Answer:
b.The good is a necessity
Explanation:
The price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded/ percentage change in price
3% / 12% = 0.25
When the coefficient of elasticity is less than one, demand is inelastic.
Inelastic demand means that when price increases, there is little or no change in quantity demanded.
Necessity goods are goods that are very important to consumers and thus they tend to have an inelastic demand. For example, medications.
Substitute goods are goods that can be used in place of another good because of their similarity. E.g. butter and margarine
Goods with many substitutes have an elastic demand. If price of a good increases, consumers can easily shift consumption to substitute goods.
Narrowly defined goods have an elastic demand because it is easier to find subsituites for such goods.
Demand is more elastic in the long run because consumers have more time to search for substitutes.

Dear esteemed customers,
I bring to you an unpalatable news about the changes that would be initiated in our business approach to our customers.
As you can bear witness to, there has been a drastic increase in the cost of doing business in our industry with the notable changes being in the wheat used in producing our confectioneries, the sugar as well as the rising cost of transportation to various customers' locations.
Taking this into account, our company decided to introduce a flat rate delivery cost of $20 irrespective of the location of our customers. This would help us to minimize our production cost. Inorder to also consider our customers, there is a free 20 pieces cake (box) offered to every customer who buys 50 box of each product. This means, 50 box of cupcakes earns you one box free, 100 box cupcake purchase earns you 2 free boxes.
I do hope you would understand our challenges as a company and bear with us regarding to this delivery charge introduction.
Sincerely,
Maris Albert (For the company)

Answer:
The correct answer is False.
Explanation:
Net working capital, or "Working Capital" is simply the difference between current or current assets and current or short-term liabilities of a company.
Cash flow, on the other hand, is the net amount of cash and its equivalents that is transferred inside and outside the company and that may originate in operational, investment or financing activities.
Cash flow will have an operational origin, when there is a net decrease in working capital. In this situation there will be a net cash release that the company can use freely to honor debts, reinvest in operations, pay dividends, cover expenses or provide funds for future investments.
A negative cash flow, from the point of view of operations, implies that the company has increased its cash demands to finance sales on credit or inventory. That is, it has increased its investment in working capital. Situation that will require an analysis that allows a better way to manage capital.
