It is number D because if there’s an increase in supply but not change in demand then the equilibrium price will rise and the quantity will increase
Answer:
Net income = $169.2
Growth in dividend = 76.25%
Explanation:
The projected figures are as below:
Sales = $700 x (1 + 15%) = $805 <em>(15% increase in sales)</em>
Operating costs including depreciation = $805 x 60% = $483 <em>(60% of sales)</em>
Interest expense = 40 <em>(remain constant)</em>
EBIT = Sales - Operating costs including depreciation = $805 - $483 = $322
EBT = EBIT - Interest expense = $322 - $40 = $282
Net income = EBT x (1 - Tax rate) = $282 x (1 - 40$) = $169.2
Dividend = Net income x Dividend payout ratio = $169.2 x (32/96) = $56.4
Growth in dividend = $56.4/$32 = 76.25%

Answer:
Option A
Make the logistics function more complicated
Explanation:
The JIT inventory system refers to the Just In Time inventory system.
The just-in-time (JIT) inventory system is a management strategy where warehousing of parts is minimum. Rather, the raw material supply is aligned accurately with the production schedule of a particular good.
For example, in car production, the various car parts are supplied by various manufacturers at just the right time so they can be assembled to make up the car in the assembly line. The car assembly companies may not necessarily have to store raw materials in their ware house since the raw materials arrive "Just in time".
However, aligning the supply of raw materials accurately with production time, is a complicated task especially when a lot of manufacturers are involved and can need to plant down time if care is not taken. This makes the logistics function more complicated.
Answer: -0.5
Explanation:
From the information given,
Demand curve = P = 600 – Q
Supply curve = P = 0.5Q
Equilibrium = Qd = Qs
Therefore, 600 - Q = 0.5Q
600 = Q + 0.5Q
600 = 1.5Q
Q = 600/1.5
Q = 400
Since P = 600 - Q
P = 600 - 400
P = 200
Price elasticity will be:
= (dQ/dP) × (P/Q)
=(-1) × (200/400).
= -1 × 0.5
= -0.5
The price elasticity is -0.5
