Answer:

Explanation:

In using the midpoint method to calculate price elasticity , the average percentage change in the price and quantity are used

formula = percentage change in quantity = (Q2 -Q1/(Q2+Q1)/2)*100

Percentage change in price = ( P2 -P2/(P2-P1)/2)*100

Price changes = $1.5 to $1.3

Quantity changes = 60 to 100

Percentage in price = (1.3-1.5 /(1.5+1.3)/2 )*100

(-0.2/1.4)*100 =-14.29%

Percentage in quantity = (100-60/(100+60)/2)*100

40/80*100 = 50%

Therefore , price elasticity of demand = 50/-14.29 = -3.5

With the elastic interval being less than 1 , it means that it is an inelastic  demand

Kingbird Inc. owns equipment that cost $672,000 and has accumulated depreciation of $174,000. The expected future net cash flows
aev [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this scenario, we compare the values between book value and the fair value of equipment, the difference would be the loss on impairment of the asset

In mathematically,  

= Book value - fair value

where,

Book value = Equipment cost - accumulated depreciation

                   = $672,000 - $174,000

                   = $498,000

And, the fair value is $384,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $498,000 - $384,00

= $114,000

Now the journal entry would be

Loss on impairment A/c Dr $114,000

      To Accumulated depreciation A/c $114,000

(Being the impairment loss is recorded)

As the owner of a party store, you have decided to lower the price for all balloons this month. What do you expect to happen?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Quantity demanded for balloons will increase.

Explanation:

According to the law of demand, there is an inverse relationship between the price of the commodity and the quantity demanded for that commodity.

This means that if there is an increase in the price of a good then as a result the quantity demanded for that good decreases and on the other hand if there is a fall in the price of a good then as a result the quantity demanded for that good increases.

Therefore,

Fall in the price of balloons will lead to increase the quantity demanded for balloons.
