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

Nikitich [7]

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

After-tax IRR on total investment in the property = 9.0%

Before-tax IRR on equity invested = 17%

Before-tax IRR on total investment in the property = 12%

t: Marginal tax rate = 0.40

Break Even Interest rate (neither favorable nor unfavorable):

= After tax IRR on total investment ÷ (1 - Tax rate )

= 9% ÷ (1 - 0.40)    

= 9% ÷ 0.60

= 15%

Assuming purchase costs are rising, determine which of the statements below are correct regarding the cost of goods sold under F
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

A

B

C

D

Explanation:

LIFO means last in first out. It means that it is the last purchased inventory that is the first to be sold.

FIFO means first in, first out. It means that it is the first purchased inventory that is the first to be sold

Weighted average cost method calculates the cost of goods sold as the weighted average of cost of inventory

In periods of rising prices, later purchased goods would have a higher price. As a result, LIFO would report a lower net income while companies using FIFO would report the highest gross profit and net income.

Because of the high net income reported under FIFO, tax paid would be the highest too
