Answer:
b. small percentage changes in the price will lead to much larger percentage changes in the quantity demanded.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand is a measure of how responsive is quantity demanded to change in price. Its formula is given by:
=
= % Change in Quantity Demanded / % Change in Price
So when absolute value is greater than 1, a x percentage change in price will lead to larger than x percentage change in quantity demanded.
<u>Note</u>: Whether the percentage change in quantity demanded will be just a little or very much larger than percentage change in price will depend on how much is larger than 1. But b is the still the best answer among the options.
Answer:
10%
Explanation:
Given that,
Interest at last year debt = 8%
Current year cost of debt = 25% higher
Firms paid for debt last year = 10%
Firms paid for debt in current year = 12.50%
Kd - cost of debt
Yield = Interest at last year debt × (1 + increase in cost of debt)
= 8% × (1 + 0.25)
= 8% × 1.25
= 10%
Kd = Yield (1 – T)
Kd = 10% (1 – 0)
= 10% (1)
= 10%
Therefore, after tax cost of debt would be 10%.
Answer:
$275,000
Explanation:
Goodwill in business combination arises when the price paid in acquiring a business exceeds the fair value of the acquired business net assets . The fair value is used rather than the carrying amount to ensure fairness and an unbiased result
<u>Workings</u>
Purchase consideration = 250,000*15 =3,750,000
Percentage acquired = 100%
Fair value of net asset = 3,000,000+400,000+75,000= 3,475,000
Goodwill = 3,750,000=3,475,000 =275,000
Answer:
(c) 7.5 bars, 2/15 shirts
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is simply defined as the next best alternative.
Opportunity cost also refers to the loss of foregone gain which could have resulted had a non chosen option been selected over the chosen option. For instance, the opportunity cost of storing money at home is the average market rate of interest which would've been earned had the same money been invested.
In the given question, the opportunity cost of a t shirt would be :
=
= 7.5 protein bars
Similarly, the opportunity cost for a protein bar would be:
=
=
Thus, the correct option is (c) 7.5 bars, 2/15 shirts
