Answer:
Inelastic; 5%; fall; 10%; rise
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand is always negative for normal goods. This happens because of the law of demand, that demand falls with rise in price.
Price elasticity between 0 and 1 shows inelastic demand.
This means that there is smaller change in demand due to a greater change in price level.
Price elasticity of demand is -0.5.
If the price falls by 10%, demand will increase by 5%.
The revenue will fall, because of greater fall in price.
If the price increases by 20%, demand will fall by 10%.
Revenue will increase because of greater increase in price.
Answer:
10.0 years
Explanation:
The computation of the payback period is shown below
We know that
Payback period = initial cost ÷ increase in net income
= $30,000 ÷ $3,000
= 10 years
As the depreciation expense is a non-cash expense so we dont considered it
Therefore the first option is correct
Answer: Return on sales is calculated based on sales volume and not profit
Explanation:
This can be explained by understanding the scenario; the price that discounters pay is lower than any other channel. Discounters have high variable cost, they only pay $52 for the Russel with 41percent return on sales. They also larger fixed costs than the other channels and the return on sales is calculated based on sales volume and not profit.
Answer: c. To reduce the balances of revenue and expense accounts to zero so that they may be used to accumulate the revenues and expenses of the next period.
Explanation:

The primary purpose of closing entries is to reduce the balances of revenue and expense accounts to zero so that they may be used to accumulate the revenues and expenses of the next period.
Therefore, the correct option is C.
