Answer:

PED = -1.4 or |1.4| in absolute values, price elastic

Explanation:

the price elasticity of demand (PED) using the midpoint method:

PED = % change in quantity / % change in price

  • % change in quantity = {(Q 2 − Q1 ) / [(Q2 + Q1)/2]} x 100 = {(200 − 300 ) / [(200 + 300)/2]} x 100 =  -100 / 250 = -0.4
  • % change in price = {(P2 − P1 ) / [(P2 + P1)/2]} x 100 = {(1 − 0.75 ) / [(1 + 0.75)/2]} x 100 = 0.286

PED = -0.4 / 0.286 = -1.4 or |1.4| in absolute values

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Given that Payments are made as follows: 70% in the month of purchase and 30% in the month after purchase, therefore, firstly we need to differentiate the total amount of purchases of each month into 70% and 30%. 70% of the purchases will be paid in current month and balance 30% of the purchases will be ending accounts payable for that month and paid in next month. This is shown as follows:

Particulars                                         April         May          June

Current month purchases  70% $67,200  $88,200    $95,200

Ending accounts payable   30%   $28,800   $37,800    $40,800

Total purchases                             $96,000  $126,000  $136,000

The schedule of budgeted cash payments for the month of April May and June are shown as follows:-

                            Schedule of Cash Payments    

                               For April, May, and June

                                                                      April           May         June

Cash payments for:

Current month purchases                          $67,200   $88,200   $95,200  

Prior month purchases                               $38,000   $28,800   $37,800

Budgeted cash payments for materials  $105,200 $117,000  $133,000
