Talja [164]

Answer:

C) producers to supply more and consumers to buy less.

Explanation:

The typical supply curve is upward-sloping (higher price leads to higer quantity supplied) and the typical demand curve is downward sloping (higher price lower quantity demanded).

Price is a measure of how much one good can be exchanged for other things. Production incurred cost (tend to rise as more resources become harder to obtain) so to supply more suppliers will demand higher price. Purchasing higher price good means consumers have less money (less of other goods can be bought) consumer will buy less good at higher price.

The company uses the absorption costing approach to cost-plus pricing described in the text. The pricing calculations are based

son4ous [18]

Answer:

$81.96 per unit

Explanation:

For computing the selling price using the absorption costing approach we need to do the following calculations which are shown below:

Unit Product Cost = Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Fixed manufacturing overhead

= $26.50 + 15.50 + 3.70 + [$156,71,400 ÷ 97,000 Units]

= $26.50 + 15.50 + $3.70 + $16.20

= $61.90

Now

Selling and administrative expenses is

=$1,540,000 + [97,000 Units × $3.60]

= $1,540,000 + 349,200

= $1,889,200

And,

Markup on absorption cost

= [(Investment × Return on Investment) + Selling and administrative expenses] ÷ (Number of units × unit product cost)

= [($380,000 × 15%) + 1,889,200] / [97,000 × $61.90]

= $19,46,200 ÷ 60,04,300

= 0.3241 or 32.41%

So,

The selling price based on the absorption costing approach

= Unit product cost × (1 + Markup on absorption cost)

= $61.90 per unit × (1 + 0.3241)

= $81.96 per unit

Answer: True

It can be replaced by traditional systems, however, it is not the most appropriate, because information systems help us organize information about a company so that it can be good for reading, analyzing and making decisions, if it does not comply with these principles then we can say that the company is becoming a bit more inefficient.

Traditional systems work, however, in terms of information systems, we can also have the decrease in information errors, so it is important that they be as automated as possible.

Svetach [21]

Answer:

D. estimate price elasticity of demand by experimenting with different prices

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Demand is elastic if a small change in price has a greater effect on the quantity demanded.

Demand is inelastic if a change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded.

Demand is unit elastic if a change in price has the same proportional change on quantity demanded.

By experimenting with different prices and monitoring the different quantities demanded at each price, a new firm can determine the elasticity of demand for their product.

Price controls are set at the discretion of the government and not by firms.

Shortages imply they quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied. It doesn't give any information on elasticity of demand.
