The Moto Hotel opened for business on May 1, 2017. Here is its trial balance before adjustment on May 31.

For each scenario, calculate the cross-price elasticity between the two goods and identify how the goods are related. Please use

Leto [7]

Answer:

a. Cross-price elasticity between A and B: 0. Relationship between A and B: No relationship.

b. Cross-price elasticity between C and D: 2.22. Relationship between C and D: Substitute.

c. Cross-price elasticity between E and F: -8.50. relationship between E and F: Complimentary.

Explanation:

a. Cross-price elasticity between A and B: relationship between A and B:

Percentage change in price of A = 20%

Percentage change in quantity of B = 0%

Cross-price elasticity between A and B = 0%/ 20% = 0.00

Relationship between A and B = No relationship

Note: There is no relationship between A and B because the cross-price elasticity between A and B is zero. That is, change in the price of A does not have any effect on the quantity demanded of B.

b. Cross-price elasticity between C and D: relationship between C and D:

Percentage change in price of C = {($4 - $3) / [($4 + $3) / 2]} * 100 = 28.5714285714286%

Percentage change in quantity of D = {(85 - 44) / [(85 + 44) / 2]} * 100 = 63.5658914728682%

Cross-price elasticity between C and D = 63.5658914728682% / 28.5714285714286% = 2.22

Relationship between C and D = Substitute

Note: The relationship between C and D is substitute because the cross-price elasticity between C and D is positive. That is, an increase in the price of C makes consumer to switch to and buy more of D which is a substitute.

c. cross-price elasticity between E and F: relationship between E and F:

Percentage change in price of E = - 2%

Percentage change in quantity of F = 17%

Cross-price elasticity between E and F = 17%/ (-2%) = - 8.50

Relationship between E and F = Complimentary.

Note: The relationship between E and F is complimentary because the cross-price elasticity between E and F is negative. That is, an increase in the price of E makes consumer to buy more less F which is a compliment or use together with E.

Suppose you wanted to closely examine the leaf of a plant. which type of lens would you use? explain

tekilochka [14]

<span>To examine the leaf of a plant, one should use a magnifying glass which holds a convex lens. A convex lens allows parallel light rays to pass through then refracts the rays so they meet on one principal point. This type of lens is useful in seeing something small.</span>

Handy Man, Inc., has zero coupon bonds outstanding that mature in eight years. The bonds have a face value of $1,000 and a curre

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

5.657%

Explanation:

Data provided:

Face value = $1,000

Current market price = $640

Time of maturity, t = 8 year

Now,

the compounding formula is given as:

Face value = Current amount × $(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where,

r is the rate i.e pretax rate of debt

n is the number of times the interest is compounded i.e for semiannual n = 2

thus, on substituting the values, we get

$ 1,000= $ 640 × $(1+\frac{r}{2})^{2\times8}$

or

1.5625 = $(1+\frac{r}{2})^{16}$

or

$(1+\frac{r}{2})$ = 1.0282

or

r = 0.05657

or

pretax cost of debt = 0.05657 × 100% = 5.657%

Lesson 7-1 single payment loans

kondaur [170]

Explanation:

The whole principal plus any debt shall be paid by a single payment lender on the same day the lender expires. Instead of multiple instalments, individual interest loans concurrently calculate the full rate.

When should a single payment loan be considered?

If your loan amount of money is high, if you choose a single payment, you will pay a lower interest.

You might, for example, save $12,000 and try to spend $10,000 on shopping like a holiday or a bell. You don't want to deplete your savings because you have a single credit for payment. This can save more money in the future you will pay $10,000 for the loan without dropping the bank account.
