When an economist says that "Kevin's income elasticity of red wine is 6" he means that if Kevin's income increases by 10%, the quantity of red wine demanded by Kevin rises by 60%. So, red wine is income elastic. Since the income elasticity is greater than 1, red wine is a luxury good for Kevin.
Income elasticity measures the change in the quantity of goods demanded relative to a change in income.
If an increase in income results in a decrease in the quantity of goods demanded, then that good is an inferior or cheap good. The income elasticity of a cheap good is negative.
If the demand for a good rises with an increase in income, then that good is a normal good. The income elasticity of normal goods is greater than zero.
If an increase in income results in a greater increase in the quantity of goods demanded, then that good is a luxury good. The income elasticity of a luxury good is greater than 1.
Answer:

Explanation:
Options are : <em>"a. The curve would not shift, the change in unemployment would be represented by moving from a point inside the curve toward the curve, b. The curve would shift to the left, c. The curve would not shift, the change in unemployment would be represented by moving from a point on the curve to a point outside the curve. d. The curve would shift to the right."</em>
Reduction in unemployment means that the resources are being well utilized , the ideal resources in the economy is being used , so the economy moves from an inefficient point to an efficient one.

Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Future value= 5,000*4= $20,000
i= 8%
number of years= 5 years
To calculate the present value of the investment, we need to use the following formula:
PV= FV/ (1+i)^n
PV= 20,000/ (1.08^5)
PV= $13,611.664
Answer:
12.44%
Explanation:
The computation of the return on assets is shown below:
As we know that
Return on asset = Net income ÷ Average of total asset
= ($26,000) ÷ ($184,000 + $234,000) ÷ 2
= ($26,000) ÷ ($209,000)
= 12.44%
We simply applied the above formula so that the return on assets could be determined
Therefore we considered all the information given in the question
