Suppose the price of apples goes up from $20 to $22 a box. In direct response, Goldsboro Farms supplies 1,200 boxes of apples in
OLga [1]

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.

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

1,2,4,3

Explanation:

Liquidity measures how quickly an asset can be converted and used as a medium of exchange.

$50 bill is the most liquid because it can be readily used as a medium of exchange without any conversion.

The funds in a savings account is the second most liquid because because it must first be withdrawn from a bank account before it can be used as a medium of exchange. It can be converted to a medium of exchange within a day.

A bond issued by a publicly traded company is the third most liquid because it takes a longer period for it to be converted to cash.

A boat is the least liquid because it takes a long while to find a buyer for a boat.

I hope my answer helps you.
