Suppose the own price elasticity of demand for good X is -3, its income elasticity is -2, its advertising elasticity is 4, and t

Andrew [12]

Answer:

a. 21 percent

b. -20 percent

c. -8 percent

d. -8 percent

Explanation:

Own price elasticity = -3

Income elasticity = -2

Advertising elasticity= 4

Cross price elasticity = -2

Formula for elasticity is given by,

$Elasticity = \frac{Percentage change in Quantity}{Percentage change in factor}$

a. When price of good X decreases by 7 percent.

$Elasticity = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{Percent change in own price}$

$-3 = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{-7}$

$Percent change in quantity = (-3) * (-7) = 21$

Thus, as price decreases by 7% quantity rises by 21%.

b. The price of good Y increases by 10 percent.

$Corss- price elasticity = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{Percent change in Price of good Y} \\ -2 = \frac{Percent change in quantity }{10} \\Percent change in quantity = (-2) * (10) \\ = -20$

Thus, as price of good Y increases by 10 percent, demand for good X falls by 20 percent.

c. Advertising decreases by 2 percent.

$Elasticity = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{Percent change in advertising} \\4 = \frac{Percent change in quantity }{-2} \\Percent change in quantity = (-2) * (4) \\ = -8$

Thus, a 2 percent decline in advertising will lead to a 8 percent fall in quantity of good X.

d. Income increases by 4 percent.

$Income elasticity = \frac{Percent change in quantity }{Percent change in income}\\-2 = \frac{Percent change in quantity}{4} \\Percent change in quantity = (-2) * (4) \\ = -8\\$

Thus, when income increases by 4 percent, quantity decreases by 8 percent.

The range rule of thumb roughly estimates the standard deviation of a data set as _______.

goblinko [34]

Range is the measure of variation that is very sensitive to extreme values. It is the difference between high and low values, while standard deviation is the standard measure of variation.The range rule of thumb roughly estimates the standard deviation of a data set as s=range/4 , where s stands for standard deviation and
<span>range = Maximum - Minimum</span>

The Petit Chef Co. has 7 percent coupon bonds on the market with 9 years left to maturity. The bonds make annual payments and ha

uysha [10]

Answer:

The yield to maturity is 6.45%.

Explanation:

Yield to Maturity (YTM) is the long term yield on the bond based on the assumption that the bond is held till maturity. The Yield to Maturity is calculated using the formula as shown in the attachment,

The coupon payment on bonds is = 1000 * 0.07 = 70

YTM = ( 70 + (1000 - 1038.5)/9 ) / ((1000 + 1038.5) / 2)

YTM = 0.06448 or 6.448% rounded off to 6.45%

Johns Company manufactures products R, S, and T from a joint process. The following information is available: Product R S T Tota

Kryger [21]

Answer:

C) $ 80,000 $ 70,000

Explanation:

R = ($48,000/$120,000) x $200,000

=0.4×$200,000

= $80,000

S = $200,000-$50,000-$80,000

= $70,000

Therefore the sales value at split-off for products R is $80,000 and S $70,000
