If the quantity supplied by producers is relatively insensitive to price changes, supply is ______. Multiple choice question.

luda_lava [24]

If the quantity supplied by producers is relatively insensitive to price changes, supply is price inelastic.

Inelastic demand is demand for which the change in quantity demanded is small due to changes in price. Demand is elastic if the formula yields an absolute value greater than 1. In other words, quantity changes faster than price. If the value is less than 1, demand is inelastic.

For example, consumers are less price relatively insensitive if the product or service is unique or has few alternatives. Consumers are less price sensitive when total costs are low relative to total revenues. The total effort compared to the total cost of the final product also influences price sensitivity.

Colleen Matthews had just turned 22 when her hard work finally started to pay off. Six months earlier Colleen graduated from a s

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Prosecutors of this case can use the net worth method to determine the extent these executives have been receiving illegal incomes by computing their wealth at the beginning and at the end of the period under investigation.

There will be an increase in the executives wealth, and since this increase cannot be traced to any legal income source, it will become taxable income, with the calculated penalties and fines.

Explanation:

The net worth method specifies that any increase in wealth, which is not traced to non-taxable sources, should be determined as a taxable income for the period under review. Ordinarily, the net worth is the difference between assets and liabilities. Since the executives use the money personally at their convenience, this will increase their personal wealth.

During a pandemic, an economy goes into a recession due to a decrease in aggregate demand. Assume the government creates a progr

den301095 [7]

The spending that would occur during the third round of spending if the marginal propensity to consume (MPC) was 0.6 will be $420 billion.

Increase in expenditure = $700 billion.

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.6

The amount of spending based on the information given will be:

= 0.6 × $700 billion

= $420 billion.

Therefore, the correct option is $420 billion.

Answer:

Part 1. inelastic.

Part 2. inelastic.

Part 3. inelastic.

Explanation:

When the coefficient of elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic, when it is equal to 1, demand is unitary elastic, when it is greater than 1, demand is elastic, and when it is equal to zero demand is perfectly inelastic.

Part 1

Price Elasticity of demand = (dQ/dP) x P/Q

Where : dQ = Change in Quantity

dP = Change in Price

P = Initial or Old price

Q = Initial of Old Quantity

dQ = $35,000 - $40,000 = - $5,000

dP = $10 - $8 = $2

P = $8

Q = $40,000

Price Elasticity of demand = (-$5,000/$2) * $8/ $40,000

= 2,500 * 1/5000 = -0.5

Disregard the minus sign, since elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic.

Part 2

Price Elasticity of demand = (dQ/dP) x P/Q

dQ = $1,800 - $2,000 = - $200

dP = $50 - $40 = $10

P = $40

Q = $2,000

Price Elasticity of demand = (-$200/$10) * $40/ $2,000

= 20 * 0.02 = -0.4

Disregard the minus sign, since elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic.

Part 3

Price Elasticity of demand = (dQ/dP) x P/Q

dQ = $120 - $150 = - $30

dP = $5 - $4 = $1

P = $4

Q = $150

Price Elasticity of demand = (-$30/$1) * $4/ $150

= 30 * 2/75 = - 0.8

Disregard the minus sign since elasticity of demand is less than 1, demand is inelastic.

Indicate whether the following actions would increase, decrease, or not affect Indigo Inc.'s total assets, liabilities, and stoc

Elenna [48]

Explanation:

The effects are as follows:

a. In the first option, there is No effect in any item of the financial statements

b. In the second option, there is No effect in any item of the financial statements

c. In the third option, there is No effect in any item of the financial statements

d. No impact on the assets but it increases the liabilities side and decreases the stockholder equity

The journal entry is shown below:

Retained earning A/c Dr XXXXX

To Dividend payable A/c XXXXX

(Being cash dividend declared)

When the dividend is declared, the dividend amount should be subtracted from the retained earning account.

And, since the dividend is declared that increases the balance of dividend

In addition, the dividend payable and the retained earning account have a credit balance. The increase in dividend payable account would have credit balance whereas the decrease in retained earning account has a debit balance.

e. Paying the cash dividend declared in (d)

The journal entry is shown below:

Dividend payable A/c XXXXX

To Cash A/c XXXXX

(Being the cash dividend is paid)

Since it reduces the liabilities and the asset side also but it does not have any impact on the stockholder equity
