Answer:

5.26%

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price.

Elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price

3.8 = 20% / percentage change in price

20/3.8 = 5.26%

What are two reasons to save instead of invest?
aliya0001 [1]
Safety and liquidity. Liquidity means the ability to use it at a moments notice and if saved that is possible whereas if invested that may not always be the case. If invested you won’t be able to use the funds immediately or at least you aren’t guaranteed that you can without a delay. The other imp reason is safety. If you save your money it is safe and retains its value but if invested it’s value can fluctuate which you tolerate and expect in the hopes that over time it will earn you more money.

Marco was an economics major in college until he discovered he could major in strength and conditioning. Then he switched majors
Liono4ka [1.6K]

n the video, Marco says he was an economics major in college until he discovered he could major in strength and conditioning. Then he switched majors. Clearly, learning about this field is important to him. Mike and Bob are addressing ............... when they send Marco to seminars instead of, for example, increasing his salary in exchange for his continued high performance at MBSC. They could maintain Marco’s high level of motivation by:........................

A. Sending him on an all-expense-paid Caribbean cruise for two weeks

B. Reimbursing his tuition as he seeks a master’s degree in fitness management

C. Reassuring him that he has a job with MBSC as long as he performs well

D. Setting up an employee discount program at a nearby coffee shop, laundromat, and tasalon

Answer:

Valence

C. Reassuring him that he has a job with MBSC as long as he performs well

Explanation:

By sending Marco to seminars, Mike and Bob are addressing VALENCE;  a psychological value  an individual put on  another person, in relation to the attractiveness of individual whose a psychological value has been placed. In this case, a psychological value placed on Macro by his managers is the valuable rewards they would get from his professional development, rather than increasing his salary in exchange for high performance.

Therefore, they could maintain Marco’s high level of motivation by reassuring him that he has a job with MBSC as long as he performs well.

Nina has a convex utility of wealth function, u(x). She is contemplating two prospects, L and M, where L is a mean preserving sp
Lerok [7]

Answer:

b. Nina will prefer L to M.

Explanation:

Convex utility of wealth indicates that an individual tends to be comfortable with taking risks.

A concave utility function shows an aversion for risk.

A mean preserving spread occurs when one variable has greater variance than another but they both have the same mean.

In the given scenario prospect L will have a greater variance than prospect M since it is a mean preserving spread.

Given Nina's risk taking preference she will most likely take prospect L that offers more variability over prospect M
