Here we have not been given the answer choices. However, we can see that these choices are: 2/10 net 30, 2/5 net 30, 2/5 net 20, 1/10 net 45, 1/5 net 15
Here we are to select the best one if you want to forgo the discount. Since you want the discount to be forgone, we will select the plans that offer the least discount which are options 4 and 5 1/10 net 45 and 1/5 net 15.
Net out of these two, the 1/10 net 45 gives you discount of 1% for 10 days with total payable in 45 days and the other one gives you a 1% discount in 5 days. So we would like to select the one with most number of days without discount and this would be 1/10 net 45 and would give you a total of 45 days to pay the credit as against only 15 days in other option.
Hence the option which best suites is 1/10 net 45.
You should make note of the fact that no bill was received but you did make the payment.
Answer:
PED = -0.4 or |0.4| in absolute terms
Explanation:
price elasticity of demand (PED) = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price
- % change in quantity demanded = [(30 - 50) / 50] x 100 = -40%
- % change in price = [($24 - $12) / $12] x 100 = 100%
PED = -40% / 100% = -0.4 or |0.4| in absolute terms
the demand is price inelastic since |0.4| < 1
this means that the change in quantity demanded is proportionally less than the change in price.
Answer:
This is known as a "bait and switch" pricing tactic :)
