Due to scarce resources, every individual, whether rich or poor, faces an opportunity cost when choosing to produce or consume more of one good over another.
<h3>What is the problem with scarce resources?</h3>
The gap between scarce resources and hypothetically unbounded needs is referred to as scarcity and is a fundamental economic issue. In order to meet both basic necessities and as many additional wants as feasible, people must decide how to spend resources effectively.
The value of the best option foregone is the opportunity cost of a decision. The state of not being able to obtain all the commodities and services one desires is known as scarcity. It exists because there are more commodities and services that people demand than can be produced with all of the available resources.

Answer:
$412,500
Explanation:
March
Cash receipts from sales on account for April = $400,000 * 75%
Cash receipts = $300,000
April
Cash receipts from sales on account for April = $450,000 * 25%
Cash receipts = $112,500

Total Cash receipts = $300,000 + $112,500
Total Cash receipts = $412,500
Answer:
Highly inelastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand is a measure of the demand of a given service or commodity by utilizing it's price change. It can be calculated using the formula;
Price elasticity of demand=%change in quantity demanded/%change in price
%change in quantity demanded=((Final demand-Initial demand)/Initial demand)×100
((299-300)/300)×100=-0.33%
%change in price=12%
12%>0.33%
The change in price is larger than the change in demand, therefor the product is highly inelastic
