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

Marc and michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $70,400 and $14,400, respectively. In addition to their salaries,
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Since we are not given any specific year, I will use the 2020 tax schedule:

Marc and Michelle's gross income = Marc's and Michelle's salaries + interest from corporate bonds = $70,400 + $14,400 + $1,300 = $86,100

they should choose the standard deduction since it is higher than their itemized deductions = ($24,400)

<u>contribution to IRA = ($3,300)</u>

Marc and Michelle's taxable income = $58,400

Marc and Michelle's tax liability = $1,975 + [12% x ($58,400 - $19,750)] = $6,613

Alimony payments are not longer tax deductible and interests on municipal bonds is not taxable.

Since their income tax withholdings exceed their tax liability, they should get a refund for $6,665 - $6,613 = $52

Also, since they are allowed a $2,000 child tax credit, but they do not owe any more taxes, they are entitled to a $1,400 refund.

Total refund for 2020 = $1,452.

Answer:

d. beta did a better job of explaining the returns than standard deviation

Explanation:

Beta measures the systemic risk associated with the particular investment, it do not compute the total risk associated, which is more  logical.

Standard deviation computes the total risk associated.

Some risk is natural, like the risk of floods, natural calamities, earthquake, etc:

That risk shall not counted as for comparison as that is associated universally. Further, the risk associated with particular factors like bankruptcy of a company, or some legal case issue of a company are precisely described by beta coefficient.

Thus, beta provides better details about explaining the returns.
