Answer:
A) PED = 1.1
B) demand is elastic
C) Danny's total revenue would decrease
Explanation:
we can calculate the price elasticity of demand using the formula:
PED = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price = [(300 - 250) / 250] / [(2.25 - 2.75) / 2.75] = (50 / 250) / (-0.5 / 2.75) = 0.2 / 0.18 = 1.1
since PED = 1.1, the demand is elastic
if the PED is the same when the price decreases from $2.25 to $1.75, total revenue will :
when price = $2.25, total revenue = $2.25 x 300 = $675
when price = $1.75, total revenue = $1.75 x 373 = $652.75
*a 22.22% decrease in the price will cause a 24.44% increase (= 22.22% x 1.1) in the quantity demanded = 300 units + (300 x 24.44%) = 373.3 ≈ 373 units
Answer:
The amount of money created will be $1,250,000
Explanation:
In order to find the maximum amount of money that will be created in the banking system as a result of a deposit, we need to find the money multiplier.
Multiplier = 1/reserve ration = 1/0.2 = 5
The amount of money created = Multiplier *Initial deposit
Amount of money created = 5* 250,000
= 1,250,000
Answer:
option (d) increases by $1,000
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Increase in gross pay = $500
Increase in total employee benefits = $200
Decrease in total job expenses = $300
Now,
The change total employment compensation
= Increase in gross pay + Increase in total employee benefits + Decrease in total job expenses
= $500 + $200 + $300
= $1,000 (Here, the positive value means an increase )
Hence,
The answer is option (d) increases by $1,000
