Answer:

The correct answer is option b.

Explanation:

The law of supply states that other things being constant, the price of the product and its supply are positively related. This means that an increase in price will cause the quantity supplied to increase and vice versa.  

In a perfectly competitive market, the firms are price takers. So a decrease in the price of the product will cause its quantity supplied to decline. Or in other words, when the price falls, the firms will reduce output.

Blanchard Company manufactures a single product that sells for $180 per unit and whose total variable costs are $135 per unit. T
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

1.$35,000

2.$6,300,000

Explanation:

The computation of Unit sales to earn the target income and Sales amount at required profit is given below:-

a. Contribution per unit = Unit sale price - Unit variable cost

= $180 - $135

= $45

Unit sales at required profit = (Sales cost + Required cost) ÷ Contribution per unit

= ($562,500 + $1,012,500) ÷ $45

= $1,575,000 ÷ $45

= $35,000

b. Sales amount at required profit = Unit sales at required profit × Unit sale price

= $35,000 × $180

= $6,300,000

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

  • Paul Donut Franchisee : Perfectly Elastic Supply
  • P & G Facial Tissues : Elastic Supply
  • Papermate Pens : Inelastic Supply
  • Bright Ideas Lightbulbs : Perfectly Inelastic Supply

Explanation:

Price Elasticity of Supply is sellers' quantity supplied response to price change. P(Es) = % change in supply / % change in price.

Supply can be classified by Price Elasticity of Supply, as undermentioned :

  1. Elastic Supply : P(Es) > 1 ; % change in supply > % change in price
  2. Inelastic Supply :  P(Es) < 1 ; % change in supply < % change in price
  3. Unitary Elastic : P (Es) = 1 ; % change in supply = % change in price
  4. Perfectly Elastic Supply : P(Es) = ∞ ; Supply responds infinitely to any slight price change & so prices are constant.
  5. Perfectly Elastic Supply : P (Es) = 0 ; Supply responds negligibly to massive price change & so quantity supplied is constant
  • Paul Donut Franchise : Unlimited Supply at constant price, so supply perfectly elastic
  • P & G facial tissues : % change in supply i.e 66% > % change in price i.e 10% , so supply is elastic
  • Papermate pens : % change in supply i.e 10 % < % change in price i.e 15% , so supply is inelastic
  • Bright Ideas Lightbulbs : % change in supply 15% negligible in relation to 400% price change , so supply is perfectly inelastic

If the marginal propensity to consume is 0.80, what is the total implied increase in economic spending activity from a governmen
Rzqust [24]

\$500 is the total implied increase in economic spending activity from a government stimulus of \$100 billion

<u>Explanation: </u>

The median product preference tests the increase in expenditure due to changes in availability.

In increasing government expenditure, total economic investment would be increased by the scale of the budget multiplier. In other terms, the expenditure equation indicates how much GDP can increase as government expenditure increases.

The spending multiplier can be expressed as \frac{1}{1-M P C} \text { or } \frac{1}{M P S}

\text { Increase in GDP }=\frac{1}{1-M P C} \times \Delta G=\frac{1}{1-0.8} \times 100=\$ 500

So, the total implied increase in economic spending is \$ 500

In economics, marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is the proportion of an aggregate raise in pay that consumer spends on the consumption of services and goods, as opposed to saving it.
