Answer:
It is more profitable to maintain the price at $10
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The souvenir sheets cost the postal service $1.15 each. St. Vincent has been selling these souvenir sheets for $10.00 each and ordinarily sells about 61,000 units. To test the market, the postal service recently priced a new souvenir sheet at $11.00 and sales dropped to 51,000 units.
We need to calculate the actual revenue and decide whether it is more convenient to increase the price or leave it as it is.
Actual revenue= 61,000 units* (10 - 1.15)= $539,850
New revenue= 51,000 units*(11 - 1.15)= $502,350
It is more profitable to maintain the price at $10

Answer:
The alignment of numbers in the first part of the question is off. However, you solve this question as shown below. The correct answer is C. $1,124.
Explanation:
This is a one-time cashflow type of question where the principal amount is invested once and no other addition is made to the account. You use the future value formula to solve the result of the compounding effect at year 3.
FV formula;
FV = PV(1+r)^n
PV = 800
discount rate; r = 12% or 0.12
total duration of investment; n = 3
therefore; FV = 800(1+0.12)^3
FV = 800 * 1.404928
FV = 1123.94
To the nearest whole dollar, the amount will grow to $1,124
