Answer:
According to the numbers in the article
smoking among adults is inelastic because the percent change in price is less than the percentage change in quantity demanded.
Explanation:
Inelasticity means that price changes do not affect the demand for smoking among adults.  When the habits of consumers to smoke are not determined by the change in the price of the item, the demand is described as inelastic.  In other words, a change in the price of the good or service does not generate a corresponding change in the quantity demanded. Inelasticity, as an economic term, states that the quantity demanded of a good or service remains static when there is a change in its price.
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
5,409 books
Explanation:
to calculate break even point in units we can use the following formula:
break even point in units = total fixed costs / contribution margin per unit
- total fixed costs = $53,000
- contribution margin per unit = sales price - variable costs = $12 - $2.20 = $9.80
break even point in units = $53,000 / $9,80 = 5,408.16 ≈ 5,409 books
in $, that would equal = 5,409 books x $12 per book = $64,908

Answer:
a. $8.33
$1.95
b.$136,500
Explanation:
The computation of earnings per share and the common dividends per share is shown below:-
a. Earning per share = Earnings Available to Common Stockholders ÷ Number of Shares of Common Stock Outstanding
= $178,300 ÷ 21,400
= $8.33
Dividends per Share = $41,800 ÷ 21,400
= $1.95
b. Increase in retained earnings = Operating Profit (EBIT) - Interest expense - Taxes - Preferred dividends - Common dividends
= $307,000 - $32,000 - $65,100 + $31,600 + $41,800
= $136,500
We simply applied the above formulas
