Answer:
Company net income will DECREASE by $2,000 if the order is accepted.
Explanation:
Company net income will DECREASE by $2,000 if the order is accepted.
Additional order will produce additional sales revenue of $150 per unit
The marginal cost for this order = Variable costs (Direct material + Direct labour + variable cost) =$152 per unit
Since the marginal cost ($152) is more than the revenue ($150)per unit, there will be a loss of $2 per unit.
So the net income of the company will DECREASE by $2000 ($2x 1000)
Answer:
0.079
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand using midpoint formula can be calculated as follows
Formula
Elasticity of demand = (change in quantity/average quantity)/(change in price/average price)
Calculation
Elasticity of demand = (600/10,900)/(-2.1/3.05)
Elasticity of demand =-0.055 / -0.688
Elasticity of demand =-0.079
working
Change in price (2-4.1) = -2.1
Average price (2+4.1)/2=3.05
Change in quantity (11,200-10600) = 600
average quantity (11,200+10,600)/2 = 10,900
The elasticity of demand is inelastic as the elasticity is below 1.
