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 car wash currently hires 4 workers, who together can wash 80 cars per day. The market price of car washes is $5 pe
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

b) 100 cars per day.

Explanation:

With the information above, we can conclude that each worker washes 20 cars per day, and earns a wage of $60 per day.

So the total labor costs per day is $60 wage per worker  X 4 workers = $240

The total sales revenue per day is: 80 cars washed per day X $5 per wash = $400.

So, we can see that with four workers, the firm has a good profit of = $400 - $240 = $160.

If the firm hired a fifth worker, labor costs would increase to $320 ($240 + $60), the amount of cars washed would increase to 100, and the sales revenue would increase to $500 (100 x $5).

So, profits would increase to $180 ($500 - $320) if the firm hired a fifth worker.

However, productivity should still be stable, so a worker who washed less than 20 cars per day should not be hired, this is why the A option is wrong.

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

This is false. buying a franchise is expensive, as it involves buying the rights of a business from the business owners, who are commonly referred to as ''franchisiors".

Explanation:

Ravi would not be able to run the franchise business the way he wants as the Franchisiors determines the business model and procedures. Hence, he would have a limited control on the business. Thus, I would advise Ravi to avoid going into a Franchise business, if his motive is to be his own boss and have control on his business.
