Demand per hour for gasoline at a local station is normally distributed with a mean of 875 gallons and std deviation of 55 gallo
marusya05 [52]

The probability that demand is greater than 1800 gallons over a 2 hour period is : 0.5

<u>Given data :</u>

Mean value of gasoline per hour = 875 gallons

Standard deviation = 55 gallons

<h3>Determine the probability of demand being greater than 1800 gallons over 2 hours </h3>

Demand for gas in 1 hour = X₁

Demand for gas in 2 hours = X₁ + X₂

Therefore ; ( X₁ + X₂) ~ N ( u₁+u₂, sd₁² + sd₂² )

In order to  calculate probabilities for normals apply the equation below

Z = ( X- u ) / sd

where : u = 1800, sd = √ ( 55² + 55² ) = 77.78

using the z-table

P( Y > 1800) = P( Z > ( 1800 - 1800 ) / 77.78)

                    = P( Z>0 ) = 0.5

Hence we can conclude that The probability that demand is greater than 1800 gallons over a 2 hour period is : 0.5.

Suppose that the price of good X rises from $12.00 to $12.90, and as a result the quantity demanded of good X falls from 5,000 u
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is 1.14.

The price is Elastic.

Elasticity is more than one so total revenue will fall.

Explanation:

Given the initial price of good x = $12

Final price of good x = $12.90

% change in price = [(12.90 - 12) / 12] x 100 = 7.5 %

Initial quantity = 5000

Final quantity = 4600

% change in quantity = [(4600 - 5000)/5000] x 100 = -8%

Elasticity = % change in quantity / % change in price

Elasticity = 8% / 7%

Elasticity = 1.14

The price elasticity of demand is 1.14.

The price is Elastic.

Since elasticity is more than one so total revenue will fall.

15 Total                                 $525,000.00       $120.00

Selling price per unit = $160

Sales volume = 27,000 units

Sales revenue = $4,320,000 ($160 * 27,000)

Variable production cost = $106 per unit

Total variable production costs = $2,862,000 ($106 * 27,000)

Fixed production cost =                     200,000

Total production cost =                $3,062,000

                                                   Total          Per Unit

Sales revenue =                    $4,320,000    $160

Total variable costs              $3,240,000    $120

Contribution =                       $1,080,000      $40

Contribution margin ratio = 25% ($40/$160 * 100)

Total fixed costs:

Production costs = $200,000

Selling and admin = 325,000

Total fixed costs = $525,000

Break-even point = Fixed costs/Contribution margin per unit

= $525,000/$40 = 13,125

Break-even point in dollars = $525,000/25% = $2,100,000
