Answer:
Based on the information supply of cards is more elastic (price sensitive) than that of roses
Explanation:
Price elasticity of supply is defined as the sensitivity of quantity supplied to changes in price.
The formula is given below
Price elasticity of supply= Change in quantity supplied ÷ Change in price
In this scenario the demand for both roses and cards increases, however the price of roses increases more.
This implies that the denominator in the formula is higher in roses resulting in smaller price elasticity of supply.
The elasticity of supply for cards is higher than that of roses, so it is more sensitive to changes in price.
Cards can be stored from year to year so the labour for maintaining a stock of cards is low with resultant low price.
On the other hand roses require care to grow. It requires watering, application of chemicals to treat infestation and so on. So suppliers tend to push the extra cost of growing roses to the buyers

Answer:
50 customers per day
Explanation:
For computing the capacity required customers per day, first, we have to compute the current demand per day which is shown below:
Current demand = Average number of pets per day × estimated percentage
= 74 pets × 60%
= 44.4 per day
Now the capacity required per day would be
= (Current demand per day) ÷ (1 - capacity cushion percentage)
= 44.2 ÷ (1 - 0.12)
= 50.22 per day
Answer:
the current stock of the value today is $25
Explanation:
The computation of the current stock of the value today is shown below:
Next year dividend D1 = $3
growth rate g =6% forever
rate of return = 18%
So,
Current Stock Price P = D1 ÷ (r - g)
=3 ÷ (18% - 6%)
= 3 ÷ 12%
= 3 ÷ 0.12
= $25
Hence, the current stock of the value today is $25
Answer: Option D
Explanation: As per the tax laws, the activities in which the taxpayer has expertise in and he or she is getting some kind of monetary benefit from performing it, then such activity will be seen as a business.
However, if the taxpayer do not repetitively perform an activity and derives no personal gain other than pleasure from performing such activity, then it will be a hobby.
Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is D.
