Answer: Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Quantity demanded increases by = 30%

Price elasticity of demand = 2

Therefore,

Price elasticity of demand = \frac{Percentage\ change\ in\ quantity\ demanded}{Percentage\ change\ in\ prices}

2 = \frac{30}{Percentage\ change\ in\ prices}

Percentage change in prices = \frac{30}{2}

                                                = 15%

Therefore, price of a particular good decreases by 15%.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

budgeted costs for direct​ materials

  • $88,000

budgeted direct manufacturing​ labor

  • $132,000

budgeted manufacturing​ overhead

  • $18,480

Explanation:

Direct materials costs are $4.00 per pool cue.

Direct manufacturing labor is $6.00​ per pool cue.

Manufacturing overhead is $0.84 per pool cue.

total budgeted direct materials = 22,000 x $4 = $88,000

total budgeted direct labor = 22,000 x $6 = $132,000

total budgeted manufacturing overhead = 22,000 x $0.84 = $18,480

The information about the beginning and ending inventories is not relevant to this question since it only deals with budgeted or estimated costs which may or may not differ from actual costs.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Total dividend paid = $340,000

Preferred dividend = 7% x $4 x 150,000 x 3 years = $126,000

Dividend paid to common stock holders

= $340,000 - $126,000

= $214,000

The correct answer is C

There is need to calculate the preferred dividend for 3 years, which is a function of dividend rate, current market price, number of preferred stocks outstanding  and number of years. The current market price of the preferred stock is used for the computation because the preferred stock has no par value. Then, the amount of dividend paid to common stock holders is the difference between the total dividend paid and preferred dividend.
