Answer: Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Correct option : The price elasticity of demand for Gain laundry detergent is likely to be greater than the price elasticity of demand for laundry detergent in general.

People are definitely using laundry detergent for doing laundry but when we are talking about a particular detergent, then are many substitutes available to do the laundry. Hence, the price elasticity of demand for the Gain laundry detergent is generally higher than for the laundry detergent in general.

Therefore, correct option is part (b).

madam [21]

Answer:

B) People face trade-offs

Explanation:

A trade-off happens when you have to balance two (or three in this case) opposing situations. In economics all resources are scarce, and time is the only resource that everyone shares equally. Bob is facing opportunity costs, i.e. if he chooses to train one activity he cannot train the other.

Bob has to decide how to divide the time he can spend training. If he chooses running, he can´t swim or ride a bike. So he has to balance the time spent on each activity, probably depending on which sport he needs to train the most.

disa [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

Date     Unit    Unit cost    Total       Goods sold     Cost   Total

May 1    28         9                252              28                9       252

May 15  26        10               260              26                10      260

May 24 39         11                 429             26               11        286

Total      93                             941              80

1) Weighted average unit cost = 941/93 = $10.118

FIFO method

2)Ending inventory  (93-80)*11 =$ 143

FIFO method assumes that the first set of inventory are the first to be sold

LIFO method

LIFO assumes that the last set of inventory are the first to be sold

    Goods Sold       Cost     Total

            39                  11       429

            26                  10      260

             15                  9         135

Ending Inventory = (93-80)*9 = $117

Average Cost Method

Ending Inventory = 13 * 10.118 =$131.534
