Answer: quantity demanded; price of the goods

Explanation:  

Elasticity measures how much one economic variable responds to changes in another economic variable. The price elasticity of demand measures how responsive quantity demanded is to changes in price.

The price elasticity of demand is equal to the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price. If the quantity demanded changes more than proportionally when price changes, then the price elasticity of demand is greater than 1 in absolute value, and demand is elastic. If the quantity demanded changes less than proportionally when price changes, then the price elasticity of demand is less than 1 in absolute value, and demand is inelastic. If the quantity demanded changes proportionally when price changes, then the price elasticity of demand is equal to 1 in absolute value, and demand is unit elastic.

Perfectly inelastic demand curves are vertical lines, and perfectly elastic demand curves are horizontal lines. Relatively few products have perfectly elastic or perfectly inelastic demand curves.

In terms of income elasticity of demand, a value greater than one implies that the percentage change in the quantity demanded of the good is greater than the percentage change in income.

Review stocks and bonds and describe how they differ in regards to corporate financing. Discuss common stock and preferred stock
Fudgin [204]

Explanation:

A preferred stock is a share of ownership in a public company. It has some qualities of a common stock and some of a bond. The price of a share of both preferred and common stock varies with the earnings of the company. Both trade through brokerage firms.

Bond prices, on the other hand, vary with the company's ability to pay. The difference is that preferred stocks pay an agreed-upon dividend at regular intervals. This quality is similar to that of bonds. Common stocks may pay dividends depending on how profitable the company is. Moreover, Prefered stocks dividend are often higher than the common stock.

Reasons why countries avoid specialization​
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Countries specialize in order to increase their trade. Imagine a country that has specialized in rubber production and suddenly other more efficient synthetic products have replaced rubber. That means that the demand of rubber has fallen. This would create the country to face labor unemployment, lack of trade for rubber, a long period of stagnant growth indirectly effecting the economy adversely.

Therefore countries prefer to go along with trade and avoid specialization so as to avoid period of stagnant growth.

Orion Flour Mills purchased a new machine and made the following expenditures: Purchase price $ 63,000 Sales tax 5,400 Shipment
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

Before recording the journal entry, first we have to determine the total cost which is shown below:

= Purchase price + sales tax + Shipment of machine + Installation of machine

= $63,000 + $5,400 + $880 + $1,760

= $7,1040

Now the journal entry would be

Equipment A/c Dr $7,1040

Prepaid insurance A/c Dr $580

            To Cash A/c                $3,220             ($880 + $1,760 + $580)

            To Accounts payable $68,400            ($63,000 + $5,400)

(Being the expenditure and equipment value is recorded)
