Answer:

e) perfectly elastic

Explanation:

Elasticity is a measure of the sensitivity of demand to the price of a product. If demand is elastic, bidders should avoid raising prices as demand decreases considerably. Conversely, when demand is inelastic, consumers are less sensitive to price changes. When demand is perfectly elastic, this means that a slight increase in the price of a good will cause all demand to flow to a competing supplier. This is observed in competitive markets where providers provide the same type of good for the market price. If one of them raises the price, he loses all of his market share. This is because consumers are rational and will buy the product that is offered at the lowest possible price.

QS 19-10 Computing contribution margin LO P2 D’Souza Company sold 6,000 units of its product at a price of $88.00 per unit. Tota
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

$218,400

Explanation:

The computation of contribution margin is here below:-

                                               Units       Cost per unit         Total

Sales                                     6,000        $88                       $528,000

Less:

Variable production cost     6,000        $40.8                  $244,800

Variable selling and

administrative costs        6,000         $10.8                   $64,800

Contribution margin                                                           $218,400

Therefore the we multiplied the sale unit with cost per unit, in the similar way we multiplied the Variable production cost unit with cost per unit and Variable selling and administrative costs with cost per unit to reach the contribution margin.

Talja [164]

Answer:

r = 0.080528395 = 8.05%

Winner's Prize at 2044:  $ 15,215,114.02

Explanation:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 160

Amount 1,610,000

time: 2015 - 1896 = 119

160 \: (1+ r)^{119} = 1,610,000\\ r = \sqrt[119]{1,610,000 / 160} -1

r = 0.080528395

If the same rate for the winner's prize is being keep by 2044 the winner will get:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 1,610,000.00

time 29.00 (2044 - 2015)

rate 0.08053

1610000 \: (1+ 0.0805283946683808)^{29} = Amount

Amount 15,215,114.02
