The cross price elasticity of demand measure how sensitive is the demand of the product X is due to the change in the price of the product Y.

Answer:

the price of a similar substitute or complementary product.

Explanation:

In microeconomics, the cross price elasticity of demand measures how the change in the price of a certain product will affect the quantity demanded for a similar substitute or complementary product whose price doesn't change.

In order to measure the cross price elasticity of demand there must exist a previous relationship between the prices and quantities demanded of the products or services. E.g. a change in the price of movie tickets does not affect the quantity demanded of gasoline, since there is no relationship between them.

You can measure cross price elasticity of substitute products, e.g. coffee and tea, or complementary products, e.g. coffee and sugar. Actually the cross price elasticity is useful for determining how closely related complementary or substitute products are.

the formula for cross price elasticity = % change in quantity demanded of product Y / % change in price of product X.

A negative cross price elasticity means that the products are complementary, while a positive cross price elasticity means that the products are substitutes.

stepladder [879]

Answer:

a) Limited liability company

Explanation:

Considering the options given, as an advisor the form of business that I would recommend is: limited liability company that is a structure in which the owners are not responsible with their personal assets for the company's debts as the three owners are concerned about this risk.

I would not advise the other forms of business because the sole proprietorship is a firm that is run by one person, the general partnership is a structure in which two or more people agree to share unlimited liability which means that they share all their personal assets and are responsible for any debt the company has with them and the master limited partnership is a company that trades securities in the market.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Wait until he enters an area with an available wired network.

Explanation:

It is common that while driving on the road there might be some areas where internet connection can be lost because the antennas of the service provider our mobile lines work with are not nearby. Then, just like in Jojo's case, we should wait to enter into an area where there is enough signal so we can use our mobile internet as usual.

Computer Consultants Inc. is considering a project that has the following cash flow and cost of capital (r) data. What is the pr

Korolek [52]

Answer:

e. 14.20%

Explanation:

We use the formula:

A=P(1+r/100)^n

where

A=future value

P=present value

r=rate of interest

n=time period.

Hence

A=$450(1.1)^2+$450(1.1)^1+$450

=$450[(1.1)^2+(1.1)+1]

=$1489.50

Hence

MIRR=[Future value of inflows/Present value of outflows]^(1/time period)-1

=[1489.5/1000]^(1/3)-1

=14.20%(Approx)

Avia Company sells a product for $150 per unit. Variable costs are $70 per unit, and fixed costs are $1200 per month. The compan

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

$80 per unit

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Per unit selling cost of the product = $150

Per unit variable cost of the product = $70

Total fixed cost per month = $1200

Now,

The unit contribution margin is calculated as:

unit contribution margin = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Thus,

unit contribution margin = $150 - $70

unit contribution margin = $80 per unit

Hence,

The correct answer is option $80 per unit
