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>

The following are exogenous (not directly affected by income): G = 11 I = 4 X = M = 0 The consumption function is: C = k + cY, w
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: the answer is 90.0

Explanation:

From the question above, we are given:

G = 11

I = 4

X = M = 0

Consumption function is:

C = k + cY

Where:

k = 3

c = 0.8

The GDP of a nation is given as:

Y = C + I + G + NX

By imputing the values into the GDP equation, we have:

Y = k + cY + 4 + 11 + 0

Y = 3 + 0.8Y +15

Y - 0.8Y = 18

0.2Y = 18

Y = 90.0

klemol [59]

Answer:

Alex may have to lower the price to convince Clara to buy a second slice.

Explanation:

Marginal utility is an economic concept that says that a consumer recieves more marginal utility in the first consumption of a good or services than in the second and the subsequents. In fact with each consumption the marginal utility reduces, this effect is known as diminishing marginal utility.

One of the the methods to reduce the effects of the diminishing marginal utility is to reduces prices. As the utility of a product decreases as its consumption increases, consumers are willing to pay smaller amount of money for more of the product.
