Some trades are in higher demand than some degrees right now. Consider welding and history. History degrees are not in extremely high demand (which is a possible 4-year degree) but welding is in high demand (doesn't require a 4-year degree).

For the following demand equation compute the elasticity of demand and determine whether the demand is elastic, unitary, or inel
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Note: While answering this question, there is a confusion as to whether the correct demand equation is p= 157 − x2 as it appears in the question, or p= 157 − x^2 which is suspected to be the correct equation. Whichever the case may be, answers are provided for the two equations. Just confirm from the original question or your teacher which one is correct and pick the relevant answer out of the two following answers:

1. If p= 157 − x2 is the correct equation:

Elasticity of demand = - 0.15

Since -0.15 in absolute term |-0.15| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.

2. If p= 157 − x^2 is the correct equation:

Elasticity of demand = - 0.28

Since -0.28 in absolute term |-0.28| is less than 1, the demand is also inelastic.

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand is the degree of responsive of quantity demanded of a good to change in its price.

For this question, elasticity of demand can be computed using the formula for calculating the elasticity of demand as follows:

1. If p= 157 − x2 is the correct equation

E = Elasticity of demand = (p / x) * (dx / dp) ............................... (1)

From the question, we have:

p = 157 − x2.

Therefore, we solve for as follows:

x2 = 157 - p

x = (157 - P) / 2

x = 78.5 - 0.5p ....................................................... (2)

Differentiating equation (2) with respect to p, we have:

dx/dp = -0.5

Substituting values for dx/dp and x into equation (1), we have:

E = [p / (78.5 - 0.5p)] * (-0.5)

Since p = 20, we have:

E = [20 / (78.5 - (0.5 * 20))] * (-0.5)

E = [20 / (78.5 - 10)] * (-0.5)

E = − 0.15

Since -0.15 in absolute term |-0.15| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.

2. If p = 157 − x^2 is the correct equation

E = (p / x) * (dx / dp) ............................................ (1)

From the question, we have:

p = 157 − x^2.

Therefore, we solve for as follows:

x = 157^(1/2) – p^(1/2)

x = 157^0.5 – p^0.5 ........................................... (2)

Differentiating equation (2) with respect to p, we have:

dx/dp = -0.5p^(-0.5) = -0.5/p^0.5

Substituting values for dx/dp and x into equation (1), we have:

E = (p / x) * (dx / dp)

E = [p /  (157^0.5 – p^0.5)] * [ -0.5/p^0.5]

Since p = 20, we have:

E = [20 /  (157^0.5 – 20^0.5)] * [–0.5/20^0.5]

E = - 0.28

Since -0.28 in absolute term |-0.28| is less than 1, the demand is inelastic.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

1

Explanation:

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

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

Percentage change in quantity demanded = (30/20) - 1 = 0.5 = 50%

Percentage change in price = (1500 / 3000) - 1 = 0.5 = 50%

50% / 50% = 1

kati45 [8]

Answer:

$3 per unit

Explanation:

The computation of the direct materials cost per equivalent unit is shown below:

Completed and transferred to finished goods  65,000 units  

Equivalent number of additional units in process 15000 units

Beginning inventory material cost $57,500

Direct material cost incurred $183,000

Total direct material cost $240,500 ($57,500 + $183,000)

ANd, the total units is  80,000 (65,000 + 15,000)

So, the direct material cost per equivalent unit is

= $240,500 ÷ 80,000 units

= $3 per unit

mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Ans. The average annual rate of return over the four years is 2.792%

Explanation:

Hi, first let´s introduce the formula to use

r(Average)=\sqrt[n]{(1+r(1))*(1+r(2))*(1+r(3))+...(1+r(n))}-1

Where:

r(1),(2),(3)...n are the returns in each period of time

n =number of returns to average (in our case, n=4).

With that in mind, let´s find the average annual return over this four years.

r(Average)=\sqrt[4]{(1+0.025)*(1+0.025)*(1+0.12)+(1-0.07))} -1=0.022792

Therefore, the average annual return of this invesment in 4 years is 2.2792%

Best of luck.
