Answer:
2.2
Explanation:
The formula for calculating price elasticity using the midpoint method is:
midpoint method = {(Q2 - Q1) / [(Q2 + Q1) / 2]} / {(P2 - P1) / [(P2 + P1) / 2]}
midpoint method = {(150 - 100) / [(150 + 100) / 2]} / {(1.20 - 1) / [(1.20 + 1) / 2]}
midpoint method = [50 / (250 / 2)] / [0.20 / (2.20 / 2)] = (50 / 125) / (0.20 / 1.1)
midpoint method = 0.4 / 0.19 = 2.2
The advantage of using the midpoint method to calculate price elasticity is that we can calculate the price elasticity between two points, and it doesn't matter if the price increases or decreases.
If we calculate price elasticity using the single point formula:
price elasticity = % change in quantity supplied / % change in price = 50% / 20% = 2.5
Answer: In-Market audiences
Explanation:
In-market audiences are internet users who through their browsing history and tendencies have spurred Google to term them as users with <em>high commercial intent</em>.
Because of the analysis done by Google, they know what the users are looking for and so one can target specific ads at them. Steve can therefore use Google Display Ads to target those customers who are looking to buy similar products to his through In-market audiences.
Answer:
a: 12.8%
Explanation:
Standard Deviation would be calculated with the probability approach since there is probability given in the question.
- Formula of Standard Deviation and the solution is given in the pictures below.
- Although ERR the required part to calculate Standard Deviation is calculated in the text.
Calculating ERR:
ERR= Sum of Probabilities × Rate of returns.
In our question = ERR= 0.2 × 30% + 0.5 × 10% + 0.3 × (-6%) = 0.128 = 12.8%
Thus, by putting all the values in the formula you will get the answer 12.8%.
Answer:
C. Shut down the presses printing my book
Explanation:
Since the average variable cost of producing the book is above the demand curve, the best course of action is to shut down the printing (production) of more books. The author would lose less money by shutting down operations rather than continuing production at a variable cost higher than the demand he's receiving for the books.
In economics, when profit is less than the average variable cost, firms are advised to stop production in the short run and incur economic loss on fixed inputs. This is because with continued operations, total revenue would not only be lower than total cost, but rather, would also be less than total variable cost.
Answer:
Dr accounts payable $2,300
Cr cash $2300
Explanation:
Initially the cost of the purchases=$4600
Returning half of the disc means the left for the discs actually bought is half of the invoice price of $4600 i.e $2,300
By not paying within the discount period implies that the debt stands at $2,300
Without mincing words,payment of $2,300 to the supplier automatically translates to debiting account payable with $2,300 and crediting cash account with the same amount.
The correct answer would :
Dr accounts payable $2,300
Cr cash $2300
This is missing from the options provided.
