Answer:

1

Explanation:

Since we need to determine the price elasticity of demand (PED) for a given range, not a specific price, we must use the midpoint method:

PED = {(Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2]} / {(P2 - P1) / [(P2 + P1) / 2]}

= {(25 - 20) / [(25 + 20) / 2]} / {(4 - 5) / [(4 + 5) / 2]}

= (5 / 22.5) / (-1 / 4.5) = 0.2222 / -0.2222 = -1 ≈ 1 (when we calculate PED we use absolute values)

Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is -5

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand against the change in price of the product. It shows how much demand changes if there is the change in price.

Using mid point method

Change in Demand = $20 - $25

Change in Demand = -$5

Change in price  = $5 - $4

Change in price  = $1

As we know

Elasticity of Demand = Change in demand / Change in price

Elasticity of Demand = -$5 / $1

Elasticity of Demand = -5

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The NPV = $1578.185602 rounded off to $1578.19

As the NPV is positive, the project should be accepted.

Explanation:

The Net Present Value or NPV is a tool used to evaluate projects. It is used with various other tools to decide whether to undertake a project or not. To calculate the Net Present Value or NPV, we take the present value of the cash inflows provided by the project and deduct the initial cost of the project.  If the NPV is positive, we should proceed with the project and vice versa.

NPV = CF1 / (1+r)  +  CF2 / (1+r)^2  +  ...  + CFn / (1+r)^n  -  Initial Cost

Where,

  • CF1, CF2, ... represents cash flow in Year 1, Year 2 and so on.
  • r is the required rate of return

NPV = 3200 / (1+0.17)  +  3200 (1+0.17)^2  +  3200 (1+0.17)^3  +  

3200 (1+0.17)^4  +  5700 (1+0.17)^5  -  9800

NPV = $1578.185602 rounded off to $1578.19

GuDViN [60]

Answer:contact the psychiatrist for initiation of commitment proceedings.

Explanation:

This proceeding may legally order a person to receive psychiatric treatment at the hospital because the person is seen to may be danger to themselves and suspected that they may commit harm against their own body.

Some people may refuse treatment because they don't feel like they need the treatment and believe there is nothing wrong with them hence an initiation of commitment proceeding may be crucial to give them the help that they actually need.

A person who says they wish to end it all may end up taking their own lives if they are not admitted to a psychitric treatment.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: C. 0.3

Explanation: The Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) usually expressed as percentage of total daily intake of energy is defined as the range of intakes for a particular energy source (protein, fat, carbohydrate etc) that is associated with reduced risk of chronic disease while providing adequate intakes of essential nutrients required by the body. For proteins this is within the range of 10 to 35%, expressed as fraction, 0.1 to 0.35. Option C falls within this range and therefore is the correct answer.

Vaselesa [24]

TIPS are the form of bonds which are specially designed for the purpose to protect the investors against the inflation.

The principal value of the bond in case of TIPS is adjusted for yearly inflation.

Based on the above discussion the value of TIPS bond can be calculated using the below formula:

Value of bond at maturity=Principal amount (1+inflation rate)^5

                                         =1,000(1+2%)^5

                                         =1,104

 So the answer is C $1,104
