Answer:
0.079
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand using midpoint formula can be calculated as follows
Formula
Elasticity of demand = (change in quantity/average quantity)/(change in price/average price)
Calculation
Elasticity of demand = (600/10,900)/(-2.1/3.05)
Elasticity of demand =-0.055 / -0.688
Elasticity of demand =-0.079
working
Change in price (2-4.1) = -2.1
Average price (2+4.1)/2=3.05
Change in quantity (11,200-10600) = 600
average quantity (11,200+10,600)/2 = 10,900
The elasticity of demand is inelastic as the elasticity is below 1.
Answer:
$6896551.7
Explanation:
Given the following :
Product R:
Selling price = $20
Variable cost = $6
Product S:
Selling price = $50
Variable cost = $30
Firm's fixed cost = $4, 000,000
Break-even point dollars = (Fixed cost /Contribution margin ratio)
Contribution margin : selling price - variable cost
Product R: $(20 - 6) = $14
Contribution margin ratio = ($14/$20) * 60% = 0.42
Product S: $(50 - 30) = $20
Contribution margin ratio = ($20/$50) * 40% = 0.16
Sum of contribution margin ratio for both products = (0.42 + 0.16) = 0.58
Break-even point dollars = (Fixed cost /sum of Contribution margin ratio)
= $4,000,000/0.58
= $6896551.7
Answer:
Option (C) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Estimated overhead cost = $1,540,000
Estimated direct labors (in dollars) = $3,360,000
Estimated direct labor hours = 240,000
Actual overhead cost = $1,240,000
Predetermined overhead rate:
= Estimated overhead cost ÷ Estimated direct labor hours
= $1,540,000 ÷ 240,000
= $6.42 per direct labor hour
Answer: (D) More will be able to pay for that product
