The answer is : The demand is elastic.
Elasticity =
[(80,000 - 180,000)/((80,000+180,000)/2)]/[($40 - $30)/(($40 + $30)/2)]|
[(-100,000/130,000)]/[(10/55)] = -.7692/.1818= -4.23
The answer is -4.23, however when considering own price elasticity of demand, we ignore the negative sign and look at the absolute value to determine whether it is elastic or inelastic.
higher prices and higher outputs
Answer:
9.68 percent
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the firm's cost of equity
Using this formula
Cost of equity=[(Annual dividend×Increase in dividends×/Current price of common stock]+Dividends
Let plug in the formula
Cost of equity=[($1.22 × 1.024)/$17.15] + 0.024
Cost of equity=($1.24928/$17.15)+0.024
Cost of equity=0.0728+0.024
Cost of equity=0.0968*100
Cost of equity=9.68 percent
Therefore the firm's cost of equity is 9.68 percent
