Other things being equal, demand is less elastic A. the smaller the percentage of a total budget that a family spends on a good

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": the more substitutes a good has.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand is the result of the relation between changes in price and quantity demanded for a good or service. Price elasticity of demand is calculated dividing the percentage change in quantity demanded by the percentage change in price. If the result is equal to or greater than 1, the demand is elastic. This situation implies a minimum change in price will affect by far the quantity demanded of that good or service.

Thus, products with many substitutes are elastic because a minimal change in their price would represent a large change in quantity demanded since consumers will find similar products that satisfy their needs in the same proportion.

The York Company has arranged a line of credit that allows it to borrow up to $64 milion at any time. The interest rate is .640

klio [65]

Answer:

8.46%

Explanation:

Monthly interest rate = 0.640%

Number of month in year = 12

Investment in non-interest bearing = 6%

Effective annual interest = [(1 + Monthly interest rate)^Number of month] - 1 / (1 - Investment in Non-interest)

Effective annual interest = [(1 + 0.640%)^12] - 1 / (1 - 6%)

Effective annual interest = (1.0064)^12 - 1 / 0.94

Effective annual interest = 1.07956187072 - 1 / 0.94

Effective annual interest = 0.07956187072 / 0.94

Effective annual interest = 0.084640288

Effective annual interest = 8.46%

Hence, the Effective annual is 8.46%.

5) A car rental company offers two plans for one way rentals. Plan I charges $36 per day and 17 cents per mile. Plan II charges

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

a. Plan I is better is we drive 300 miles in a day.

b. 150 miles.

Explanation:

a. if mileage is 300 then rental charges will be,

Plan I : $36 + 17 cents * miles

$36 + 0.17 * 300 = $41.10.

Plan II : $24 + 25 cents * miles

$24 + 0.25 * 300 = $99.00

Plan I total cost for 300 miles is $41.10 whereas Plan II total cost for 300 miles is $99.00. Plan I is better plan and cost effective.

b. For mileage (m) calculation we will use equation;

Plan I = Plan II

$36 + 0.17m = $24 +0.25m

0.25m - 0.17m = $36 - $24

m = $12 / 0.08

m = 150 miles.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The payback period is more than 5 years

Explanation:

Net present value is the Net value of all cash inflows and outflows in present value term. All the cash flows are discounted using a required rate of return.

Year Cash flow PV factor Present Value

0 ($490,000) 1 ($490,000)

1 $40,000 0.909 $36,360

2 $10,000 0.826 $8,260

3 $120,000 0.751 $90,120

4 $90,000 0.683 $61,470

5 $180,000 0.621 $111,780

Net Present Value ($182,010)

NPV of this Investment is negative so, it is not acceptable.

Payback period

Total Net cash inflow of the investment is $440,000 and Initial investment is $490,000. This investment will take more than 5 years to payback the initial investment.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Production= 43,000 units

Variable costs are $2.95 per unit

Avoidable Fixed costs= $73,000 per year

Unavoidable fixed costs= $77,500 per year.

The company is considering buying this component from a supplier for $3.70 per unit.

We need to calculate the cost of producing and buying and choose the best option.

Production:

Total cost= 43,000*2.95 + 73,000= $199,850

Buy:

Total cost= 43,000*3.7= $159,100

It is cheaper to buy the component. At this level of production by $40,750.
