When the price of good A is $50, the quantity demanded of good A is 500 units. When the price of good A rises to $70, the quanti

Answer: The price elasticity of demand for good A is 0.67, and an increase in price will result in a increase in total revenue for good A

Explanation:

The following can be deduced form the question:

P1 = $50

P2 = $70

Q1 = 500 units

Q2 = 400 units

Percentage change in quantity = [Q2 - Q1 / (Q2 + Q1) ÷ 2 ] × 100

Percentage change in price = [P2 - P1 / (P2 + P1) ÷ 2 ] × 100

% change in quantity = (400 - 500)/(400 + 500)/2 × 100

= -100/450 × 100

= -22.22%

% change on price = (70 - 50)/(70 + 50)/2 × 100

= 20/60 × 100

= 33

Price elasticity of demand = % change in quantity / % change on price

= -22.22 / 33

= -0.67

This means that a 1% change in price will lead to a 0.67% change in quantity demanded. As there was a price change, there'll be a little change in quantity demanded because demand is inelastic. Thereby, he increase in price will lead to an increase in the total revenue.

Therefore, the price elasticity of demand for good A is 0.67, and an increase in price will result in an increase in total revenue for good A

True or false: When units produced are less than units sold, net income under absorption costing will be less than net income co

Oliga [24]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Generally, net income will be the same under absorption costing and variable costing. However, producing fewer units than units sold will decrease the net income under absorption costing. As whatever the variable cost is under the absorption method, fixed manufacturing overhead remains the same that decreases the gross profit and net income. Under the variable costing, the fixed overhead will be calculated as per the units produced. Therefore, the net income will decrease proportionately.

Year 1 Year 2 Amounts billed to clients for services rendered $ 182,000 $ 232,000 Cash collected from clients 154,000 184,000 Ca

Advocard [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Year 1:

Cash collected from clients $154,000

Salaries paid to employees for services rendered during the year $27,000

Utilities $84,000

Purchase of insurance policy $58,200

So, in order to find net cash flow, $(154000-27000-84000-58200)=-15200

Year 2:

Cash collected from clients $184,000

Salaries paid 34000

Utilities paid 94000

Insurance paid is 0

So, net cash flow $184000-$(34000+94000)=$56000

Year1 paid 27000 in salaries, accrued =32000

So still 5000 has to be paid in year 2

Year 2 paid 34000 ⇒ so accrued is 29000

Insurance accrued for each year is 58200/3=19400

Income statement for year 1 and 2

year1 year2

Revenue:

Income from services 182000 232000

Salary 84000 94000

Utilities 32000 29000

Insurance 19400 19400
