Answer: This is the correct and complete question ; The demand function for a product is given by p = -0.05x2 - 0.3x + 0.8, where p is the unit price in dollars and x is the weekly demand for the product each week, measured in thousands of units. Find the consumer's surplus if the market price for the product is $5.
Answer for the consumer surplus is 7033.3million
Explanation:
The concept of consumer surplus shows the disparity between the price that consumers are willing to pay for a product in the market and the actual price they do pay on a product. Consumer Surplus is also the difference between the price that a consumer is willing to pay for a commodity and the price that the consumer actually pays. For example, if you would pay 76p for a cup of tea, but can buy it for 50p – your consumer surplus is 26p
Consumer surplus is measured as the area below the downward-sloping demand curve, or the amount a consumer is willing to spend for given quantities of a good, and above the actual market price of the good, depicted with a horizontal line drawn between the y-axis and demand curve.
The attached below shows the detailed calculations with steps.
Answer:
Option B is correct one.
Explanation:
No, the positive correlation just shows that richer countries have both more nintendos and higher life expectancies it makes no sense to calculate correlation between these two variables.
Answer:
9.2%
Explanation:
expected return of the investment = potential return x chance of each return happening
Expected return of the investment:
- 20% chance of occurring x 30% potential return = 0.2 x 30% = 6%
- 50% chance of occurring x 10% potential return = 0.5 x 10% = 5%
- 30% chance of occurring x -6% potential return = 0.3 x -6% = -1.8%
- total expected return = 9.2%
Answer: is an indication that product demand is declining.
Explanation:
The negative sign on the slope of the time-series trend equation simply explains that the product demand is declining.
A negative slope indicates that two variables are negatively related which implies that when the value of x increases, rhen the value of y decreases, and vice versa. When putting this in a graph, the line falls when the line that's on the line graph shifts from left to right.
The correct option is C
Answer:
The sales price per unit will be $6.75.
Explanation:
The break even point is where the total revenue is total cost such that profit equals zero.
The break even level of output is 5,000 units.
The fixed costs is $30,000.
The variable cost per unit is $.75.
The total variable cost is
= 
= $3750
The total cost will be
= $30,000 + $3,750
= $33,750
Which is also equal to total revenue
Now,
Total revenue = 
$33,750 = 
Price = 
Price = $6.75
