Sporting goods charges .85 percent interest per month. what rate of interest are its credit customers actually paying?
seraphim [82]
To answer this item, we assume that the interest rate is simple, such that the yearly rate was only divided by 12 months in order to determine the rate per month. Hence, to answer this item, we simply have to multiply the given percent by 12.

                          rate of interest/year = (12)(0.85%) = 10.2%

Therefore, the answer is 10.2%.

When the price of a good is $5, the quantity demanded is 120 units per month; when the price is $7, the quantity demanded is 100
Gre4nikov [31]
Price elasticity can be calculated using the attached formula where:
the first term represents the % change in quantity and the second term represents the % change in price

% change in quantity = (100-120) / (220/2) = -2/11 x 100 = -18.1818%
% change in price = (7-5) / (12/2) = 33.3333%

price elasticity = 18.1818/33.3333 = 0.55

Note that the price elasticity is usually taken as an absolute value.
