The growers of Sunny Day Citrus have determined that their chief priority for choosing a transportation mode within the United S

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Rail transportation

Explanation:

Considering the situation described above in the questions, Sunny Day Citrus should use RAIL TRANSPORTATION to ship their oranges.

There are basically four means of shipping goods, these include road, maritime, rail, and air shipment.

However, considering the need to achieve quick transit time, low margins, low cost, and the highest level of reliability the best means of use is RAIL TRANSPORTATION.

This is because while Air shipment is the fastest, it is the most expensive. Also, the Maritime or Ship may be the lowest in terms of cost, but since it is within the United States, it would be relatively expensive compared to rail and also is the slowest in terms of transit time.

Similarly, the road may be faster and relatively cheaper compared to air, but not as cheaper compared to the rail in a long distance.

Rail transportation offers cheaper, low margins, reliability as it is difficult to have accidents and robbery of such commodities inside the train. It is also quite faster compared to ship.

Hence, in this case, the right answer is RAIL TRANSPORTATION

The amount of cash received will be the net of discounts and sales returns.

Given,

the sales = $ 2,000

The sales return = $ 800

The discount will be allowed only if the payment is made within the discounts period i.e. 10 days. The sales were made in 15th July and Payment is made on 24th July, thus Carson company is eligible for the discount. The discount will be calculated on the sales net of returns

Net sales = $ 2,000 - $ 800 = $ 1200

Discount = 2 % X $ 1,200 = $ 24

The cash received = $ 2,000 - $ 800 - $ 24 = $ 1,176

Answer:

B) 0.7; inelastic

Explanation:

The computation of the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand is shown below:

Elasticity is

= [(Sales - prior sales) ÷ ( Sales + prior sales) ÷ 2] ÷ [(price - dropped price) ÷ (price - dropped price) ÷ 2

= [(1,040,000 - 890,000) ÷ (1,040,000 + 890,000) ÷ 2] ÷ [(25,000 - 20,000) ÷ (25,000 + 20,000) ÷ 2]

= (150,000 ÷ 965,000) ÷ (5,000 ÷ 22,500)

= 0.15 ÷ 0.22

= 0.7

It is less than one so the demand is inelastic
