Answer:
A) PED = 1.1
B) demand is elastic
C) Danny's total revenue would decrease
Explanation:
we can calculate the price elasticity of demand using the formula:
PED = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price = [(300 - 250) / 250] / [(2.25 - 2.75) / 2.75] = (50 / 250) / (-0.5 / 2.75) = 0.2 / 0.18 = 1.1
since PED = 1.1, the demand is elastic
if the PED is the same when the price decreases from $2.25 to $1.75, total revenue will :
when price = $2.25, total revenue = $2.25 x 300 = $675
when price = $1.75, total revenue = $1.75 x 373 = $652.75
*a 22.22% decrease in the price will cause a 24.44% increase (= 22.22% x 1.1) in the quantity demanded = 300 units + (300 x 24.44%) = 373.3 ≈ 373 units
Answer:
Market
Explanation:
Producer surplus is the difference between the market price and the minimum price at which a producer would be willing to sell a particular quantity.
Producer surplus is known to be the total amount that a producer benefits or gains from producing and selling a quantity of a good at the market price. The total revenue that a producer receives from selling their goods minus the total cost of production equals the producer surplus.
Answer: Brainstorming
Explanation: Brainstorming is a group creativity technique by which efforts are made to find a conclusion for a specific problem by gathering a list of ideas spontaneously contributed by its members. It is the basic technique for developing ideas and getting people to think up new concepts and solutions to a problem.
Brainstorming also triggers creativity and great idea generation.
Answer:
1
Unitary elastic
Elasticity of demand is unitary elastic because the absolute value of elasticity is equal to 1.
Explanation:
Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.
Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
Percentage change in quantity demanded = (25 - 15) / 25 = 0.4 × 100 = 40%
Percentage change in price = ($5 - $7) / $5 = 0.4 × 100 = 40%
Elasticity of demand = 40% / 40% = 1
If coefficient of elasticity is equal to 1, demand is unit elastic. It means that a change in price has an equal efect on the quantity demanded. Quantity demanded has an equal and proportional change to changes in price.
I hope my answer helps you
Answer:
Revenue $6,800
Expenses:
- Salaries and Wages Expense ($2,700)
- Supplies Expense ($1,050)
- Depreciation expense ($250)
- Insurance expense ($600)
- Utilities Expense ($400) <u>($5,000)</u>
Net income $1,800
1) you must add insurance expense
2) you must decrease supplies expense = $1,200 - $150 = $1,050
3) you must add depreciation expense
4) you must increase salaries and wages expense = $2,300 + $400 = $2,700
5) you must increase revenue = $6,100 + $700 = $6,800
