Answer:

The question is incomplete; Calculate the price elasticity of demand

The answer is -2 showing that the Price Elasticity of Demand for the good in question is highly elastic.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of Demand  =  percent change in quantity  / percent change in price

percent change in quantity =  {Q 2 − Q 1 / [( Q 2 + Q 1 ) ÷ 2]} × 100

percent change in price  = {P 2 −  P1 / [( P 2 +  P1 ) ÷ 2]} × 100

percent change in quantity= {25 − 20/ [(25 +20) ÷ 2]} × 100= 22.2%

percent change in price  = {8-10 / [( 8+10) ÷ 2]} × 100 = -11.11%

Price Elasticity of Demand  = 22.2% / -11.11%= <u>-2</u>

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer: b. Its quick ratio decreases.

Explanation:

The Quick ratio is calculated net of inventory to determine if a company can cover its current liabilities with its more liquid current assets. The formula is to subtract Inventory from the Current Assets and then divided that by the Currency liabilities.

The Quick ratio will be less than before because the number of current assets will not change but the amount of current liabilities will change as the goods were purchased on credit. With a larger denominator, the resultant ratio will be less than before.

The following income statement was produced when volume of sales was at 400 units. Sales Revenue $ 1,600 Variable Cost 700 Contr
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

If volume reaches 500 units, net income will be: $715

Explanation:

When  volume of sales was at 400 units:

Selling price per unit = Sales Revenue/400 = $1,600/400 = $4

Variable Cost per unit = Variable Cost/400 = $700/400 = $1.75

If volume reaches 500 units:

Total Sales Revenue = $4 x 500 = $2,000

Variable Cost = $1.75 x 500 = $875

Fixed Cost will not change = $410

Net income = Total Sales Revenue - Variable Cost - Fixed Cost = $2,000 - $875 - $410 = $715
