Answer:

d

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  

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.

The supply of labour usually exceeds the demand for labour. So, the supply of labour is less elastic. as a result workers bear the burden of tax

The market value balance sheet for Scotty Inc. shows cash of $42,000, fixed assets of $319,000, and equity of $237,000. There ar
taurus [48]

Answer:

$30.57

Explanation:

Total assets = Cash + Fixed assets

Total assets = $42,000 + $319,000

Total assets = $361,000.

Total liabilities = Total assets - Equity

Total liabilities = $361,000 total assets - $237,000 equity

Total liabilities = $124,000

Total dividend payments in cash = 7500 shares * $1.03 dividend = $7,725.  So, cash will now be reduced by $34,275 ($42,000 - $7725)

So, total assets will be = $361,000 - $7725 = $353,275.

So, total equity will be = $353,275 - $124,000 = $229,275

The price tomorrow morning = New equity / Total shares

The price tomorrow morning = $229,275 / 7500 shares

The price tomorrow morning = $30.57

What does a future value measure
hjlf
Future value (FV) is the value of a current asset at a future date based on an assumed rate of growth. The future value (FV) is important to investors and financial planners as they use it to estimate how much an investment made today will be worth in the future.

Future Value = Present Value (1 + (Interest Rate x Number of Years)) Let's say Bob invests $1,000 for five years with an interest rate of 10%. The future value would be $1,500.

You own a portfolio equally invested in a risk-free asset and two stocks. If one of the stocks has a beta of 1.27 and the total
andriy [413]

Answer:

the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is 1.73

Explanation:

The computation of the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is shown below:

Given that

risk free asset contains the beta of 0

And,  

market beta = 1

Now  

1 = 1 ÷ 3 × 0 + 1 ÷ 3 × 1.27 + 1 ÷ 3 × beta

The beta of other stock = 1.73

hence, the beta be for the other stock in your portfolio is 1.73

Here we assume that one-third should be invested in all 3 things each
