Let
z----------------- > Price Elasticity
x----------------- > % Change in Quantity
y----------------- > % Change in Price

we Know that

Price Elasticity = (% Change in Quantity) / (% Change in Price)----> z=x/y

z=-2
y=-10%
x= <span>?
</span>z=x/y---------------- > x=z*y=(-2)*(-10)=20 %
% Change in Quantity=20%
Part A) how many pizzas will he sell if he cuts his price by 10%?
He will sell (500 +20 %)----------> 500*1.2=600 pizzas per week

the answer part A is 600 pizzas per week

Part B) <span>how will his revenue be affected?
<span>initial revenue per week
</span>500 pizzas*</span><span>$20 =$10000

final revenue per week
(500 pizzas+20%) *(</span>$20-10%)=600 pizzas*$18=$10800
$10800-$10000=$800
<span>
the answer part B is
His revenue </span><span>will increase  $800 per week</span>

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The correct word for the blank space is: buffer.

Doss [256]

Answer:

The amount of depreciation expense the lessee should record for the first year of the lease is $108,000

Explanation:

To calculate the depreciation expense for each year the first thing you have to do is to substruct from the initial value the fair value at the end fo the lease, obtaining this way the depreciable amount.

For this case it would be:

$810,000 - $270,000= $540,000

Then you have to divide the depreciable amount by the years of the term the lease.

$540,000/5= $108,000

Assume you borrowed $100,000 at a fixed rate of 7 percent for 30 years to purchase a house. If the inflation rate is 3 percent,
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

(A) less

Explanation:

Given a positive inflation rate, the real value of the dollar will depreciate by the rate of inflation annually.

Thus, for a house that cost $100,000 today, given a 3% inflation rate, it would cost (100,000 * 1.03 = ) $103,000 after a year.

This means, $100,000 today will have the same value as $103,000 one year later.

Therefore, repayments, which will likely be a fixed sum every year, will have a lower purchasing power as the year progresses.
