Answer:

-0.34

Explanation:

Given that,

Percentage increase in prices = 5%

Initial quantity demanded = 30,000

New quantity demanded = 2,500

By midpoint method,

Average quantity :

= (Initial quantity  + New quantity) ÷ 2

= (30,000 + 2,500) ÷ 2

= 16,250

Change in quantity = (2,500 - 30,000)

                                = -27,500

Therefore, the price elasticity of demand is as follows:

= (Change in demand ÷ Average quantity demanded) ÷ Percentage increase in prices

= (-27,500 ÷ 16,250) ÷ 5

= -1.69 ÷ 5

= -0.34

You just purchased an existing business that produces solar panels according to the following production function:
frez [133]

Answer:

<u>$50</u>

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the production function, Q = K0.5L0.5,

K denotes the fixed input in the short run.

First, we calculate the total cost:

Cost of Capital= 25 x $1 = $25

Cost of Labor (for a start 25 workers are used)= 25 x $1 = $25

Total= $50

Since the price of the solar panels is $100, substrating from the total cost $50 (100-50) we get $50 profit per unit of solar panel.

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The amount to be reported as the cost of the land is  $101,000

Explanation:

Given information

Paid cash - $90,000

Cost of property $7,600

Salvaged materials - $1,700

Attorney's fee for work concerning the land purchase -  $1,100

Real estate broker's fee -  $4,000

Architect's fee - $7,800    

Put in driveways and a parking lot - $14,000

For computing the amount of the cost of the land, the Architect's fee and Put in driveways and a parking lot is not considered as it is not related to the land expenses. The computation is shown below

= Cash amount + Cost of property - Salvaged materials + Attorney's fee + Real estate broker's fee

= $90,000 + $7,600 - $1,700 + $1,100 + $4,000

= $101,000

Thus, the amount to be reported as the cost of the land is  $101,000

= $330,000

And, in case of buying the product

= 20,000 × $17

= $340,000

So there is a decrease of $10,000
