Answer and Explanation:

(a) ε = %ΔQ/%Δp

       = ((200,000 − 250,000)/250,000)/((12 − 10)/10)

       = −1.00.

Demand is unit elastic since | ε | = 1.00. Alternatively, if a price increase of 20 percent leads to a 20 percent decline in ticket sales, the elasticity is −20/20 or −1.00.

(b) The price increase is not a good idea . Total revenues have fallen from $2,500,000 = (250,000)(10) to $2,400,000 = (200,000)(12). Anytime elasticity is greater than one, an increase in prices will result in a drop in total revenue.

An individual is both an appraiser and a real estate broker. What are the individual’s USPAP obligations when preparing listing
Natalija [7]

Answer:

The Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) provides flexibility for professionals that have multiple roles like being a broker and an appraiser at the same time.

USPAP requires that appraisers must not misrepresent their roles if they also act as brokers or agents. That means that as long as appraisers are not doing something that misrepresents his/her appraiser role, then there is no limitation on performing other roles.

But if the appraiser is requested to sign a report as an appraiser, then USPAP rules apply and his/her appraiser role should be given priority.

true or false: self-employed taxpayers pay the employee portion of the fica tax burden through self-employment taxes, but they a
Contact [7]

self-employed taxpayers pay the employee portion of the fica tax burden through self-employment taxes, but they are exempt from paying the employer portion . This statement is false.

Tax payment for self employed?

The practice of working independently rather than for an employer is known as self-employment.If a person chooses to be recognized as a self-employed individual or is generating income for which a tax return must be filed, tax authorities will typically view them as such.The crucial question for tax authorities in the real world is not whether a person is engaged in a business activity—which is still referred to as "trading" when referring to the provision of a service—but rather whether the activity is profitable and, as a result, potentially subject to taxation.To put it another way, the tax authorities generally ignore occasional and hobby- or enthusiast-based economic activity because trading is likely to be ignored if there is no profit.People who work for themselves are typically referred to as sole proprietors (or sole traders), independent contractors, or partners.
