Answer:

Alaska  =   46.99 units

Best buy = 58.34 units

Ford Motor =  584.11 units

Explanation:

<em>To determine the unit of each class of stock to purchase, we wll multiply each of the percentages by the total fund to be arrive the proportion of fund to be invested in each class. </em>

<em>Further more, we will  divide the allocated amount by the share price  per unit</em>

Shares to be purchased to have the given proportion would be '

Alaska (20%)  =(20%× 10,000)/42.56=       46.99 units

Best buy (30%)   = (30% × 10,000)/ 51.42 = 58.34 units

Ford Motor (50%) = (50% × 10,000)/ 8.56 =  584.11 units

Basile [38]

Answer:

PED= 0.1571

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand (PED) indicates how the quantity demanded change when the price changes. Is defined by this equation:  

Price Elasticity of Demand = Percentage change in Q/ Percentage change in P  

In this case, the problem is giving percentage changes in Q but we must calculate the percentage change in price:

%Change in price = ( p2-p1/p1)*100= ($4.09-$2.96)/$2.96= 0.3817*100=38.17%

%Change in quantity is= -6%

PED= -6%/38.17%

In absolute value:

PED= 0.1571

If the PED is less than 1 then gasoline is considered as inelastic.
