Answer:

C. 2.2.

Explanation:

Mid point elasticity is calculated as follows:

<em>% change in qty supplied/ % change in price</em>

<em />

<em>% change in qty supplied</em>

= (600-400)/(600+400)/2

= 0.4

<em> % change in price </em>

= (12 -10)/(12+10)/2

= 0.181

Mid point elasticity

= 0.4/0.18

=2.2

Answer: C. 2.20

Explanation:

Given the folliwing

At price(P1) = $10 per unit,

Quantity produced(Q1) = 400 units

When price(P2) = $12,

Quantity produced(Q2) = 600 units

The price elasticity of supply is used to determine how quantity supplied is affected by changes in the price of a commodity.

The midpoint method of determining price elasticity of supply :

(Percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ percentage change in price)

[(Q2-Q1) ÷((Q2+Q1)/2) ÷ (P2-P1)÷((P2+P1)/2)]

Percentage Change in quantity supplied = [(600-400)/(600+400)/2)] =200/500 = 0.4

Percentage change in price = [(12-10)/(12+10)/2]

= 2/11 = 0.1818

Therefore, price elasticity of supply = (0.4 ÷ 0.1818) = 2.20

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

$22,750

Explanation:

Data provided

Fixed manufacturing overhead = $16,500

Units produced = 5,000

Variable manufacturing overhead = $1.25

The computation of the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost is shown below:-

Manufacturing overhead = Fixed manufacturing overhead + Variable manufacturing overhead

= $16,500 + (5,000 × $1.25)

= $16,500 + $6,250

= $22,750
