Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": the effect of the decrease in price on total revenue dominates the effect of the increase in quantity demanded on total revenue; overall total revenue declines.

Explanation:

Goods or services have inelastic demand when changes in prices do not affect their quantity demanded. If prices decrease or increase, the quantity demanded will remain at the same level or the change will be so minimal that it is not perceived. It is said then that the decrease in price dominates the effect of the changes in quantity demanded.

However, if prices decrease and the quantity demanded remains the same, the company's overall revenue will decrease.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

I agree with Mike because pure risks involve only possible losses. Since he owns his house, the possibility of it burning down would represent only a loss to him.

But if he buys insurance, he will pay an insurance premium which means that if the house burns down, the company will lose money, but if the hose doesn't burn down, the insurance company will make a profit. This represents speculative risk because the possibility of a gain and a loss exist.
