Answer:

0.42

Explanation:

Income elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in income.

If the absolute value of income elasticity of demand is greater than one, it means demand is elastic.

If the absolute value of income elasticity of demand is less than one, it means demand is inelastic.

Income elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in income

lukranit [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": are damages in excess of the plaintiff's injuries, awarded to punish the defendant.

The punitive damage is not provided to the plaintiffs but is imposed to punish defendants when their faults are negligent and should not be repeated.  

Thus, <em>punish damages are imposed in an attempt to avoid other individuals to commit the same gross faults.</em>

Sales revenue                                                       $104,000

Gross profit                                                            $39,000

In that case, we do not use Income tax expense, Operating expenses, Deferred revenues, Non-operating revenues because those will be needed when we will calculate the net income.
