Answer:
A low-price strategy
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand is the responsiveness of quantity demand to a change in price. It is calculated by dividing the % change in quantity demanded by the % change in price.
- Perfectly elastic demand: Even no changes in price causes a change in quantity demanded (horizontal demand curve)
- Elastic demand: Change in price causes a relatively higher change in quantity demanded (Sloped demand curve, PES > 1)
- Unitary elastic demand: Change in price causes the same change in quantity demanded (PES = 1)
- Inelastic demand: Change in price causes a relatively lower change in quantity demanded (Steep slope in demand curve, PES < 1)
- Perfectly inelastic demand: Even with changes in the price, there is no change in the quantity demanded (vertical demand curve).
In this case, demand for hamburgers by both students and faculty is elastic since it is 4 and 3 respectively and hence higher than 1. Thus, any change in price will cause a higher change in quantity demanded.
Note: <em>The negative figures DOES NOT mean less than 1. The negative figure is because price and quantity demanded have an inverse relationship (when one rices, the other falls). Hence, even -4, -3, -6 are all elastic. However, -0.2, -0.9 and such are considered inelastic. </em>

When demand is elastic, a fall in price will help to maximize total revenue and profits, because when price falls by a certain amount, demand will increase by a much larger amount. Thus, in order to maximize profits, a low-price strategy should be used. In this low price strategy, students should be charged lower than faculty members, since students have a more elastic demand compared to faculty members. For example, students can be charged $5.6 and faculty members $5.8

Answer: Contingent theory
Explanation:
The Contingent theory of management believes that management cannot possibly know the best way to manage the activities of a company because things could go wrong at any time.
The theory goes further to suggest that the best bet that a company has is to try to align its internet environment to its external environment. In other words, it should align its corporate culture with the culture of the environment that it is based in.
Answer:
price of iPhones decreases
Explanation:
A decrease in price increases quantity demanded but does not increase demand.
iPhones and Android phones are substitute goods.
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good.
An increase in the price of androids increases the cost of androids. So, consumers would increases their demand for iPhones.
Because iPhone is assumed to be a normal good. An increase in the price of iPhones would increase the demand for the good.
Normal goods are goods that are goods whose demand increases when income increases and falls when income falls
Data plans and iPhones are complement goods.
Complementary goods are goods that are consumed togethe
A decrease in the price of data plans would increase the demand for iPhones.
Answer: Option B
Explanation: In simple words, dominant strategy refers to the situation in which one strategy gives higher outcome to one player as compared to other player.
Under such a situation the dominant player gets an absolute advantage against his or her opponent and will get better results bio matter how hard and efficient the opponent plays.
For example- In computer industry Apple has a dominant strategy which they have earned out of the market experience and no matter how much other companies try, they can not break customer base of Apple.
