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."

icang [17]

Answer: Elasticity of demand is 7.06

Explanation:

P1= $2,750

P2=$2,880

Q1=446,000

Q2=321,000

Elasticity = \frac{Q2 - Q1}{\frac{Q1 + Q2}{2} } * \frac{\frac{P1 + P2}{2} }{P2 - P1}

Elasticity = \frac{321,000 - 446,000}{\frac{446,000 + 321,000}{2} } * \frac{\frac{2750 + 2880}{2} }{2880 - 2750}

Elasticity = \frac{-125,000}{383,500} * \frac{2815}{130}

Elasticity = - 0.3259*21.6598

Elasticity = -0.76

Thus, elasticity of demand for laptops is 7.06. This means that laptops are highly price elastic as it is greater than 1.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The correct answer is E. Share of customer.

Explanation:

Customer participation reflects the way in which customers take part in the process and the degree to which they participate. It is especially important for many service processes, particularly if the contact with the customer is (or should be) high. A good starting point to increase customer participation is to make the process more visible to the customer. Allowing customers to see what normally remains hidden from their view is part of Harvey’s service design, a Canadian chain of fast food restaurants. There you can see the workers in a sanitary and orderly workplace roasting the meat, and one can choose the type of additional ingredients you want. An even bolder step is to allow customers to participate in selected backroom processes, in order to turn them into shown processes.

PolarNik [594]

The 4 stages of development that impacted the Airline Industry are:-

1. <u>Regulation</u>: Strict government control of fares, routes, and entry into markets Regulation resulted from tight ownership control of fares, limited competition on chosen routes, a small market served, a low frequency of city connections, high fares, government bailouts for air carriers, and incentives to increase airline profitability

2. <u>Liberalization</u>: reducing governmental control, increasing bilateral agreements, expanding into new markets, diversifying into new goods, and specialising in specialised markets.

3. <u>Deregulation</u> results in less airfare, improved service, and no government regulation of the market.

4. <u>Re-regulation</u>: Prevent predatory pricing by regulating prices; prohibiting strikes under the Railway Labor Act; updating the air traffic control system to reduce delays; and encouraging development, consolidation, and concentration.
