5 0

Which type of investment is most likely to have the greatest long-term increase in value? Stocks and bonds. Stocks and bonds when a company purchases a new asset is one of the best long-term investments you can invest in. Due to them being long-term investments, the asset needs time to accumulate more value for what it's worth before you sell it. Long-term investments value tends to rise overtime and not often would a short-term investment hold if kept to long.

The price of good X increases from $55 to $60, and quantity demanded decreases from 500 to 400. The price of good Y increases fr

Answer:

demand curve for Good X is more elastic than the demand curve for Good Y

Demand for good X is elastic because the coefficient of elasticity is greater than 1.

Demand for good Y is inelastic because the coefficient of elasticity is less than 1.

consumers who buy Good Y are less sensitive to price changes than consumers who buy Good X

Explanation:

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

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.

For good X,

Percentage change in price = $55 / $60 - 1 = | -0.0833| = 8.33%

Percentage change in quantity demanded = 500 / 400 - 1 = 0.25 = 25%

Elasticity of demand = 25% / 8.33% = 3

Demand for good X is elastic because the coefficient of elasticity is greater than 1.

For good Y,

Percentage change in price = $55 / $60 - 1 = | -0.0833| = 8.33%

Percentage change in quantity demanded = 500 / 475 - 1 = 0.0526 = 5.26%

Elasticity of demand = 5.26% / 8.33% = 0.63

Demand for good Y is inelastic because the coefficient of elasticity is less than 1.

consumers who buy Good Y are less sensitive to price changes than consumers who buy Good X

You buy a seven-year bond that has a 6.50% current yield and a 6.50% coupon (paid annually). In one year, promised yields to mat

Harlamova29_29 [7]

The current yield and annual coupon rate of 6.50% show that the bond price was at par a year ago.

The givens are FV=1,000, n= 6, PMT = 65.00, and i= 7.50 so with this we know that the selling price this year is $953.06.

So the holding period return is $1,000+$953.06+$65.00

$1,000=0.0181=1.81%

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": False.

Explanation:

The flow-down in management represents the activities executives perform when each individual department establishes their objectives and they are reported to the next level in the hierarchy department so the manager of that department approves or modifies it to align the overall organization's goals.

Setting the corporation's vision and mission is not part of this approach.

Computing Gross Profit The following data were taken from the accounts of Fluter Hardware, a small retail business. Sales $121,8

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

$46,430

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Sales = $121,800

Sales returns and allowances = 970

Sales discounts = 560

Merchandise inventory, January 1 = 34,300

Purchases during the period = 76,700

Purchases returns and allowances during the period = 3,820

Purchases discounts taken during the period = 2,460

Freight-in on merchandise purchased during the period = 1,120

Merchandise inventory, December 31 = 32,000

Now,

Net sales = Sales - Sales returns and allowances - Sales discounts

= $121,800 - $970 - $560

= $120,270

Cost of good sold

= Opening Inventory + Net purchases + Freights - Closing Inventory

= 34,300 + ( 76,700 - 3,820 - 2,460 ) + 1,120 - 32,000

= $73,840

Therefore,

Gross profit = Net sales - Cost of good sold

= $120,270 - $73,840

= $46,430
