Answer:
-0.10
Explanation:
To calculate this, we us the formula for calculating elasticity of demand (E) relevant for the demand equation as follow:
E = (P / Q) * (dQ / dP) .............................. (1)
Where,
Q = 30
P = 90
E = -0.3
dQ / dP = b = ?
We then substitute all the value into equation (1) and have:
-0.3 = (90 / 30) * b
-0.3 = 3 * b
b = -0.3 /3
b = -0.10
Therefore, appropriate value for the price coefficient (b) in a linear demand function Q is -0.10.
NB:
Although this not part of the question, but note that how the linear demand function will look can be obtained by first solving for the constant term (a) as follows:
Q = a - 0.10P
Substituting for Q and P, we can solve for a as follows:
30 = a – (0.1 * 90)
30 = a – 9
a = 30 + 9 = 39
Therefore, the linear demand equation can be stated as follows:
Q = 39 – 0.1P

Answer:
Entry is given below
Explanation:
Entry for factory labor cost
DATE ACCOUNT DEBIT CREDIT
DEC 31 Work in Progress(w) $97,780
Factory overhead $6,340
Wages payable $104,120
Working
Work in progress = 3,860+4,300+24,500+18,600+7120+7400+32,000
Work in progress = 97,780
NOTE: Work in progress is sum of all direct labor cost
Factory Overhead = all indirect labor cost which is only $6,130
Answer: The correct answer is option (A)
Explanation: Activity rates is calculated by dividing the budgeted activity cost by the total activity-base usage.
Activity Rate = (Budgeted Activity cost) ÷ ( total activity base usage)
Answer:
The average beta of the new stocks would be 1.75 to achieve the target required rate of return
Explanation:
In order to calculate the average beta of the new stocks to achieve the target required rate of return we would have to calculate the following:
average beta of the new stocks = (Required Beta-(portfolio /total fund) *old beta)/(additional portfolio/total fund)
To calculate the Required Beta we would have to use the formula of Required rate of return as follows:
Required rate of return=Risk free return + (market risk premium)*beta
0.13=0.0425+(0.06*Required Beta)
Required Beta = (0.13-0.0425)/0.06
Required Beta = 1.45
Therefore, average beta of the new stocks =(1.45-($40/$100) *1)/($60/$100)
average beta of the new stocks =1.05/0.6
average beta of the new stocks =1.75
The average beta of the new stocks would be 1.75 to achieve the target required rate of return
