Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

Explanation:

The price elasticity of demand shows the responsiveness of quantity demanded to change in price. It is measured by the ratio of proportionate change in quantity demanded and proportionate change in price.

Unit price elastic means that the price elasticity of the good is 1. This implies that the percentage change in quantity demanded must be equal to the percentage change in price.

Rottino Company purchased a new machine on October 1, 2020, at a cost of $150,000. The company estimated that the machine will h
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Purchasing cost= $150,000.

The company estimated that the machine will have a salvage value of $12,000. The machine is expected to be used for 10,000 working hours during its 5-year life.

1) Straight-line:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (150,000 - 12,000)/5= 27,600

<u>2020:</u>

Annual depreciation= (27,600/365)*92 days= $6,956.71

2) Units of activity:

Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in units]*units produced

Annual depreciation= [(150,000 - 12,000)/10,000]*1.700= $23,460

3) Double-declining balance:

Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]

Annual depreciation= 2*27,600= 55,200

<u>2020:</u>

Annual depreciation= 55,200/365*92= 13,913.42

<u>2021:</u>

Annual depreciation= [138,000 - 13,913.42)/5]*2= 49,634.63

sergejj [24]
Amount = Principal ( 1 + interest rate) ^ years

$1000 = $600 ( 1 + .07 ) ^ years

$1000 / $600 = 1.07 ^ years

1.66667 = 1.07 ^ years

To conduct an experiment, a movie theater increased movie ticket prices from $9 to $10 and measured the change in ticket sales.
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

RELATIVELY INELASTIC

more elastic

less

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price  

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.  

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded

If demand is relatively inelastic and price increases, there would be little or no change in the quantity demanded and as a result, total revenue would increase

If demand were elastic and prices were increased, quantity demanded would fall more than the increase in price. As a result, total revenue would fall

In the long run, people have more time to search for suitable alternatives. Thus, demand tends to be more elastic in the long run

If the long run, price is increased, the total quantity demanded would fall and revenue would fall

A machine can be purchased for $202,000 and used for five years, yielding the following net incomes. In projecting net incomes,
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

2.36 years

Explanation:

Payback calculates the amount of time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from it cumulative cash flows.

To derive cash flows from net income, depreciation expenses should be added to net income.

Depreciation expense using the double declining method = Depreciation factor x cost of the asset

Depreciation factor = 2 x (1/useful life) = 2 / 5 = 0.4

Deprecation expense in year 1 = 0.4 x $202,000 = $80,800

Book value in year 2 = $202,000 - $80,800 = $121,200

Deprecation expense in year 2 = 0.4 x $121,200 = $48,480

Book value in year 3 = $121,200 - $48,480 = $72,720

Deprecation expense in year 3 = 0.4 x $72,720 = $29,088

Book value in year 4 = $72,720 - $29,088 = $43,632

Deprecation expense in year 4 = $43,632 x 0.4 = $17,452.80

Book value in year 5 = $43,632 x 0.4 - $17,452.80 = $26,179.20

Deprecation expense in year 5 = $26,179.20 x 0.4 = $10,471.68

Cash flow in year 1 = $18,000 +  $80,800 = $98,800

Cash flow in year 2 = $25,000 + $48,480 = $73,480

Cash flow in year 3 = $53,000  + $29,088 = $82,088

Cash flow in year 4 = $58,000  + $17,452.80 = $75,452.80

Cash flow in year 5 = $108,000 + $10,471.68 = $118,471.68

Please check the attached image for how the payback period was calculated
