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.

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

a) NPV = $43,874.65

b) IRR = 24.37%

c) payback period = 5.33 years

d) equivalent annual cost = $6,024.55

e) equivalent annual savings = $13,298.61

f) since the NPV is positive, the equivalent annual savings must be higher than the equivalent annual costs

Explanation:

initial outlay year 0 = -$45,000

net savings year 1 = -$1,400 + (4,200 x $2) = $7,000

net savings year 2 = -$1,400 + (4,200 x $2.50) = $9,100

net savings year 3 = -$1,400 + (4,200 x $3) = $11,200

net savings years 4 - 20 = -$1,400 + (4,200 x $3.50) = $13,300

discount rate = 12%

using a financial calculator:

NPV = $43,874.65

IRR = 24.37%

payback period = 5.33 years

equivalent annual cost = (present value of costs x 12%) / / [1 - (1 + 12%)⁻ⁿ] =[($45,000 + $10,457.22) x 12%] / [1 - (1 + 12%)⁻ⁿ] = $6,654.87 / 0.89633 = $7,424.57

equivalent annual savings = (present value of savings x 12%) / / [1 - (1 + 12%)⁻ⁿ] = ($99,332.87 x 12%) / / [1 - (1 + 12%)⁻ⁿ] = $11,919.94 / 0.89633 = $13,298.61

Suppose the price elasticity of demand is relatively elastic and the price elasticity of supply is relatively inelastic in a spe
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

c. producers

Explanation:

Since it is given in the question that the price elasticity of demand is relatively elastic but the price elastic of supply is relatively inelastic but if the excise tax is imposed on the goods so the greater burden of the tax would be on the producers as the supply is inelastic so the producers could not changed much but if we compare to the consumers, the consumer could change the demand more than before due to the elastic in demand.

So, the correct option is c.

=AVERAGE('Past Events'!C4:C103)

Explanation:

To calculate the correlation between the sales of each kind of product and event attendance, from the Input analysis part of the spreadsheet model.

According to the information provided, in the targeted cell, we will use formula

=Average(data cells)

and for other part of the question is to calculate sales. For this part we can simply use the sum formula, first, we will sum the sales for a single item in past events column than at the end of the past column.

Thus, the correct formula will be :

=average(past event tab then col in that tab) use this for att, programs, food, and merch

=AVERAGE('Past Events'!C4:C103)
