Answer:

0.25

Explanation:

Percentage\ increase\ in\ price=\frac{6-4}{4}\times100

                                                          = 50%

Percentage\ Decrease\ in\ quantity\ demanded=\frac{800-700}{800}\times100

                                                          = 12.5%

Therefore,

price\ elasticity\ of\ demand=\frac{Percentage\ change\ in\ quantity\ demanded}{percentage\ change\ in\ price}

price\ elasticity\ of\ demand=\frac{12.5}{50}

                                                     = 0.25

Hence, the price elasticity of demand over this price range is equal to 0.25

Emma Jones Company has the following information​ available: Account ​12/31/2019 ​12/31/2018 Accounts Payable ​$76,500 ​$80,000
leonid [27]

Answer:

B. No.

Explanation:

The formula to compute the quick ratio is shown below:

Quick ratio = (Quick assets) ÷ (current liabilities)

where,

For 2018

Quick assets = Accounts​ Receivable, net  + Cash and Cash Equivalents + Short minus Term Investments

= $49,000 + $70,000 + $44,000

= $163,000

And, the current liabilities = Accounts Payable +  Income Taxes Payable

                                           =  ​$80,000 + 5,000

                                           = $85,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the ratio would equal to

= $163,000 ÷ $90,000

= 1.81 times

For 2019

Quick assets = Accounts​ Receivable, net  + Cash and Cash Equivalents + Short minus Term Investments

= $42,300 + $43,700 + $27,000

= $113,000

And, the current liabilities = Accounts Payable +  Income Taxes Payable

                                           =  ​$76,500 + 2,000

                                           = $78,500

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the ratio would equal to

= $113,000 ÷ $78,500

= 1.43 times

No, as it shows declining from 2018 to 2019
