Answer:

b. greater in the beef market than in the milk market.

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Demand is elastic if quantity demanded is more sensitive to changes in price. A small change in price leads to a greater change in quantity demanded.

Demand is inelastic if when price changes, there is little or no change in quantity demanded.

If there's bovine fever which decreases the population of beef cattle by 50 percent, supply would fall and price would rise. As a result of the rise in price, quantity demanded of beef would fall more than the quantity demanded of milk because beef has an elastic demand while milk has an inelastic demand.

Wilmington Company has two manufacturing departments--Assembly and Fabrication. It considers all of its manufacturing overhead c
leva [86]

Answer:

1. $3,380

2. $2,175

Explanation:

Part 1

Predetermined overhead rate = Total Overheads for the Company ÷ Total  Direct labor-hours for the Company

                                                  =  $ 15,080,000 ÷ 232,000

                                                  = $65

Overheads applied to Job Bravo = ( 30 x $65) + (22 x $65) =  $3,380

Part 2

<em>Assembly department</em>

Predetermined overhead rate =  $ 7,250,000 ÷ 145,000

                                                  = $50

<em>Assembly department</em>

Predetermined overhead rate =  $ 7,830,000 ÷ 290,000

                                                  = $27

Overheads applied to Job Bravo = (30 x $50) + (25 x $27) = $2,175

The following 3 questions are based on this information. Kings Department Store has 625 rubies, 800 diamonds, and 700 emeralds f
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

129 bracelets and 59 necklaces.

Explanation:

Kings departments store wants to maximize profit by making a combination of its two products necklaces and bracelets. The King store should use a strategy so that it can generate maximum profit with its available rubies, diamonds and emeralds.  

$250a + $500b = Maximum Profit

For rubies : 2a + 5b = 625

For Diamonds : 3a + 7b = 800

For Emeralds: 4a + 3b = 700

Solving the equation we get maximum profit value of $61,750.The King departments stores should make 129 bracelets and 59 necklaces which will bring maximum profit to the store.
