Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is 1.14.

The price is Elastic.

Elasticity is more than one so total revenue will fall.

Explanation:

Given the initial price of good x = $12

Final price of good x = $12.90

% change in price = [(12.90 - 12) / 12] x 100 = 7.5 %

Initial quantity = 5000

Final quantity = 4600

% change in quantity = [(4600 - 5000)/5000] x 100 = -8%

Elasticity = % change in quantity / % change in price

Elasticity = 8% / 7%

Elasticity = 1.14

The price elasticity of demand is 1.14.

The price is Elastic.

Since elasticity is more than one so total revenue will fall.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": simple structure.

Explanation:

Canadian professor Henry Mintzberg (<em>born in 1939</em>) proposes there are five types of business organization structures: <em>Simple structure, Machine bureaucracy, Professional bureaucracy, Divisionalized, </em>and <em>Adhocracy</em>. Startups usually managed by their founders are characteristic of the simple structure since this type of organization has a loose organizational structure, are usually flexible and sometimes even informal. Though, it does not leave aside the contribution of its member to achieve the goals of the organization.

Explanation:

Contribution margin is the net of the sale price and variable cost. Contribution margin ratio is the ratio of contribution to sales.

According to given data

Sales = $60,000

Contribution Margin = $60,000 x 35% = $21,000

Advertisement Expense is a fixed cost.

There will be a loss of $4,000 added to overall net income.
