The correct answer is any amount higher than $5,400.

First, you need to solve the break even point of sales when Chris will earn the exact same amount by plan a or plan b. The following equation will solve this problem, with x being the amount of sales.

$360 + .09x = $630 + .04x

First, subtract .04x from both sides:

$360 +.05x = $630

Next, subtract $360 from both sides:

.05x = $270

Finally, divide both sides by .05:

X = $5,400

At $5,400 Chris will earn the same about of pay, regardless of which plan they are on. Since the commission percentage is higher on plan a, Chris is better off having plan a when sales are higher than $5,400. At this point Chris is earning 9% commission, rather than 4% in plan b.

If the inverse demand function is:
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

-0.136 and $528

Explanation:

Given that

p = 50 - 0.5Q

where,

Q = 88

So, p equals to

= 50 - 0.5 × 88

= 50 - 44

= $6  

As it is mentioned that

p = 50 - 0.5Q

0.5Q = 50 - p

Q = 100 - 2p

And we know that

Price elasticity of demand is

= Percentage Change in quantity demanded ÷ Percentage Change in price

So,

= -2 × (6 ÷ 88)

= -0.136

And, the revenue is

= Price × Quantity

= $6 × 88

= $528

During 2017 the inflation rate increased slightly but remained in the​ "comfort zone" and the unemployment rate was low. Why mig
goblinko [34]

Answer:B It thought that unemployment was a greater problem than the rising inflation rate

Explanation:

Inflation is the continuous rise in price of goods and services which is as a result of large volume of money in circulation used for the few available goods and services.

Unemployment is a situation where all that are willing and capable of being employed are unable to get employment.

In the above scenario lowering Interest rates will increase the volume of money in circulation which will invariably increase inflation and we equally increase level of investment as the cost of fund will be cheaper thereby lowering unemployment.

This action means unemployment is of greater problem than rising inflation.

It does not mean inflation is of more concern than unemployment otherwise it will have increase the interest rate, it will make loanable fund demanded to exceed supply and the quantity of money in supply will increase.
