Ana is a stay-at-home parent who lives in Dallas and provides math tutoring for extra cash. At a wage of $25 per hour, she is wi

lling to tutor 4 hours per week. At $40 per hour, she is willing to tutor 10 hours per week. Using the midpoint method, the elasticity of Beth's labor supply between the wages of $25 and $40 per hour is approximately (______ ), which means that Beth's supply of labor over this wage range is (_____ ).

Answer:

1.86 and elastic

Explanation:

The computation of the price elasticity of supply using the mid point method is shown below:

= (change in quantity supplied ÷ average of quantity supplied) ÷ (percentage change in price ÷ average of price)  

where,  

Change in quantity supplied is

= Q2 - Q1

= 10 - 4

= 6

And, average of quantity supplied is

= (10 + 4) ÷ 2

= 7

Change in price would be

= P2 - P1

= $40 - $25

= $15

And, average of price would be

= ($40 + $25) ÷ 2

= 32.5

So, after solving this, the price elasticity of supply is 1.86

Since the price elasticity is more than one so it is a elastic

Answer:

Beth's Elasticity of Supply (Midpoint Method) : 10.11 ; Supply : Highly Elastic

Explanation:

By Midpoint method , Elasticity of supply formula is :-

<u>[ Q2 - Q1 ] / [ (Q2 + Q1)/2 ]</u>

[ P2 - P1] / [ (P2 + P1) / 2 ]

Putting the given following values in the formula ; we get :-

P1 = 25 ; P2 = 40 ; Q1 = 4 ; Q2 = 10

<u>[ 40 + 25 ] / [ (40 - 25) / 2] </u>

[ 10 - 4 ] / [ (10 + 4) / 2 ]

<u>65 / 7.5 </u>

6 / 7

8.6 / 0.85

= 10.11

Beth's Elasticity of supply is much higher than one ; So his supply is Highly Elastic.

A competitive firm currently produces and sells 500 units of output. Its total revenue is $3,500; the marginal cost of producing
Orlov [11]

Answer: Reduce output

Explanation: Profit = Total Revenue – Total Costs

Therefore, profit maximization occurs therefore, profit maximization occurs at the most significant gap or the biggest difference between the total revenue and the total cost.

TC = AC×Q = $4×500 = $2,000

Theoretically, profit maximization occurs where MR = MC

From the forgoing, producing an extra unit will increase the cost of the company thereby reducing profit.

The company should reduced output to around 499 units or less

They differ in their difference threshold. This is being defined when their sensory stimuli is different, making the individual perceive them also, as different. This occurs in the scenario given above for Susan couldn't hear the level 7 volume when Mary could already hear it.

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

a.) The proportional up movement , u, for the currency can be calculated using the following formula:

u = eStd Dev * Square root of t

u = e0.06*square root of 0.25

u = 1.0305

b.) Probability of up movement, p , = (a - d) / (u - d)

where   a = ert where r = 0.025, t = 0.25

a = e0.025*0.25 = 1.0063

d = 1 / u = 1 / 1.3050 = 0.7663

p = (1.0063-0.7663) / (1.3050-0.7663)

p = 0.46

1-p = 1-0.46 = 0.54

c)  Price of an American Call Option on the currency : we use binomial tree for that , as follows: The amounts below line indicate the option price and figures above line indicate the underlying asset price which is 0.55555
