Answer: b) Supply is inelastic and demand is inelastic.
Explanation: Dead-weight loss is the loss in total surplus when a tax is imposed on a good which restricts demand and supply from balancing. When both the demand and the supply curves are inelastic, the effect of a tax will be lead to a small change in the quantity being traded in the market. Thus, the equilibrium quantity at the taxed price will not fall much and the dead weight loss will therefore, be smaller.
Answer:
C. Evoked Set
Explanation:
Evoked set simply describes a set of brand that comes to a buyer's mind when a thinks of buying a product. They are brands that customers are aware of and when they consider buying a product, they think of those they are aware of.

Lots of companies spends a lot in advertising to make it to customers evoked set because of the presumed benefits that comes with it.
Answer:
Inventory turnover period in 2019 =89.3 days
Explanation:
<em>The inventory turnover period also known as the inventory days is the average length of time it takes business to sell its stocks and replace same. The shorter the better as it indicates a high patronage from customers.</em>
It is calculated as follows:
<em>Inventory turnover = (Average inventory / cost of goods ) × 365 days</em>
Note that,
<em>average inventory =( opening inventory + closing inventory)/2</em>
Average inventory = (218,000 + 198,000)/2 = 208,000
<em>Cost of goods sold in 2019</em> = $850,000
Inventory turnover period = (208,000/850,000)× 365 days
=89.3 days
Answer:
Price of bond= $1,185.72
Explanation:
<em>The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.
</em>
These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value
The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:
Step 1
PV of interest payment
annual coupon rate = 7.1%
Annual Interest payment =( 7.1%×$1000)= $71
Annual yield = = 5.5%
PV of interest payment
= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r
A- interest payment, r- yield - 5.5%, n- no of periods -19 periods
= 71× (1-(1.055)^(-19))/0.055)
= 71× 11.60765352
= 824.143
Step 2
PV of redemption value (RV)
PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)
RV - redemption value- $1000, n- 19, r- 5.5%
= 1,000 × (1+0.055)^(-19)
= 361.579
Step 3
Price of bond = PV of interest payment + PV of RV
$824.143 + $361.579
Price of bond= $1,185.72
Answer:
444
Explanation:
Simple Interest for a year can be calculated using
I = PRT/100
P= Principle amount
R= percent simple interest
T= time
(3700)(12)(1)/100 = 444
