caps the maximum ticket price to any sporting event at $50. Assume there are a fixed amount of seats in the stadium, all seats are available to be sold, and the price of tickets before the ceiling was at an equilibrium point above $50.The price ceiling will create a ___________ of tickets, which will be greater if demand is more _______________, and _________ people will attend the events.
a. surplus; elastic; more
b. shortage; inelastic; fewer
c. shortage; elastic; the same number of

Answer:

C. <u>shortage</u>; <u>elastic</u>; <u>the same number of</u>

Explanation:

The law of demand states an inverse relationship between quantity demanded of a good and it's price.

Price elasticity of demand refers to the degree of responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in price. When quantity demanded changes less relatively to change in price, it is termed as inelastic demand while when the change in quantity demanded is lot more than the change in price, it is termed as elastic demand.

In the given case, after the upper limit price has been capped and fixed, this would create a rush and tickets for the sports events would be sold off since the quantity demanded would rise.

This would result into a shortage since demand shall exceed supply and since the price cannot be raised above $50.

The more elastic the demand, more shortage of tickets it would result into and the same number of people will attend the events i.e the seating capacity is not increased.

Answer:

C) Shortage ; Elastic ; Same number of

Explanation:

Usual market are at equilibrium when : Market Demand = Market Supply. Upward sloping supply curve (due to law of supply) & Downward sloping demand curve (due to law of demand) intersect each other.

Price Ceiling is maximum mandated sale price by government, selling above which is prohibited. It is usually created below equilibrium price, to protect the interest of buyers.

As supply & demand are respectively positive & negative sloping, lower price decreases supply & increases demand. This creates excess demand or shortage.

Price Elasticity is responsiveness of demand due to change in price. If it is more, demand would change more due to price change. So, shortage would be more in this case.

As, there is excess demand - all the tickets would be sold, the same number of people would still attend the events (as the hall occupancy is same).

You work for a marketing firm that has just landed a contract with Run-of-the-Mills to help them promote three of their products
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Decrease in the price of penguin patties = 5%

Quantity of frizzles sold increase by 4%

Quantity of mookies sold decrease by 5%

Cross-price elasticity of frizzles relative to penguin patties = 4%/-5% = -0.8

Cross-price elasticity of mookies relative to penguin patties = -5%/-5% = 1

Relative to Frizzles  Cross-Price                 Complement   Recommend

and Mookie's          Elasticity of Demand   or Substitute     Marketing

Frizzles                   -0.8 (4%/-5%)                Complement    with patties

Mookie's                  1 (-5%/-5%)                  Substitute          without patties

b) The cross-price elasticity measurements for penguin patties and frizzles and Mookie’s are calculated by taking the percentage changes in the quantity demanded of frizzles and Mookie’s and dividing them by the percentage change in the price of the penguin patties. Complementary goods have a negative cross- price elasticity because as the price of penguin patties decreases by 5%, the demand for the frizzles increases by 4%. Substitute goods have a positive cross-price elasticity because as the price of penguin patties decreases by 5%, the demand for the other good decreases by 5%.

Which of the following is happening when a lending institution gains money from an individual's paycheck to cover outstanding de
lozanna [386]

When a lending institution receives an amount from the individual on his/her monthly paycheck for covering his/her due debts is called Garnishment.

Option B is the correct answer.

<h3 /><h3>What is a paycheck?</h3>

A paycheck is a check provided to the employee for the work done by him/her. It defines the amount of remuneration and other incentives earned by the employee on a monthly basis.

A legal technique that allows a third party to reduce a certain amount from the salary or wages of an individual against the payment of any dues, then this technique is called Garnishment. The third party can be the bank of the debtor and the receiver is the lending institution to whom an individual has to pay back the due amount.

Therefore, Garnishment is the process where the lender receives a certain amount from the salary of the debtor against his/her dues.
