Describe the slope of the demand curve? How does the slope reflect the law of demand?

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

1. The slope is negative

2. The demand decreases when the prices increase.

Explanation:

Describe the slope of the demand curve?

The slope of the demand curve is negative.

The demand curve is graphed on a coordinate plane with the price in the horizontal axis (typically the x-axis) and the demand on the vertical axis (y-axis).

Thus, the slope will be the rate of change of the demand over the change on the price.

Mathematically:

$slope=\dfrac{\text{change in demand}}{\text{change in price}}$

Since, as you move from left to right, on the x-axis, the prices increase, and the demand (on the y-axis) lowers, the change in demand is negative and the change in the prices is positive, resulting in a negative slope.

This is seen graphycally because the demand curve is decreasing (downward-sloping).

How does the slope reflect the law of demand?

The slope reflects perfectly the law of demand because the law of demand states that, since the resources are scarce, when the prices incrases the quantities demanded decrease.

At Bargain Electronics, it costs $29 per unit ($17 variable and $12 fixed) to make an MP3 player that normally sells for $53. A

algol13

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

Particulars Reject Order Accept Order Net Income

Revenues $0 $126,280 $126,280

(4,510 units × $28)

Variable manufacturing $0 $76,670 -$76,670

(4,510 units × $17)

Shipping $0 $18,040 -$18,040

(4,510 units × $4)

Net Income $0 $31,570 $31,570

Hence, the net income is in positive value so the special order would be accepted

Answer: D. supervisors gain experience in and are accountable for solving problems in their work units.

Explanation:

A chain of command is necessary in business because it diversifies authority such that decisions can be made faster.

It works by dividing employees into units which will answer to a manager. That manager will make decisions for the unit and this leads to decisions being made faster because everybody wouldn't have to go to upper management when they already have a manager.

Supervisors/ managers of these units are therefore accountable for their units and will gain experience from being so.

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

Data given in the information

Product X is the byproduct.

In addition, the By products are recorded in the general ledger at the point of sale

So in this case, the quantity sold is considered only no other things would be recognized

Hence, in this the quantity sold and quantity produced is not recorded

Therefore , No ending inventory should be recognized in the general ledger for this by products

Schultz Industries is considering the purchase of Arras Manufacturing. Arras is currently a supplier for Schultz, and the acquis

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

$50.67 per share

Explanation:

using the discounted cash flow model, we can determine Arras's total value:

CF₀ = $7.6

CF₁ = $7.98

CF₂ = $8.379

CF₃ = $8.79795

CF₄ = $9.2378475

CF₅ = $9.699739875

CF₆ = $9.893734673

we must first find the terminal value at year 5 = $9.893734673 / (7% - 2%) = $197.874694

now we can discount the future cash flows:

firm's value = $7.98/1.07 + $8.379/1.07² + $8.79795/1.07³ + $9.2378475/1.07⁴ + $9.699739875/1.07⁵ + $197.874694/1.07⁵ = $7.458 + $7.319 + $7.182 + $7.048 + $6.916 + $141.081 = $177.004 million

the shareholders' share of the firm's value = $177.004 million - $25 million = $152.004 million

price per share = $152.004 million / 3 million shares = $50.668 ≈ $50.67 per share
