Answer:

0.539

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand against the change in price of the product. It shows how much demand changes if there is the change in price.

Under mid-point method the price elasticity can be calculated as follow

where

S = Quantity

P = Price

Change in Quantity = ( S2 - S1 ) / [ ( S2 + S1 )/2 ]

Change in Quantity = ( 6,060 - 7,070 ) / [ ( 6,060 + 7,070 )/2 ]

Change in Quantity = -1,010 / 6,565

Change in Quantity = -0.153846

Change in price = ( P2 - P1 ) / [ ( P2 + P1 )/2 ]

Change in price = ( $4,004 - $3,003 ) / [ ( $4,004 + $3,003 )/2 ]

Change in price  = $1,001 / $3,503.5

Change in price  = 0.285714

Elasticity of Supply = Change in Quantity / Change in Price

Elasticity of Supply = -0.153846 / 0.285714 = -0.5385

Elasticity of Supply = -0.539

Hich pricing strategy involves setting a high price for an exclusive, high-end product?
Sidana [21]
Yes, this encourages the buyer to pay more for an item especially if it is by a well known branded. This gives them to opportunity to brag and boast with their purchase. Also when the product is well known consumers are going to try their absolute best to buy it, this is going to make the product scare, hence increasing its price.

Downing Company issues $4,000,000, 8%, 5-year bonds dated January 1, 2020 on January 1, 2020 (ten periods). The bonds pay intere
zlopas [31]

Answer:

$4,525,123.84

Explanation:

The computation of the proceeds from the issuance of the bond is shown below:

Given that

Face Value of Bonds = $4,000,000

Annual Coupon Rate = 8%

So, Semiannual Coupon Rate = 4%

So, Semiannual Coupon = 4% × $4,000,000

= $160,000

Time to Maturity = 5 years

So, Semiannual Period = 10

And,

Annual Interest Rate = 5%

So, Semiannual Interest Rate = 2.5%

Now the proceeds from the issuance of the bond is

= $160,0000 × PVIFA(2.5%, 10) + $4,000,000 × PVIF(2.5%, 10)

= $160,000 × 8.752064  + $4,000,000 × 0.78120

= $1,400,330.23  + $3,124,793.61

= $4,525,123.84
