Answer:

option D "The demand is unitary elastic."

Explanation:

Data provided:

At price, P1 = 3,000 units

Demand, D1 = $ 50

also,

at price P2 = $ 60

Demand, D2 = 2,500 units

Now,

the percentage change in price = \frac{60-50}{50}\times100

or

the percentage change in price = 20%

and,

The percentage change in the quantity = \frac{2500-3000}{2500}\times100

or

The percentage change in the quantity = -20%

The elasticity in demand (Ed) is given as:

Ed = (Percentage change in quantity) / (Percentage change in price)

on substituting the values, we get

Ed = (-20%) / 20%

or

Ed = - 1

Here the negative sign depicts the inverse relation between the price and the demand.

hence, the correct answer is option D "The demand is unitary elastic."

The top global advertising firms have had a lot of mergers in recent years. why?
Tju [1.3M]
This is because of the rampant advertising activities that can be done through social media and other platforms related to the internet and the global network. The world has become too small already because of the presence of technology in the form of internet connection. The need for advertising firms is no longer that high because with just a click of a button you can already create your own advertising material and reach as many people as you can. This is the reason why a lot of top global advertising firms have seen a lot of mergers in the recent years of advertising.

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

257 boxes

Explanation:

The computation is given below;

Daily Demand would be

= 5000 ÷ 365

Standard Deviation = 10 boxes

Lead Time = 2 Weeks + 3 Days = 17 Days

Service Level = 0.98

Reorder Point = avg(d) × LT + z ×  σd × sqrt(LT)

= 5000 ÷ 365 × 17 + 2.05 × 10 × 170.5

= 317

So, the number of boxes should be ordered is  

= 317 - 60

= 257 boxes
