A shift in demand that is as a result of other factors except for price results in a shift of demand. A reduction of price as a result of the financial crises will lead to a shift of demand to the left.
Demand for cinema tickets will reduce at all price level.

Answer:
The initial deposit should be of: $97,439.62
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
To replace the new machine when it wears out, the company wants to establish a savings account today. The interest rate on the account is 1.9 percent per quarter and the cost of the machinery is $325,000.
To calculate the initial investment required, we need to use a variation on the simple interest future value formula:
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
PV= present value
Isolating PV:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
i= 0.019
n= 4*16= 64
FV= 325,000
PV= 325,000/ (1.019^64)= $97,439.62
Answer:
buying puts
Explanation:
A put option is a sale option. It gives the buyer the right (but not the obligation) to sell an asset in the future to the seller of the option at a previously determined price.
The owner or buyer of a put option benefits from the option if the underlying asset falls, that is, if when the put option expires, the asset (a share for example) has a price lower than the agreed price . In that case, the option buyer will exercise his right and sell the asset at the agreed price and then buy it at the current market price, earning the difference.
If the price turns out to be higher than the agreed price, known as the strike or strike price, the buyer will not exercise his right and will simply have lost the premium he paid to acquire the option. Therefore, your benefit may be unlimited, but your loss is limited to the premium you paid.
Answer:
The productivity increased from 0.89 carts pwe worker per hour to 0.93 arts per worker per hour.
Explanation:
5 worked make 80 carts per hour
Worker receive $10 dollar per hour = $50 dollars wages epxense
Machine cost $40 dollar per hour
A worked is crow-out from factory and the equipment cost increased by $10
The total cost still is $90 dollars but the output now is 84 carts
Labor Productivity (before purchase of new equipment)
80 carts
(5 wkrs .∗$ 10 per hr .)+$ 40
= 0.89 carts per worker per hour
Labor Productivity (after purchase of new equipment)
84 carts
(4 wkrs .∗$ 10 per hr .)+$ 50
= 0.93 carts per worker per hour
<u>Question missing:</u>
Compute labor productivity under each system (before and after the purchase of new equipment). <u>Use carts per worker per hour</u> as the measure of labor productivity.
