so that the actual amount of cash received can come.

mina [271]

Answer:

$5.89

Explanation:

The computation of current dividend per share is shown below:-

(Dividend in One Year) ÷ Current Price

= 14% ÷ 2

= 7%

Dividend = Dividend yield × Stock currently sold per share

= 0.07 × $90

= 6.3

Current dividend per share = Dividend ÷ (1 + Dividend yield)

= 6.3 ÷ (1 + 0.07)

= 6.3 ÷ 1.07

= $5.89

Therefore for computing the current dividend per share we simply applied the above formula.

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Redemption of Old Bonds

4-30-17 Bonds Payable $311000 Dr

Loss on Bond Redemption $26550 Dr

Discount on Bonds Payable $11000 Cr

Cash $326550 Cr

Issuance of New Bonds

3-30-17 Cash $314110 Dr

Premium on Bonds Payable $3110 Cr

Bonds Payable $311000 Cr

Explanation:

Redemption of Bonds Payable

The maturity value for bonds payable is equal to the face value of these bonds. This means that the face value of old bonds was $311000.

The bonds were carrying a discount. Thus, the carrying value of bonds was

Carrying value = Face value - Discount

Carrying value = 311000 - 11000 = $300000

Bonds with a carrying value of $300000 were redeemed at 105% of the face value. The cash paid for redemption is,

Cash paid = 311000 * 105% = 326550

Thus, there was a loss on redemption of = 326550 - 300000 = $26550

Issuance of Bonds Payable

The bonds were issued at 101% of the face value which means they were issued at a premium.

The amount of premium on these bonds is,

Premium = Carrying value - Face value

Premium = 311000 * 101% - 311000

Premium = $3110
