Answer:

A

Explanation:

Price elasticity measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded or supplied of a good to a change in its price. It is computed as the percentage change in quantity demanded—or supplied—divided by the percentage change in price.

Elasticity can be described as elastic—or very responsive—unit elastic, or inelastic—not very responsive.

Elastic demand or supply curves indicate that the quantity demanded or supplied responds to price changes in a greater than proportional manner.

An inelastic demand or supply curve is one where a given percentage change in price will cause a smaller percentage change in quantity demanded or supplied.

Unitary elasticity means that a given percentage change in price leads to an equal percentage change in quantity demanded or supplied.

Semmy [17]

Answer:

a. $12,000

b. $32,000

c. $17,000

Explanation:

The computations are shown below:

a.  Net income = (Income tax paid ÷ Tax rate) – Income tax paid    

Net income = ($3,000 ÷  20%) - $3,000    

                   = $12,000

b.  Revenues = Cost of goods sold + Income tax paid + Administration expense + Interest paid + Depreciation + Net income

= $9,000 + $3,000 + $4,000 + $2,000 + $2,000 + $12,000

= $32,000

3. EBIT = Net income + Interest expense + Taxes

= $12,000 + $2,000 + $3,000

= $17,000

Hunter Sailing Company exchanged an old sailboat for a new one. The old sailboat had a cost of $210,000 and accumulated deprecia
dezoksy [38]

Answer: Gain of $12,000

Explanation:

First off, what was the Net book value of the old sailboat?

= Cost Price - Accumulated Depreciation

= 210,000 - 84,000

= $126,000

They paid $101,000 in cash and received a trade in allowance of $138,000 bringing the value to $239,000.

What they should have received as the trade in allowance was the NBV of $126,000. Since they didn't they got a gain of,

= 138,000 - 126,000

= $12,000

Because this transaction has commercial substance, the gain would be $12,000.
