Answer:
- Paul Donut Franchisee : Perfectly Elastic Supply
- P & G Facial Tissues : Elastic Supply
- Papermate Pens : Inelastic Supply
- Bright Ideas Lightbulbs : Perfectly Inelastic Supply
Explanation:
Price Elasticity of Supply is sellers' quantity supplied response to price change. P(Es) = % change in supply / % change in price.
Supply can be classified by Price Elasticity of Supply, as undermentioned :
- Elastic Supply : P(Es) > 1 ; % change in supply > % change in price
- Inelastic Supply : P(Es) < 1 ; % change in supply < % change in price
- Unitary Elastic : P (Es) = 1 ; % change in supply = % change in price
- Perfectly Elastic Supply : P(Es) = ∞ ; Supply responds infinitely to any slight price change & so prices are constant.
- Perfectly Elastic Supply : P (Es) = 0 ; Supply responds negligibly to massive price change & so quantity supplied is constant
- Paul Donut Franchise : Unlimited Supply at constant price, so supply perfectly elastic
- P & G facial tissues : % change in supply i.e 66% > % change in price i.e 10% , so supply is elastic
- Papermate pens : % change in supply i.e 10 % < % change in price i.e 15% , so supply is inelastic
- Bright Ideas Lightbulbs : % change in supply 15% negligible in relation to 400% price change , so supply is perfectly inelastic

Answer:
(A) Shawn has a comparative advantage in the production of donuts.
Explanation:
Shawn renounce to less goods than Sue when producing donuts.
This meas, Shawn has a comparative advantage in the production of donuts as their cost from the economic point of view are lower.
This do not imply that Sue cannot outproduce Shawn, it means it cost her more than Shawn
For example, if Sue produce 10 Donuts, but to produce donuts resing to produce 20 of other goods, each donut has an opportunity cost of 2
While Shawn can produce 8 donuts and resing to produce 8 of other goods:
each donut has an opportunity cost of 1
Therefore, is better for the overall economy to Shawn produce donuts and trade with Sue for the other good.
A. Bid/no bid decision
A "bid" is what contractors call their proposals, and in some cases it will not be worth it to even submit a proposal on a job. The stage where contractors decide if it is worth it is called bid/no-bid.
