Answer:
The option (b) 2.4 is correct.
Explanation:
We can find price elasticity of demand by using the formula shown in the attachment attached with.
Since we know the quantities of product associated with the market price of the product, by putting values in the equation we have:
Price elasticity of Demand =
= [(6000 - 4000) / (6000 + 4000)/2] / [(13 - 11) / (13+11)/2]
Price elasticity of Demand = 2.4
So this is how we can find the price elasticity of supply which says that the producers will respond to prices drop by producing lower quantity of product.
Answer:
3.8 times
Explanation:
Inventory turnover indicates how many times a company sells and replaces its stock of goods during a particular period. The formula for inventory turnover ratio is the cost of goods sold divided by the average inventory for the same period.
$ 320,000 / 63,000 = 5.1 times in 2022
$283,500 / 32,000 = 8.9 times in 2023
Therefore inventory turnover increase as a result of the switch to the JIT system by 8.9 times - 5.1 times = 3.8 times
Answer:
The athlete with equal installments got the better deal.
Explanation:
Two athletes each sign 10-year contracts for $80 million.
In one case, we’re told that the $80 million will be paid in 10 equal installments.
In the other case, the $80 million will be paid in 10 installments, but the installments will increase by 5 percent per year.
The one with equal installments will get $8 million every year.
But the one with increasing installments will get smaller payments initially as his payments were to be increased by 5% each year.
Though the total value of both the annuities will remain the same.
Answer:
satisficing
Explanation:
Satisficing is a combination of "satisfy" and "suffice" (or enough). It refers to a situation where instead of trying to reach a completely satisfying solution, you just settle for a relatively good or a so-so solution.
Personally I believe it is something that borders mediocrity, since you should either do something right or do not do it at all. It is like doing something that might work, but not completely.
The number of parts used for the wheels is,
(300,000 wheels) x (2 parts/wheel) = 600,000
For the seats,
(600,000 seats) x (3 parts/seat) = 1,800,00
From the calculation above, the ratio of wheels to total number of parts is 0.25 which means that the overhead allocated for the wheels should be equal to $165,000. The rest of the money should be for Sam, totaling to $495,000.
