If the inverse demand function is:
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

-0.136 and $528

Explanation:

Given that

p = 50 - 0.5Q

where,

Q = 88

So, p equals to

= 50 - 0.5 × 88

= 50 - 44

= $6  

As it is mentioned that

p = 50 - 0.5Q

0.5Q = 50 - p

Q = 100 - 2p

And we know that

Price elasticity of demand is

= Percentage Change in quantity demanded ÷ Percentage Change in price

So,

= -2 × (6 ÷ 88)

= -0.136

And, the revenue is

= Price × Quantity

= $6 × 88

= $528

False

Ethical standards are are set of guiding principles that an organisation communicates to its employees as the expected way to do things.

In reaching beyond our borders it is not true that ethical standards of of its employees must be the same as for workers in the United States.

Date           Account Title & Explanation   Debit $        Credit $

Jan 1          Cash                                           350,000

                 Notes Payable                                                350,000

                  (To record the issue of notes payable)

b. Calculation of Interest Expenses

                      Particulars                           Amount $

Beginning balance of loan payment         350,000

Annual interest rate                                          4%

Interest expenses                                         14,000

Hence the interest expenses = $14,000

Principal amount is calculated as the difference between the annual payment and the interest expenses as seen below

                   Particulars                           Amount $

Annual payment                                      96,590

Less: Interest expenses                          14,000

Principal Payment                                  82,590

Hence, the principal payment =$82,590
