Answer:

C) $2

Explanation:

Q = 2000 - 500P => \frac{dQ}{dP} = -500

The price elasticity of demand is is defined to be the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price. The formula is:

Elasticity = \frac{P}{Q}\frac{dQ}{dP} = \frac{P}{2000-500P} \times (-500)

Unitary elasticity (change in price leads to equal change in quantity demanded) means absolute value of elasticity = 1 => elasticity = -1

=> \frac{P}{2000-500P}  = \frac{1}{500}

=> 500P = 2000 - 500P

=> P = 2

Hilda and Hyatt paid $7,875 last year in mortgage interest, $4,200 in principal payments, $1,850 in property tax, $840 in mortga
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Mortgage interest of $7,875 and property taxes of $1,850.

Explanation:

A tax deduction can be defined as the total amount of money that one can deduct to lower their tax liability. More tax deductions always implies a reduced tax liability. In dealing with mortgage payments, tax deductions should be considered carefully to determine how much one tax one needs to pay. The following mortgage expenses are considered for deductions;

1. Mortgage interest

A mortgage interest deduction is a deduction that allows homeowners to subtract the interest on the loan they used to pay for the purchase, improvements or building of a home. In our case, Hilda and Hyatt are liable to a deduction of $7,875.

2. Property tax

In general, state and local property taxes are eligible to be deducted from the federal income taxes of a property owner. The only taxes that are deductible are state, local and foreign taxes levied for public welfare. They do not include services like home renovation and trash collection. The federal tax as of 2018 for property tax was capped at a total of $10,000. This means that any property tax value below $10,000 was eligible to a property tax deduction of that amount.

melomori [17]

Answer:

it will purchase

96 dollars of Arabian Mocha

and 48 dollars of Colombian Decaf

Explanation:

we build the equation system:

144 = x  + y \\ x = 2y

we replace the second expression on the first and solve for y

144 = (2y) + y

144 = 2y + 1y

144= 3y

144/3 = y

48 = y

now we solve for x

x= 2y

x= 2 times 48 = 96

Gabriel, Harris and Ida are members of Jeweled Watches, LLC. What are their options with respect to the management of their firm
scoray [572]

Answer:

They could be a Member-managed Limited Liability Company or a Manager-managed Limited Liability Company.

Explanation:

A Limited Liability Company is usually run by two or more partners. In managing this type of company, the members might choose to manage the company themselves. This is known as a member-managed Limited Liability Company. In such cases, if any member makes a decision in behalf of the business, with his signature appended to it, such a decision is considered legally binding on all other members of the company. Every member also has a say in the company's decision-making.

If they choose to be a manager-managed Limited Liability Company, they can appoint one or more non-members to manage the company for them. They do not interfere with how the manager chooses to run the company. They can still make important decisions but this is quite limited. However, they can choose to remove the manager/managers as they will.
