Answer:
The correct answer is letter "D": the quantity demanded of cereal will increase.
Explanation:
According to the demand theory, as long as the quantity demanded increases, the price would decrease (the demand curve shifts to the right). The quantity demanded decreases when the price would increase (the demand curve shifts to the left).
In the example, as eggs and cereals are substitute products, if a disease kills a large number of chickens there will be fewer eggs supply in the market. Consumers will start looking for substitutes. Then, <em>the quantity demanded for cereal will increase</em> moving the <em>demand </em><u><em>curve</em></u><em> to the right</em>.
The future amount of an investment with compound interest can be calculated through the equation,
F = P x (1 + ieff)^n
where F is the future amount, P is the current value of the money, ieff is the effective interest (rate per year), and n is the number of years.
From the equation, all are given except for the effective interest, i. Now, substituting the known values,
14,398.87 = (7,775) x (1 + ieff)^14
The value of ieff from the equation is 0.044999.
Since the value of the ieff when translated to percentage is equal to 4.5% as well, the interest rate is compounded yearly.
Answer: B) demand determined.
Explanation:
If the supply of a good is fixed or the product is of a unique kind, the price of the good will be determined by the amount of demand for it.
Normally supply can change based on the quantity demanded which will impact prices but if the supply is definite, this means that the supply curve is inelastic and the only curve that can affect price therefore is the demand curve.
If more people demand the good, it will increase in price and if less people demand it, it will fall in price.
Answer:
Donuts= 28,571
Explanation:
<u>First, we need to determine the sale proportion of each product:</u>
Other items= 2/5= 0.4
Coffe= 2/5= 0.4
Donut= 1/5= 0.2
<u>Now, we can calculate the break-even point in units for the company as a whole:</u>
Break-even point (units)= Total fixed costs / Weighted average contribution margin
Break-even point (units)= 100,000 / (0.5*0.2 + 0.5*0.4 + 1*0.4)
Break-even point (units)= 100,000 / 0.7
Break-even point (units)= 142,857 units
<u>Now, the number of donuts:</u>
<u />
Donuts= 0.2*142,857
Donuts= 28,571
