Answer:
The elasticity of supply for hot cocoa is 1.43.
(D) Supply in the market for coffee is less elastic than supply in the market for hot cocoa
Explanation:
Using the midpoint formula,
Elasticity of supply for hot cocoa = (change in quantity supplied/average quantity supplied) ÷ (change in price/average price)
change in quantity supplied = 101 - 31 = 70
average quantity supplied = (101+31)/2 = 66
70/66 = 1.06
change in price = 9.75 - 4.5 = 5.25
average price = (9.75+4.5)/2 = 7.125
5.25/7.125 = 0.74
Elasticity of supply for hot cocoa = 1.06 ÷ 0.74 = 1.43. The supply for hot cocoa is elastic because the elasticity of supply is greater than 1.
Elasticity of supply for coffee = (73 - 31)/(73+31)/2 ÷ 0.74 = 42/52 ÷ 0.74 = 0.81 ÷ 0.74 = 1.09. The supply for coffee is elastic because the elasticity of supply is greater than 1.
However, supply in the market for coffee is less elastic than supply in the market for hot cocoa because the elasticity of supply for coffee is less than that of hot coffee.
Answer:
Letter A is correct. <u>Fostering competition.</u>
Explanation:
In this case, it is correct to say that small businesses are fostering competition.
Competition in the business world can be defined as a situation where two or more companies that supply products are rivals in the quest to conquer the same market and the same customers.
Large companies often have some dominance and influence over the market, which means that they impose various barriers to market entry by other competing companies, especially if they are micro-companies. In the case of the above question, when there are a large number of small companies looking to establish themselves in a specific niche in the market, due to possible retaliation by large companies, together, they are exerting an influence on the market that promotes competition.
Answer:

Explanation:
Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in this scenario the order that Wally should seek is known as Specific performance. This is a court order which forces the breaching party to perform the agreed upon act, and by doing so complete the agreed upon specifications set forth by the contract. Failure to do so will find the individual in contempt of court.
Answer:
Price of bond= $1,922.92
Explanation:
<em>The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV). </em>
Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV
Semi-annual interest = 4.93% × 2,000 × 1/2 =49.3
Semi-annual yield = 5.29%/2= 2.65%
PV of interest payment
PV = A (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r
A- 49.3, r-0.02645, n- 16×2
= 49.3× (1-(1.02645)^(-10)/0.02645)
= 1,055.521
PV of redemption Value
<em>PV = F × (1+r)^(-n)
</em>
F-2000, r-0.02645, n- 16
×2
PV = 2,000 × 1.02645^(-16×2)
PV = 867.402
Price of Bond
1055.52 + 867.40 =1,922.92
= $1,922.92
