Answer:

20%

Explanation:

Given that

Advertising elasticity of demand = 0.25

Quantity demanded = 5% increase

Recall that

Elasticity = change in demand/change in advertising

That is

Change in advertising = Change in demand / elasticity of production

Therefore, change in advertising

= 5/0.25

= 20%

Advertising must increase by 20% in order to increase demand by 5%

Answer:

Increase the advertising by 20% in order to increase demand by 5%

Explanation:

Demand for a product is elastic when a change in price causes change in the demand for that product.

When the change in price doesn't change the demand of the product then the demand for the product is inelastic.

The elasticity of demand is calculated

Elasticity of demand = Change in demand / Change in advertising

Change in advertising = Change in demand/Elasticity of demand

We want to increase the demand by 5% and the elasticity of demand is 0.25

Change in advertising = 0.05/0.25

Change in advertising = 0.20*100%

Change in advertising = 20%

Therefore, we have to increase advertising by 20% in order to increase demand by 5%

Flexible Budgeting At the beginning of the period, the Fabricating Department budgeted direct labor of $9,280 and equipment depr
andriy [413]

Answer:

$11,000

Explanation:

Fabricating Department budgeted direct labor = $9,280

Depreciation remains constant at any level of production.

Budgeted labor rate = Budgeted direct labor ÷ Hours of production

                                  = $9,280 ÷ 640

                                  = $14.5 per hour

Direct labor cost = completed hours of production × Budgeted labor rate

                            = 600 × $14.5

                            = $8,700

Budget for the Fabricating Department at 600 hours of production:

Budgeted cost = Direct labor cost + Equipment depreciation

                         = $8,700 + $2,300

                         = $11,000

Valerie promises Teresa that she will pay Teresa $50 if Teresa will clean Valerie's house by noon on Saturday. If Teresa cleans
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

b) false

Explanation:

This could be considered a bilateral and executory contract because both parties agreed to perform and exchange consideration in the future (in this case, Saturday). But it cannot be considered an implied contract.

E.g., an implied contract happens when you enter a movie theater and a commercial relationship is established where the movie theater must allow you to see a movie and you must pay your ticket for doing so. The same applies for other public places restaurants, theme parks, etc.

But in this case, Valerie's house is not a place where any person is free to attend. You cannot just go into Valerie's house and start cleaning so that she pays you $50.

Implied contracts might also result from previous performances, e.g. Teresa cleans Valerie's house every Saturday for almost 2 years now. The past performance might result in an implied contract, but this wouldn't be the case here either.
