It is difficult to compare relative job growth for different-sized
businesses because it is hard to determine the cutoff point at which a small
business becomes a large business. It is not easy to know the comparative job development
amongst businesses of different sizes. There are not the same parameters leading
the size of a small business versus a big business. Moreover, there is no defined
point where such a variation can be clearly identified.
Answer:
The value assigned to ending inventory if Niles uses "weighted average" is $320 ( to 160 units @ $2 )
Explanation: Number of units Price per unit Total
Purchases on March 1 = 110 $1.10 $1,21
Purchases March 7 = 210 $2.10 $441
Purchases March 16 = 110 $2.70 $297
Inventory on March 31 = 160 $2.00 $320
Weighted Average Inventory value = Accumulated Value / Total Number of units
Weighted Average Inventory value = ( 121 + 441 + 297 ) / ( 110 + 210 + 110 )
Weighted Average Inventory value = 1.997674419 = $2.00
Answer:
c. 2.71, and supply is elastic.
Explanation:
The formula to compute the price elasticity of supply is shown below:
Price elasticity of supply = (Percentage change in quantity supplied ÷ percentage change in price)
where,
Change in quantity supplied is
= Q2 - Q1
= 100 t-shirts - 75 t-shirts
= 25 t-shirts
And, an average of quantity supplied is
= (100 + 75) ÷ 2
= 87.5
Change in price is
= P2 - P1
= $20 - $18
= $2
And, the average of price is
= ($20 + $18) ÷ 2
= 19
So, after solving this, the price elasticity of supply is 2.71
