6 0

Explanation:

Let us understand the term what is elastic & "inelastic".

Elastic: It is the change in the behavior of the buyer & the seller when the product price changes.

Elastic goods will always have an substitute.

Example: Books, pencil, Notebook, bread, etc,

Inelastic means: This is opposite of elastic. There will be same number of buyers when the price goes up or down.

Whether the price gets raise or lower daily we need food. So food is inelastic.

Eg.  food, prescription drugs, and tobacco products

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Safety Needs

Explanation:

If Helène, an industrial sales representative, bought a cellular phone to use if she ever had car trouble while traveling between appointments. The level of Maslow’s need hierarchy that Helène is addressing is Safety Needs

It would have been 'Esteem needs' if Helene was just buying a phone to be in the same class with her friends or she is changing her phone to reflect her class.

However Helene is buying this phone because she wants to keep appointments which falls in the category of employments and hence is a 'Safety need'.

Safety needs in Maslow's hierarchy has to do with the need for security and protection. If Helene's car breaks down, it could also be a threat to her security if she is unable to call for help

Wood Carving Corporation manufactures three products. Because of a recent lack of skillled wood carvers, the corporation has had
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

C. $19,600

Explanation:

The contribution margin per hour can be obtained by dividing the difference between the price and variable costs by the number of labor hours required.

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}\ &LO&ES&CH\\Price&30&80&42\\Cost&20&40&20\\Labor \ hours&1&6&2\\margin\ per\ hour&10&6.67&11\end{array}\right]

Since the candle holders yield the greatest contribution per hour, the maximum of 800 units of this product should be produced. The remaining labor hours after producing candle holders is:

LH_1 = 1,800 - 800*2 = 200

The remaining hours should be used to produce letter openers since they provide the next best contribution per hour. 200 letter openers can be produced with the remaining hours.

The maximum contribution margin that Wood Carving can generate next month is:

CM = 200*(\$30-\$20)+800*(\$42-\$20)\\CM=\$19,600
