Answer:

2.5

Explanation:

P1=$200

P2=$300

S1=100000

S2=300000

The percentage change in price is:

\Delta P =\frac{300-200}{\frac{200+300}{2}}=0.4=40\%

The percentage change in supply is:

\Delta S =\frac{300000-100000}{\frac{100000+300000}{2}}=1=100\%

The price elasticity of supply is given by:

E=\frac{\Delta S}{\Delta P}=\frac{100\%}{40\%}=2.5

The price elasticity of supply is 2.5.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

An employee has an average wage of $60,000 and has worked for the firm for 28 years. The defined benefit pension plan pays retirees 2.3% of the average wage times the years of service. The employee can expect to receive __$1,380_____ per year upon retirement.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Average wage = $60,000

Number of years worked in the firm = 28 years

Defined benefit pension plan rate = 2.3%

Annual defined benefit pension plan = $1,380 ($60,000 * 2.3%)

Total benefit to be received = $38,640 ($1,380*28) or ($60,000 *28 * 2.3%).

b) This employee is expected to receive the total benefit of $38,640 for serving the firm for 28 long years under the defined pension plan, given the plan rate of 2.3% of the average wage.
