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.

Answer:

Disadvantage of Corporate Form of Organization:

d. Government regulation

Explanation:

In recent times, government regulation of businesses appears to be regarded as a disadvantage of the corporate form of organizations.  Governments intervene and regulate corporate entities whenever they fail to be self-regulatory.  But, the regulations may appear to be so much that the corporate form of organization now looks like a disadvantage.  Given the many corporate scandals, collapses, and misapplications of resources by corporate entities that have become the order of the day, government regulation is very important.  Without government regulation, many corporate bodies will not be acting in the public interest.  This is more so with public entity corporate organizations with diverse stakeholders and corporate managers who act as if they were running their own autonomous governments.

What is the relationship between a non-callable, option-free fixed rate bond's price and its yield?
Sophie [7]

Answer:

The relationship is that the price for these types of bonds is lower as the Yield is fixed and do not change over time.

The price of a Non-callable bond is cheaper than the price of the Callable bond as the Yield for a Non-callable bond is fixed. This suggest that the investor knows exactly what is the interest that is going to receive until the maturity of the bond.
