Answer:

Price Elasticity of Supply = 2.40

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of Supply is buyers' responsive change in quantity supplied due to change in Price.

P Es Formula = % change in quantity supplied / % change in price.

Given : % change in supply = 53 ; % change in price = 23

So, P Es = 53 / 23 = 2.40  

% change in supply > % change in price & supply is > 1 . So, Supply is Elastic.

Lisa [10]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation.

Explanation:

Monopoly.

The 2 reasons why the monopoly’s marginal revenue will always be less than its price are;

a) Even though Monopolies have very large influence on the prices of goods and services they offer, for a Monopoly to sell more goods, they generally have to lower their prices. This will lead to a situation where Marginal Revenue, which is the additional revenue made per additional unit sold will be less than Price because additional revenue for a new unit will be less than the last one because prices are dropped .

b) A Monopoly's demand schedule is downward sloping. This means that demand rises as prices drop. As prices drop therefore, more goods will be sold but the marginal revenue will be less because prices had to be dropped to get an additional unit to be sold. That unit therefore will bring in less revenue than the last unit.

Perfectly Competitive Market

In such a market, the seller is a Price Taker. This means that sellers in this market do not sell at a price that they want but rather at a price the market has established to be the Equilibrium. This is because of the high competition in the market. Since they are all selling at the same price, this means that every additional revenue they get is the same as the price the market charges. This means that Price equals Marginal Revenue in this market.

Assume that the market for Good X is defined as follows: QD = 64 - 16P and QS = 16P - 8. If the government imposes a price floor
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The total loss in welfare to the economy will be -$32.

Explanation:

By intersecting the supply function QS to the demand function QD, we will find the equilibrium price:

QD = QS

16P - 8 = 64 - 16P

16P + 16P = 64 +8 =

32P = 72

P = $2.00

Replacing the equilibrium price either in QS or QD, we foind the equilibrium quantity:

QS = 64 - 16*2  = 64 -32

QS =  32

In this case the total revenues at the equilibrium price RE will be:

RE = 32 * $2 = $64

On the other hand if the government imposes a price floor at $3.00, then the new total revenues RN will be:

RN = 32 * $3 = $96

Therefore the total losses is find by subtracting the revenue at the goverment price floor RN to the revenue at the equilibrium price RE:

LT = RE - RN

LT = $64 - $96 = -$32

Pendant Publishing is considering a new product line that has expected sales of $1,100,000 per year for each of the next 5 years
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The operating cash flow of year 1 for the company is $368,500

Explanation:

In order to calculate the operating cash flow of year 1 for the company first we need to calculate the Cashflow before tax and depreciation as follows:

Cashflow before tax=Sales-Variable cost-fixed cost

Cashflow before tax=$1,100,000-$450,000-$180,000      

Cashflow before tax=$470,000

 

Depreciation = Original cost - Salvage / fixed Cost

Depreciation= $1,200,000 - $300,000 / 5

= $180,000

Therefore, to calculate the operating cash flow of year 1 for the company we would have to make the following calculation:

Operating Cash Flow=(CFBT×65%)+Depreciation×35%

Operating Cash Flow=($470,000×65%)+($180,000×35%)

Operating Cash Flow=$368,500

The operating cash flow of year 1 for the company is $368,500
