zimovet [89]

Answer:

The answer is: C) 2.5 and producers are very responsive to the price change.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of supply refers to what percentage does the quantity supplied change when the price of the good changes in 1%. It is calculated using the following formula:

price elasticity = % change in quantity supplied / % change in price

Price elasticity of supply of tablets = 20% / 8% = 2.5

For every 1% that the price increases, the quantity supplied will increase by 2.5%.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The results a-c are the same $3,039.79

However, the rate of return is given different names in each of the scenario.

In the first scenario, it was named annual interest which implies rate of return on an investment.

Annual interest is the same as discount rate because discounting an amount means stating in today's terms,which also applies to the amount to be invested when the future cash flow repayable is known, the amount to be invested can be brought back to equivalent amount today by discounting.

Finally, opportunity cost means the interest rate forgone by choosing to invest in one security,which is also the desirable rate of return convincing enough for the investment to be made.

A rate of return can be tagged annual interest, opportunity cost or discount rate,they are synonymous.

Explanation:

The $6000 is the future value, the unknown is present value.

PV=FV*(1+r)^-N

r is the rate of return of 12% while N is 6 years

PV=$6000*(1+12%)^-6

PV=$3,039.79

b.the requirement also is PV with FV of $6,000 with discount rate of 12%,that rate of return,with N being 6 years

PV=$6000*(1+12%)^-6

PV=$ 3,039.79

c,The most to be paid for $6,000 with an opportunity cost of $12% is given below;

PV=$6000*(1+12%)^-6

=$3,039.79

Which of the following is/are tactics used by interest groups to influence public opinion? Publicizing voting records of members

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Publicizing Voting Records and Publishing Research.

Explanation:

As they seek to influence the public opinion and not the government in this question, lobbying would be out as it is a tactic to influence congress members directly and not the public. Publishing voting records could be a valid tactic if said vote records were in favor of the group interest. Funding and publishing research is a valid tactic as well because it serves as a platform to get facts and data to the public, influencing its decision (in the scenario a research findings benefits the interest groups vision, obviously).
