Answer:

b. inelastic

c. Yes - it decreased

Explanation:

Elasticitiy of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price

= -2/4 = -0.5

The absolute value is 0.5

If the absolute value of the coffiecnet of elasticity of demand is less than one, demand is inelastic.

Demand is inelastic if a change in price has no effect on quantity demanded .

We can tell that the quantity demanded fell because of the negative sign in front of the percentage change in quantity demanded.

I hope my answer helps you

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Instructios are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Assume Pinkie started the year with 100 containers of ink​ (average cost of $ 9.10 ​each, FIFO cost of $ 8.60 ​each, LIFO cost of $ 8.00 ​each).

During the​ year, the company purchased 800 containers of ink at $10.00 and sold 600 units for $21.75 each. Pinkie paid operating expenses throughout the​ year, a total of $ 5,000.

FIFO:

Sales= 600*21.75= 13,050

COGS= (100*8.60 + 500*10)= 5860

Gross profit= 7190

Operating expense= 5000

Net operating profit= $2,190

LIFO:

Sales= 13,050

COGS= (600*10)= 6000

Gross profit= 7,050

Operating expense= 5000

Net operating profit= $2,050

Average-cost

Sales= 13,050

COGS= [(9.10+10)/2]*600= 5730

Gross profit= 7,320

Operating expense= 5000

Net operating profit= $2,320

Vincent operates a scenic tour business in Boston. He has one bus which can fit 50 people per tour and each tour lasts 2 hours.
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

There is some information missing, and when I looked for it I found similar questions but the demand was already given and the question was about Vincent's total daily income.

Passenger                  Price                  Daily demand

Adults                          $18                        70

Children                      $10                        25

Senior citizens            $12                        55

total                                                           150

total revenue per day = ($18 x 70) + ($10 x 25) + ($12 x 55) = $1,260 + $250 + $660 = $2,170

total operating costs per day = (150 / 50) x $450 = $1,350

operating income per day = $2,170 - $1,350 = $820
