The correct answer is the following.

When going from a price of $160 per unit to a price of $140 per unit, the price elasticity of demand for GPS units is -2.33.

The proper calculation is the following. (80-120)/120= -0.334

(160-140)/140= 0.1429=-0.334/0.1429=-2.33.

When we refer to the economic term "price elasticity," we considered it as the change in the quantity demanded of a good and the change it presents in its price. This concept refers to the sensitivity of the price's product. Its formula to calculate the Price Elasticity of Demand is % change in Quantity Demanded / % change in price.

timofeeve [1]

Answer: 50%

Explanation:

Purchasing price for each share = $30

Stop loss order placed at $45 for each share.

If the stock price drops to $35, the benefit earned = $ (45-30)= $15

Now, the return on this investment = (benefit earned) ÷(Purchasing price)x 100%

= (15)÷(30)x100%

= 0.5 x 100%

= 50%

So,  your return on this investment = 50%

Vilka [71]

Answer:First Year  Depreciation= $84,000

Second Year  Deprecation= $78,400

Explanation:

Using Double declining

We have that :

Depreciation value  = Cost - Salvage value

$280,000 - $40,000 =$240,000

Since machine is expected to depreciate for 5 years, Annual depreciation  = 240,000 / 5 years

= $48,000

Annual Depreciation Rate = 48,000 / 240,000 = 20%

Therefore, Double declining  = 20 x 2 = 40%

First Year  Depreciation: from April to December

= 40% x  280,000 x 9/12 months

= $84,000

Second Year  Deprecation:

= 40% x (280,000 - 84,000)

= $78,400
