Answer: Inelastic
Explanation:
Price elasticity could be defined as when the desire for a product changes as it's price changes. When people's desires changes or they are no longer interested as the price for the commodity goes up. Inelastic demand is defined as when the buyers demand does not change or is not influenced as the price of the commodity goes up, rather the demand decreases than increasing. The price rise will increase city revenues if the elasticity of demand for electricity and natural gas is elastic.
Answer:
Cost of Equity = 11.30%
Explanation:
Computation Cost for Equity
Using Gordon Model
Market Price = [Dividend × (1 + Growth Rate )] / (Cost of Equity - Growth Rate)
41.08 = [$3.01 × (1 + 0.037)] / (Cost of Equity - 0.037)
41.08 = [$3.01 × (1.037)] / (Cost of Equity - 0.037)
Cost of Equity - 0.037 = $3.12 / 41.08
Cost of Equity - 0.037 = $0.076
Cost of Equity = 0.076 + 0.037
Cost of Equity = 0.1130
Cost of Equity = 11.30%
Answer:
The correct answer is option c.
Explanation:
The nominal interest rate was 5 percent.
The CPI was 150.3 at the end of the year, and the CPI was 144.2 at the beginning of the year.
The 5% nominal interest rate means that the dollar value of savings increased at 5%.
Inflation rate
= 
= 0.0423 or 4.2%
The real interest rate
= Nominal interest rate - rate of inflation
= 5 - 4.2
= 0.8%
The real interest rate of 0.8% indicates that the purchasing power of savings increased at 0.8%.
