oee [108]

Answer:

PED = -1.4 or |1.4| in absolute values, price elastic

Explanation:

the price elasticity of demand (PED) using the midpoint method:

PED = % change in quantity / % change in price

  • % change in quantity = {(Q 2 − Q1 ) / [(Q2 + Q1)/2]} x 100 = {(200 − 300 ) / [(200 + 300)/2]} x 100 =  -100 / 250 = -0.4
  • % change in price = {(P2 − P1 ) / [(P2 + P1)/2]} x 100 = {(1 − 0.75 ) / [(1 + 0.75)/2]} x 100 = 0.286

PED = -0.4 / 0.286 = -1.4 or |1.4| in absolute values

Question 56 of 75. Louise is a 29-year-old taxpayer who will use the head of household filing status. Her 2020 modified adjusted
Andre45 [30]

Considering the situation described above, the maximum amount Louise may receive for the retirement savings contributions credit (Saver's Credit) is "<u>$150</u>."

This is because according to the Internal Revenue Service regulations, for individuals filing under the head of household filing status, with an adjusted gross income of $31,876 - $48,750, such person would only be able to receive 10% of his retirement savings contributions credit (Saver's Credit).

Therefore, Louise has only contributed $1,500 to her employer's 401(k) plan. Consequently, she can only receive 10%, which is "<u>$150</u>."

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is "<u>$150</u>."
