Answer:

By the midpoint formula, his income elasticity of demand for pro football game tickets is equal to <u>+3</u>, and football game tickets are <u>normal</u> goods.

Explanation:

The formula for calculating income elasticity of demand using the midpoint method is:

income elasticity of demand = {change in quantity demanded / [(old quantity + new quantity) / 2]} / {change in income / [(old income + new income) / 2]}

= {2 / [(2 + 4) / 2]} / {10,000 / [(40,000 + 50,000) / 2]} = (2 / 3) / (10,000 / 45,000) = 0.67 / 0.222 = 3

when the income elasticity of demand is higher than 1, the goods are normal goods.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

Entry to record adjustment:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

Explanation:

The question relates to a change in accounting policy. According to IAS 8 (changes in accounting policy and estimate), a change in accounting policy is to be reflected retrospectively and prospectively, which means any changes should be implemented by bringing changes in the past records. Since CPS company has been using FIFO method, the inventory has been overstated in the financial statements. A shift to AVCO has resulted in a decrease in inventory value.

The value of inventory has to be reduced as a result of change in accounting policy (i.e $38m - $28.6m). This is the closing inventory so a reduction in the value of closing inventory results in an increase in cost of goods sold (COGS), therefore, the adjusting entry will be aimed at reducing inventory and increasing cost of goods sold, see as follows:

Entry:

COGS Dr $9.4m

         Inventory Cr $9.4m

If when the price of product e decreases by 2%, this causes its quantity demanded to increase by 14% and the quantity demanded f
hodyreva [135]
Cross elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness in the quantity demand of one good when a change in price takes place in another commodity or good. It is calculated by dividing the percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good by the percentage change in price of other good.
Therefore, in this case, cross elasticity of demand will be;
   17%/-2% = - 8.5   (-2% because its a decrease)
Thus , the elasticity will be -8.5

All of the following statements regarding convertible bonds are true except:_________.
postnew [5]

Answer: Holders of convertible bonds can choose how many shares of stock to receive at conversion

Explanation:

A convertible bond is a debt security that yields the payment of interest, but can also be converted into equity shares or common stock that are predetermined.

The option that holders of convertible bonds can choose how many shares of stock to receive at conversion is wrong. This is because the number I shares that will be eventually converted will already have been fixed.
