Suppose that a Country Club is considering what price to charge for adults. They know that if they charge a price of $100 then 7

0 adults will join and if they charge a price of $120 then 50 adults will join. What is the absolute value of the price elasticity of demand for adults at this Country Club

Answer:

1.43

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price

Price =120 /100 - 1 = 0.2

Quantity = 50/ 70 - 1 =  0.2857

0.2857 / 0.2 = 1.43

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.  

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.  

Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases  

Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price

p = 0,2

=0.2857

The W. J. Clinton Company issued 750 shares of $1 stated value common stock in exchange for land from the Whitewater Investment
MrMuchimi

Explanation:

The journal entry is as follows:

Land  Dr $70,000

Additional paid in capital  $5,000

             To Common stock $75,000

(Being the common stock is issued in exchanged for cash)

The computation of the additional paid in capital is shown below:

= Common stock - the appraised value of land

where,

The common stock = 750 shares × $100 = $75,000

And, the  appraised value of land is $70,000

So, the remaining balance is

= $75,000 - $70,000

= $5,000

The $5,000 would be recorded as an additional paid in capital

Let $S$ be the set of complex numbers of the form $a + bi,$ where $a$ and $b$ are integers. We say that $z \in S$ is a unit if t
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Number of units possible in S are 4.

Explanation:

Given <em>S</em> is a set of complex number of the form a+bi where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are integers.

z\in S is a unit if w\in z exists such that zw=1.

To find:

Number of units possible = ?

Solution:

Given that:

zw = 1

Taking modulus both sides:

|zw| = |1|

Using the property that modulus of product of two complex numbers is equal to their individual modulus multiplied.

i.e.

|z_1z_2|=|z_1|.|z_2|

So,

|zw| = |1|\\\Rightarrow |zw| =|z|.|w| =1\\\Rightarrow |z|=\dfrac{1}{|w|}......... (1)

Let z=a+bi

Then modulus of z is   |z| = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}

Given that a and b are <em>integers</em>, so the equation (1) can be true only when |z| = |w| =1 (Reciprocal of 1 is 1). Modulus can be equal only when one of the following is satisfied:

(a = 1, b = 0) ,  (a = -1, b = 0), (a = 0, b = 1) OR (a = 0, b = -1)

So, the possible complex numbers can be:

1.\ 1 + 0i = 1\\2.\ -1 + 0i = -1\\3.\ 0+ 1i = i\\4.\ 0 -1i = -i

Hence, number of units possible in S are 4.

Discuss the propriety of showing: a) treasury stock as an asset - b) ""gain"" or ""loss"" on sale of treasury stock as additions
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

a. Treasury stock cannot be shown as an asset because a company cannot buy itself.

b) Gain or loss on sale of treasury stock is not to be treated as income, it should be added or subtracted from share capital because it is a capital transaction.

c). Treasury stock is not an asset. Dividends received from treasury stock cannot be treated as income, it is only assets that generates income.

Explanation:

When corporations for some strategic reasons and the desire to maintain and stabilize the shareholders wealth decide to buy back some of its shares, that is what is known as treasury stock. It is also called reacquired stock

a. The treasury stock is like a corporation acquiring itself, so it cannot be shown as an asset, it is only a reclassification within the same balance sheet.

b. Gains or loss on sale of treasury stock is not an income transaction, it is a transaction that affects the share capital of the corporation and must be charged to the share capital not the income.

c. Since treasury stock is not an asset, dividend received on treasury stock is not to be treated as income, it is only assets that generates income. it should affect retained earnings.
