Answer:

This refers to price elasticity of demand.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand (PED) measures how much does the quantity demanded of a good or service changes proportionally to a 1% change in the price of the good or service.

-the percentage change in quantity demanded is 1 percent greater than the percentage change in price.

  • ELASTIC DEMAND: when the change in quantity demanded is proportionally greater than the change in price.

-the percentage change in quantity demanded is equal to the percentage change in price.

  • PRICE UNITARY DEMAND: e.g. if the price increases by 10%, the demand decreases by 10% (the same proportion).

-the percentage change in quantity demanded is 100 percent greater than the percentage change in price (in absolute value).

  • ALMOST PERFECTLY ELASTIC DEMAND: if a product has a perfectly elastic demand, any small change in price will increase or decrease the quantity demanded to either infinite (price decrease) or zero (price increase). No demand is perfectly elastic, but a demand that changes by 100% more than the price change is very similar to this concept.

-quantity demanded does not respond to changes in price.

  • PERFECTLY INELASTIC DEMAND: the quantity demanded doesn't change if the price changes. This rarely happens in real life as well as the perfectly elastic demand.

A firm sells a product in a purely competitive market. The marginal cost of the product at the current output of 200 units is $4
posledela

Answer:

D. Should Shut Down

Explanation:

A perfect competition firm is at profit maximising equilibrium where : Marginal Revenue [Price] = Marginal Cost .

If MR > MC : Firm's additional production is profitable, it tends to increase production. If MR < MC : Firm's additional production is loss making, it tends to decrease production.

However, If firm's Price i.e MR < Average Variable Cost : The firm's per unit price is even unable to cover it's per unit average variable cost. This situation is referred to as 'Shut Down' point & firm should close down its production in the case.

Given : MR = P = 3 ; MC = 4 ; AVC = 3.5 . The firm's price P (3) is not only lesser by its Marginal Cost MC (4), to decrease production ; but also lesser than its Average Variable Cost AVC (3.5) . So, the firm should shut down.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

The stockholder's equity will be increased by $500

Explanation:

While stockholders equity is the amount of assets available to shareholders after all liabilities have been settled , treasury stock is the stock that is bought back by the issuing organisation with the aim of reducing the number of outstanding stock in the open market.

Looking at the scenario given , it was an indirect way of raising fund and increasing the equity of the stockholders equity as the treasury stock was later resold at a higher price.

Therefore , the stockholder's equity increases by 3,000- 2500 = 500
