Answer:

1

Explanation:

Income elasticity is how the quantity demanded of a product changes due to a change in the income of an individual.

The formula for calculating Income elasticity of demand is, percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in income.

Here the income of Arista increases but the price of gizmos remains the same, that is why the 10% now will be more than what it used to be before the increase in income.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

$1,545,000

Explanation:

The formula to compute the cost of the building equal to

Rate of return = (Rental income - expenses) ÷ (cost of building )

where,

Rate of return = 8%

Rental income equals to

= ($600 × 4 units + $750 ×  4 units + $725 × 4 units + $800 × 4 units) ×  12 months

= $138,000

Total expense

= $1,200 ×  12 month

= $14,400

Now the cost of building would be

8% = ($138,000 - $14,400) ÷ (cost of building )

8% = $123,600

So, the cost of building equal to $1,545,000

Olenka [21]

Answer:The Pet Company has recently discovered a type of rock which, when crushed, is extremely absorbent. It is expected that the firm will experience (beginning now) an unusually high growth rate (20%) during the period (3 years) when it has exclusive rights to the property where this rock can be found. However, beginning with the fourth year the firm's competition will have access to the material, and from that time on the firm will assume a normal growth rate of 8% annually. During the rapid growth period, the firm's dividend payout ratio will be relatively low (20%), to conserve funds for reinvestment. However, the decrease in growth will be accompanied by an increase in dividend payout to 50%. Last year's earnings were $2.00 per share (E0) and the firm's cost of equity is 10%. What should be the current price of the common stock?

  • The fact that the testimonial may not be representative of the experience of other customers.
  • The fact that the testimonial is no guarantee of future performance or success.
  • If more than $100 in value is paid for the testimonial, the fact that it is a paid testimonial.”
