Answer:

should it hold the price constant and meet all the excess demand with an increase in production

Explanation:

to determine if the firm should increase their price or not, we have to determine the elasticity of demand.

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.  the absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

elasticity of demand = 15% / 10% = 1.5

Demand is elastic. if price is increased, the quantity demanded would fall more than the change in price and total revenue would fall.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

$200,000

Explanation:

The value of the government obligation = $5,00,000, 8%, 20 years bonds payable at 103

Interest expenses = $5,000,000 * 8/100 * 6/12 = $200,000.

Thus, $200,000 will be reported as debt service expenses in the fiscal year 20X7.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Required rate of return = 10.75%

Explanation:

<em>The value of a stock using the dividend valuation model, is the present value of the expected future dividends discounted at the required rate of return. The required rate of return is the cost of equity </em>

The model is represented below:

P = D× (1+g)/ ke- g

Ke- cost of equity, g - growth rate, p - price of the stock

This model can used to work out the cost of equity, as follows:

Ke = D× (1+g)/p + g

Ke = (1.48× 1.05)/27   + 0.05

Ke= 0.107555556

Required return =  0.1075  × 100 = 10.75

Required rate of return = 10.75%
