Price Elasticity of Supply. The price elasticity of supply is calculated as the percentage change in quantity divided by the percentage change in price.
 Using the Midpoint Method
 PES = ((Q2-Q1) / ((Q2 + Q1) / 2)) / ((P2-P1) / ((P2 + P1) / 2))
 PES = (((10) - (7)) / (((10) + (7)) / 2)) / (((50) - (40)) / (((50) + (40)) / 2))
 PES = 1.59
 the elasticity of beth's labor supply between the wages of $ 40 and $ 50 per hour is approximately 1.59
 In this case, to 1% rise in price causes an increase in quantity supplied of 1.59%

The double-entry principle in the balance-of-payments
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The Current account is for goods and services.

The Financial account is for exchange of currencies and financial assets across countries.

Miguel, a U.S. resident, buys an HDTV set for  $2,500 and sends it to Mexico as a gift to his parents. <u>DEBIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. CREDIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. </u>

Miguel buys the good in the U.S. and then sends it so this falls under the current account alone.

Arielle, a French tourist, stays at a hotel in San  Francisco and pays $400 for it with her debit  card issued by a French bank. <u>DEBIT FINANCIAL ACCOUNT. CREDIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. </u>

The Financial account should be debited to show that currency is coming into the U.S. from outside the country and current account should be credited for services rendered.

A U.S. computer manufacturer purchases hard  drives from a Korean company, paying the funds  from its bank account in Korea. <u>DEBIT CURRENT ACCOUNT. CREDIT FINANCIAL ACCOUNT. </u>

Current account should be debited to reflect that goods are coming into the country but the financial account should be credited to show that currency is leaving the ownership of an American entity so it is passing out of American hands.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

According to the law of supply, an increase in the supply of workers for a job if all other factors remain equal means the company wants to be efficient and it is also proof that the company is making more profit which signals the demand for the commodities they produced as increased drastically.

Explanation:

The law of supply work in the dimension of price, the number of goods available in the market, and it is hugely affected by demand. Now, when the price of goods decreases, it makes production by producers decrease as well and staffs are also laid off to avoid profit loss by the producers. This changes when the price of commodity increases as it makes producers of the commodity have the capacity to employ more staff to maximize time and this also causes the producers to increase sales. However, the higher demand for a commodity would also increase the supply of that commodity.
