Answer:

$0.35

Explanation:

The computation of the price elasticity of demand using mid point formula is shown below:

= (change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (percentage change in price ÷ average of price)

So, Change in quantity demanded would be

= Q2 - Q1

= 40 - 30

= 10

Now, Average of quantity demanded

= (40 + 30) ÷ 2

= 35

Change in price

= P2 - P1

= $35 - $15

= $20

And, the average of price would be

= ($35 + $15) ÷ 2

= $25

Cross price elasticity of demand = (10 ÷ 35) ÷ ($20 ÷ $25)

= 0.28 ÷ $0.8

= $0.35

Assume you’ve got terrific credit: What would be your likely APR for purchases or balance transfers?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The APR stands for the annual percentage rate, and you can hope for a credit card with the least APR since you have good credit. It is the interest rate that is charged annually over the credit you spend. And the average credit card APR is 15.09, as mentioned in the February report. And on account that assesses interest, on average the APR is 16.91. And hence an APR below the 17.57, can be considered as a good one. And hence, this can be your APR for purchases or the balance transfers since you have a terrific credit.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

1. The present yearly net operating loss is $65,700

2. Break even point in unit sales is 27,690 units, in dollars sales $2,575,170.00

3. The maximum annual profit that the company can earn is $23,300, at 30,500 units with a selling price per unit of $91

Explanation:

At breakeven point, the cost and revenue of the company are same such that the company neither a profit nor a loss. Operating profit or loss is the difference between the revenue and the cost of the company.

The cost of the company usually consist of the fixed and variable elements.

Given that the company’s present selling price is $93 per unit, and variable expenses are $63 per unit. Fixed expenses are $830,700 per year with present annual sales volume (at the $93 selling price) is 25,500 units

Hence the operating profit or (loss)

= $93 * 25,500 - ($63 * 25,500 + $830,700)

= $765,000 - $830,700

= ($65,700)

A loss of $65,700

Break even point in unit sales = Fixed costs / (Selling price per unit – Variable cost per unit)

= $830,700 / ($93 - $63)

= $830,700 / $30

= 27,690 units

In dollar sales

= $93 * 27,690

= $2,575,170.00

if the marketing studies are correct then the new selling price per unit will be

= $93 - $2

= $91

The units sold will be

= 5000 +  25,500

= 30,500 units

The maximum profit to be made

= $91 * 30,500 - ($63 * 30,500 + $830,700)

= $854,000 - $830,700

= $23,300
