Answer: The answer is -2.42
Explanation:
P1 = $4 Q1 = 800
P2 = $4.50 Q2 = 600
Using the midpoint formula, we have:
For price:
P2 - P1/(P2 + P1)/2
= 4.5 - 4/(4.5 + 4)/2
= 0.5/4.25
= 0.12
For quantity:
Q2 - Q1/(Q2 + Q1)/2
= 600 - 800/(600 + 800)/2
= -200/700
= -0.29
Price elasticity of demand = change in quantity/change in price
= -0.29/0.12
= -2.42.
Answer:
920 (Unfavorable)
Explanation:
Labor rate variance = Actual direct labor hours (Actual direct labor rate - Standard direct labor rate)
Labor rate variance = 2,300 * ($21.7 - $21.3)
Labor rate variance = 2,300 * 0.4
Labor rate variance = 920 (Unfavorable)
Answer:
The right choice is "3 Correctly ignored a sunk cost"
Explanation:
As the ticket to the opera was already bought and it is nonrefundable, nonexchangeable, and nontransferable; whether Van decides to go to the opera or to go to the party with Amy; he has incurred $100 cost of ticket which can not be recovered in any manner.
The ticket cost in this question is categorized as sunk cost - cost that incurred in the past and will be remained the same regardless of any future actions. Thus, this type of cost should be ignored when making decision for the future.
So, "3 Correctly ignored a sunk cost" is the correct choice.
It can be all of them or the last 4
