Answer:

He will sell 600 pizzas per week if he cuts the price by 10%.

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand to change in the price of a product. It calculates the ratio of change in demand and change in price.

Price elasticity of demand = % change in demand / % change in price

-2 = % change in demand / 10%

% Change in in demand = -2 x 10%

% Change in in demand = -20%

Following the law of demand as price decreases the demand of the product increases. So the sale of Pizzas will be increased by 20%.

Current Sale of Pizzas = 500 pizzas

Increase in sales  = 500 x 20% = 100 pizzas

Increased sale = 500 + 100 = 600 pizzas

Particulars                             Monty Corp.    Whispering Winds Corp.

Sales revenue                         $90,000                $111,000

Sales return and allowance   <u>$6,000</u><u>  </u>                 <u>$5,000</u>

Net sales                                 $84,000                 $106,000

Cost of goods sold                 <u>$53,760 </u>                <u>$65,720</u><u>   </u>

Gross profit                             $30,240                 $40,280

Operating expenses               <u>$15,120 </u>                 <u>$19,080 </u>

In conclusion, the formulae used to derived the bolded answers are:

  • Sales revenue - Net sales = Sales returns and allowance
  • Net sales - Cost of goods sold = Gross profit
  • Gross profit - Operating expenses = Net income
  • Net sales + Sales return and allowance = Sales revenue
  • Net sales - Gross profit = Cost of goods sold
  • Gross profit - Net income = Operating expenses

slavikrds [6]

Labour Productivity is basically the worth of goods produced by each labour or collectively in an hour, This can be expressed in the formula below:

Labour Productivity per hour of work=\frac{Worth of Goods Produced}{Total Number of Labour Hours}

In order to find worth of goods we shall use below Formula:

Worth of Goods= Sale Price per Unit*Number of Units Sold

In given case there are 2 types of goods sold as below

1. Proper Garments

Worth of Goods Sold= $210*78 Garments

Worth of Goods Sold=$16380

2. Seconds

Worth of Goods Sold= $100*54

Worth of Goods Sold= $5400

Total Goods Sold= $5400+$16380

Total Worth of Goods=$21780

Total Hours Worked= No of Workers*Hours Worked each Worker

Total Hours Worked= 8*45

Total Hours Worked=360 Hours

Labour Productivity=\\ \frac{21780}{360}

Labour Productivity=$60.5 per Hour

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

A- 12

B- 1.09

C- 52.15%

Explanation:

A. The job finding rate (f) is the fraction of unemployed individuals who find a job each month. (f) is thus the inverse of the average spell of unemployment. Spell of unemployment was 1/12. Knowing that 1/12 is 0.083, then inverse it. 0.083^-1 = 12.

B. Separation Rate would be 11/12 or 0.917. Take the inverse of that 0.917^-1 = 1.09

C. natural rate of unemployment = rate of job separation / (rate of job separation + rate of job finding) = 1.09/1+ 1.09 = 52.15%. this shows that natural and unemployment is 52.15%.
