Answer:

C. A decrease in the quantity demanded

Explanation:

Price Elasiticity

The law of demand and supply would usually hold that an increase in prices will result in a decrease in demand. Furthermore, an increase in demand generates a corresponding increasing in supply as well.

<u>When the demand of a product is sensitive to the changes in price, then we say that price of the product is elastic</u> but if the product demand not strongly influenced  by price then we say that the pricing is inelastic.

In the case of the lettuce, we can say that the price is elastic, because there is a sensitive reaction between an increase in price from $1 to $2 which immediately leads to a halfing of the quantity demanded. The price is elastic such that an increase in price leads to a decrease in quantity demanded.

                                                                                  ------------------
Ending Inventory                                                        $250,000
x Cost to Retail Ratio                                                           .58
                                                                                  ------------------

pentagon [3]

<u>Explanation</u>:

       i. Limited cash on hand to make changes

              It is apparent from the case that the company is experiencing a drop in the sales from the past 5 years and thus, the financial reserves will be a constraint in the accomplishment of the idea.

       ii. Costumers purchase lifestyle products from people who they know and who have expertise

It is the idea that the director of the company mark always encourages direct interaction with the clients and personal selling rather than retail or online sales considering personal relation makes exposure to the experts and their advice.

      iii. Meet with mark, your direct supervisor, about how to establish your credibility with the owner

Being a newbie to the company, it is a wise option to follow the instructions of the reporting authority to establish rapport with the owner of the organization.

      iv. Sales have declined because customers have lower disposable income

It is also evident from the case of the financial crisis and recession in going in the market due to which the customer has a lower income to make purchases.

which one of the following is not a withdrawal option for a mutual fund owner, who has a minimum nav of $5,000?
vichka [17]

None of the Above. A mutual fund owner typically has access to a variety of withdrawal options, including direct deposit, check, and wire transfer.

However, the minimum NAV (net asset value) of the mutual fund must be considered when choosing a withdrawal option. If the minimum NAV of the mutual fund is $5,000, then none of the above options would be available.

Net asset value, or "NAV," of an investment company is the company's total assets minus its total liabilities. For example, if an investment company has securities and other assets worth $100 million and has liabilities of $10 million, the investment company's NAV will be $90 million.
