North Division has the following information:

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

due to elimination

income will decrease by $526000

Explanation:

Given data

Sales = $1180000

Variable expenses = $654000

Fixed expenses = $620000

to find out

incremental effect on net income

solution

we know here total sale is $1180000 and Variable expenses is $654000

so contribution if the division is dropped is sales - Variable expenses

put these value

contribution = 1180000 - 654000

contribution = 526000

so we say that due to elimination

income will decrease by $526000

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

$6,000

Explanation:

A deductible is the amount Conor has to pay before his medical bills and prescriptions start getting coverage from his insurance.

Step 1: 10,000 - 2,000 = 8,000

A co-pay is a fixed amount the insured has to pay for certain medical services.

Step 2: 20% of 8,000 or 0.20 times 8,000 = 1,600

Step 3: add $2,000 (the deductible you have to pay) and $1,600 (the co-pay)

Total amount that Conor will have to pay for the hospital: $3,600

A firm has estimated the following demand function for its product:

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

(i) Q=300

(ii) Elasticity of Demand=-3.33 (elastic)

(iii) Income Elasticity= 2.5 (normal good)

(iv) Advertising Elasticity: 1.5

Explanation:

The Demand function is given by

$Q=100-5P+5I+15A$

(1) To solve (i) we need to replace P = 200, I = 150, and A = 30 in the demand equation:

$Q=100-5(200)+5(150)+15(30)=300$

(2) To find the price elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with price) we use the point price elasticity formula

$\eta_{Price}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P}\frac{P}{Q}$

From the above equation we get: $\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P}=-5$

Replacing in the elasticity formula

$\eta_{Price}=-5\frac{200}{300}=|-3.33|>1$

in absolute terms the elasticity is bigger than one so it is an elastic demand.

(3) For income elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with income), we proceed similarly as above. But the derivative is respect to income

$\eta_{Income}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta I}\frac{I}{Q}=5\frac{150}{300}=2.5>1$ [/tex]

Which is bigger than one, denoting this is a normal good because it's bigger than one.

(4) Advertising elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with expenditures in advertising), we proceed as before

$\eta_{advertising}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta A}\frac{A}{Q}=15\frac{30}{300}=1.5$
