Answer:
0.60
Explanation:
The midpoint formula is used to calculate elasticity by using average percentage in both price and quantity.
The formula is given below:
Percentage change in quantity =<u> (Q2 -Q1) </u> x 100
(Q2 + Q1) / 2
Percentage change in price = <u> (P2 -P1) </u> x 100
(P2 + P1) / 2
Elasticity =<u> Percentage change in price__</u>
Percentage change in quantity
Inserting the data:
Percentage change in quantity =<u> (30 -20) </u> x 100 = <u>10</u> x 100 = 40%
(30 + 20) /2 25
Percentage change in price = <u>($20 - $10)</u> x 100 = <u>10</u> x 100 = 66.6%
($20 + $10) /2 15
Elasticity of supply = <u>40%</u>
66.6%
= 0.60
Answer:
The ending inventory value at cost is ($100,000)
Explanation:
To calculate the cost of ending inventory using the retail inventory method, we need to know:
- The cost-to-retail percentage = COGS/ sales during current year = (sales – net markup)/sales = ($2,500,000-$200,000)/$2,500,000 = 92%
- The cost of goods available for sale= Cost of beginning inventory + Cost of purchases = $200,000 + $2,000,000 = $2,200,000
- The cost of sales during the period = Sales × cost-to-retail percentage = $2,500,000 x 92% = $2,300,000
- The ending inventory = Cost of goods available for sale - Cost of sales during the period = $2,200,000 - $2,300,000 = ($100,000)
Answer:
A
Explanation:
Average rate of return is a capital budgeting method. It is used to determine if a firm should invest in a project or should not invest in a project
average rate of return = average net income / average cost of investment
average net income = (total net income - depreciation) / useful life
(8,500,000 - $4,250,000) / 20 = 212,500
Average cost of investment =( beginning book value of the investment - ending book value of the investment) / 2
($4,250,000 - 0) / 2 = 2,125,000
ARR = 212,500 / 2125,000 = 0.1 = 10%
<u>Explanation:</u>
a. <em>Remember</em>, the PPF (Production Possibility Frontier) framework allows for the selection of a preferred choice as regards budget spending. Hence, in such a situation, it calls for a choice to be made.
b. According to the PPF framework, where there is an increase in the population, it is expected that such change would result in an increase in the labor force capacity; and ultimately leading to an upward shift in the PPF curve. Thereby, increasing the overall production of the economy.
c. Within the PPF framework, a technological change that makes resources less specialized will result also result in an upward shift in the PPF curve.
B, sole proprietor. It couldn't be the others.
