Answer:

Total Revenues would increase because Demand is Inelastic

Explanation:

Demand is buyers ability & willingness to buy at a given price, time.

Elasticity of Demand is quantity demanded responsiveness to price change.

More Elastic Demand means quantity demanded responds highly to change in price. Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded > Percentage Change in Price. Elasticity of Demand [Δ%Q / Δ%P] >1 in this case. Price and Total Revenue (PxQ) are inversely related in this case ; i.e - price rise, TR fall & price fall, TR rise.

Less Elastic Demand means quantity demanded responds less to change in price. Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded < Percentage Change in Price. Elasticity of Demand [Δ%Q / Δ%P] < 1 in this case. Price and Total Revenue (PxQ) are positively related in this case ; i.e - price rise, TR rise & price fall, TR fall.

So: If Sam's Pint price change by 20% leads to demand fall by 4%, the demand is less elastic i.e < 1. Hence, Total Revenue will increase with increase in price.

Leto [7]

Answer:

1. False 2. True

Explanation:

1. The candidate for political office announcing that the policy to reduce immigration from abroad which, he says, economics clearly demonstrates will lead to higher output in the long run; is false.

What increases output are the factors of production of which labor is a major component. When there are more people willing and able to work in an economy, <u>they help companies to produce more output but that is not the case when immigration is reduced, obviously that would reduce productivity and output.</u>

<u />

2. However his second claim is right, that making trade more open between the US and other countries will increase output on the long run.

Trade barriers like tariffs and duties impede the level of trade between countries which could either reduce the amount of money countries make after netting off custom duties or the price of imported goods are increased by the effect of tariffs. Increased price means reduced demand

<u>Hence if tariffs are replaced with subsidies in open trade, prices of U.S imported goods will fall and demand will increase.</u>

irinina [24]

Answer:

The calculations are shown below

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

But before that, first we have to prepare the income statement so that the values could come    

Particulars Amount  

Revenues $99,700  

Less: Cost of sales -$64,700  

Gross profit $35,000  

Less: Interest expenses -$1,800  

Earnings before tax $33,200  

Less: Taxes -$11,620  

Net income $21,580  

So, the calculations are shown below:

1. Earnings per share = Net income ÷ Common stock outstanding  

= $21,580 ÷ 16,000 shares    

= $1.35 per share

2. Price earnings ratio = Stock price per share ÷ Earnings per share  

= $22 ÷ $1.35    

= 16.3 times  

3. Long term debt to equity ratio  = Long term debt ÷ Total equity  

= $45,800 ÷ $120,000    

= 0.38 times  

4. Total market value = Number of shares outstanding × Market price per share

= 16,000 shares  × $22    

= $352,000
