Answer:

d. Need more information.

Explanation:

Demand elasticity is a microeconomic concept that aims to measure the sensitivity of demand in the face of price changes.

When calculated, elasticity reaches values that signal consumers' response to price. If elasticity is a value between 0 and 1, then demand is inelastic - little sensitive to price changes. If demand is greater than 1, this means elastic - very sensitive to price changes.

The numbers presented by the question show a highly elastic demand for theater ticket prices in both cases, especially in the afternoon shift. Thus, the theater could lower the price of both, because in elastic demands, a negative variation in price will increase the demand. However, this is not enough to calculate profit maximization since the profit calculation formula also involves costs, which are not described in the question.

1. Calculation to determine How much would the company's profits increase (decrease) if it implemented the advertising campaign in the MEDICAL MARKET

First is to calculate the sales

Sales = (400 000 + 70 000)

Sales = $470 000

Second step is to calculate the profit

Variable cost =$470 000 *65%

Variable cost=$305 500

Contribution =$470 000*35%

Contribution =$164,500

Fixed Expense= $28 000

Profit = $ 136,500

Now let calculate the Difference made by advertisement

Difference = 136500 - 120000

Difference=16500

2. Calculation to determine How much would the company's profits increase (decrease) if it implemented the advertising campaign in the

DENTAL MARKET

vcr Of The Dental market = 50%

Variable cost =50% $260 000

Variable cost = $130 000

Contribution = $130 000

Fixed expenses = $60 000

Profit = $70000

Now let determine difference made by the advertisement

Difference =(70000) - 48000

Difference= 22000

3. Based On the above calculation the markets I would recommend that the company focus its advertising campaign is medical market

kvasek [131]

Answer:

Limit order.

Explanation:

A limit order is an order executed in part or in full when a price level previously defined by it has been reached. In case of a partial execution, the order remains active until executed in full within its validity period or until cancelled.

Limit order in the L2 module :

- executed only at the specified price and only with Deltastock as a liquidity provider ;

- when another liquidity provider is used, the order is executed as a market order when the requested price is met and with the provider first to quote that price.

- in case of a partial execution of a limit order in the L2 module, the remaining amount constitutes a new limit order, valid until executed or cancelled.
