Answer:
A) PED = 1.1
B) demand is elastic
C) Danny's total revenue would decrease
Explanation:
we can calculate the price elasticity of demand using the formula:
PED = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price = [(300 - 250) / 250] / [(2.25 - 2.75) / 2.75] = (50 / 250) / (-0.5 / 2.75) = 0.2 / 0.18 = 1.1
since PED = 1.1, the demand is elastic
if the PED is the same when the price decreases from $2.25 to $1.75, total revenue will :
when price = $2.25, total revenue = $2.25 x 300 = $675
when price = $1.75, total revenue = $1.75 x 373 = $652.75
*a 22.22% decrease in the price will cause a 24.44% increase (= 22.22% x 1.1) in the quantity demanded = 300 units + (300 x 24.44%) = 373.3 ≈ 373 units
The amount of discount that has to be included in Francis's income is 0.
<h3>How to solve for the discount amount</h3>
The amount of the discount - sales price
= 300 - 250
= $50
This is the discount when it is sold to employees
Next we solve for the gross profit as
sales price x gross profit rate
= 300 x 30%
= 90
Given the amounts that we have here we have to conclude that the amount to be included in the account is 0

Answer:
a. continue with the project provided that the additional solar electricity is worth more than $10 million.
Explanation:
It is provided that after cost overruns of the project is $10 million, which can never be recovered, thus, it is a kind of sunk cost.
Sunk cost is the cost which is made previously, and now in no manner will affect the decision, as cannot be recovered.
Therefore, such cost is ignored.
Further provided additional cost will be $12 million, therefore, now the society shall make a rational choice whether to continue the project providing solar electricity of $10 million, as in case of amount of solar energy is $32 million or $22 million, then the choice is obvious to accept,
Rational choice will be for solar electricity worth $10 million.
Therefore, correct statement is
a. continue with the project provided that the additional solar electricity is worth more than $10 million.
