Answer: Rarely if ever

Explanation:

In an economy resources are limited while human wants are unlimited. So resources must be used in a way that maximum consumer wants can be met efficiently. In an economy when resources are allocated efficiently it is rarely possible to make some else better off without making someone else worse off. That is it is rarely possible to increase performance of some without sacrificing on some other dimension.

Nuthatch Corporation began its operations on September 1 of the current year. Budgeted sales for the first three months of busin
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

c.$209,160

Explanation:

Given that the cash received from each sale will be collected over 2 months. If 30% of mechanize is to be sold for cash, then 70% will be sold on account. Further more, 80% of the credit/sale on account will be collected in the month of sale and 20% in the following month.

Hence for October, cash collection will include 20% of credit sale from September and 80% of the credit sale in the month.

Given that sales in September is $250,000

Amount expected to sold on account

= $250,000 - (30% × $250,000)

= $175,000

Amount expected to be collected from this sale in October

= 20% × $175,000

= $35,000

Amount of credit sale in October

= $311,000 - (30% × $311,000)

= $217,700

Amount of this credit sale to be collected  in October

= 80% × $217,700

= $174,160

Total collected from accounts receivable in October

= $174,160 + $35,000

= $209,160

a. Using the starting point formula, what is the price elasticity of demand for going from a price of $160 per unit to a price o
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Price Elasticity of Demand is -4

Explanation:

We can see the graph and easily calculate the Q1 which is 120 units at P1 $140 and Q2 which is 80 units at P2 $160 price.

The starting point formula for calculating price elasticity of demand is given as under:

Price Elasticity of Demand = (ΔQ / Q2)  /  (ΔP / P2)

Here

ΔQ = Q1 - Q2 = 120 - 80 = 40 units

ΔP = P1  -  P2 = 140 - 160 =   - $20

By putting value in the above equation, we have:

Price Elasticity of Demand = (40 Units / 80 Units)  /  (-$20 / $160)

Price Elasticity of Demand = -4
