Answer:
An elastic demand curve will result in higher social surplus. Social surplus equals consumer surplus plus supplier surplus, or simply total surplus. The highest possible social surplus is reached at the equilibrium point.
If a product's demand is completely inelastic, the supplier can increase the price at will, reducing consumer surplus to minimum levels. If a product's demand is completely elastic, then consumer surplus increases while supplier surplus is directly related to shifts in the demand. Higher demand increases supplier surplus.
Answer:
a. The depreciable cost is $72000.
b. The depreciation rate is $0.36 per mile.
c. The depreciation expense for the year is $6480.
Explanation:
a.
The depreciable cost is the cost that is eligible for depreciation. It is calculated by deducting the residual value from the cost of the asset.
Depreciable cost = Cost - residual value
Depreciable cost = 80000 - 8000 = $72000
b.
The depreciation rate can be calculated by dividing the depreciable cost by the total estimated useful life of the asset.
The depreciable rate = 72000 / 200000 = $0.36 per mile driven
c.
The units of activity depreciation for the year is,
Depreciation expense = 0.36 * 18000 = $6480
