Answer:

Marginal Cost = $30

Explanation:

Given that

Price = $60

Elasticity of demand = -2

Recall that

MC = P(1 + 1/Ed)

From monopolist pricing rule as a function of elasticity of demand.

Where MC = marginal cost

Ed = elasticity of demand = -2

Thus

MC = 60 (1 + 1/-2)

= 60 (1 + [-0.5])

= 60 ( 1 - 0.5)

= 60 (0.5)

= 30

MC = $30

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer: $7185

Explanation: Shareholders equity refers to the amount of funds that are collected by the company by selling their ownership rights in the market to the general investors.

As per the subject matter of accounts, every asset that is owned by an organisation is either financed by the available funds or some liability is taken to buy it. This could be illustrated as follows :-

assets =  shareholders equity + liabilities

Putting the values into equation we get :-

$2280 + $ 10,400 = $1,405 + $4090 + shareholders equity

therefore :-

shareholders equity = $7185

Suppose that in 1984 the total output in a single-good economy was 10,000 buckets of chicken. Also assume that in 1984 each buck
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

A= 62.5; B=60%; C = $160,000 and $352,000

Explanation:

A.

in 1984 each bucket of chicken was priced at $10 (nominal GDP)

in 2005 the price per bucket of chicken was $16 (real GDP)

GDP price index = nominal GDP divided by the real GDP × 100

=($10/$16)× 100

= 62.5

B.

In 1984, Price of each bucket = $10

In 2005, Price of each bucket = $16

Percentage difference = price In 2005 - price in 1984/price in 1984 × 100

= (16 - 10)/10 × 100

=6/10×100

=60%

The price level rise by 60% from 1984 to 2005

C.

In 1984, total buckets of chicken produced= 10,000

In 2005, total buckets of chicken produced = 22000

real GDP in 1984 = total buckets of chicken produced × current price per bucket in 2005

= 10,000 × $16

= $160,000

real GDP in 2005 = total buckets of chicken produced in 2005 × current price per bucket in 2005

  = 22000 × $16

= $352,000
