The answer would be that there are few other places to purchase soda on campus; competition (or lack thereof) can play a big factor in determining price elasticity.

While nutrition information can shift consumers' preferences, we have no indication within the question of whether or not the students are well-informed of the impact of their drinking choices.

As for the third option, we are not given any information on the students' budgets, and no information with which to infer this, either. We only have information on their spending as it is related to soda, not as compared to other purchases.

Finally, given that the quantity sold does not change much despite the change in price, we can conclude that this price curve is relatively inelastic, in which case the price elasticity of demand would be closer to zero than one. This effectively rules out the last answer.

Lera25 [3.4K]

The answer is <u>"self-serving bias".</u>


A self-serving bias is the normal habit for a man assuming praise for positive occasions or results, yet reprimanding outside elements for negative occasions. This can be influenced by age, culture, clinical conclusion, and the sky is the limit from there. It has a tendency to happen broadly crosswise over populaces.  

Self-serving bias happens in every extraordinary sort of circumstances, crosswise over sexual orientations, ages, societies, and more.

Which of the following statements is true if total fixed costs decrease while the sales price per unit and variable cost per uni
Trava [24]

Answer:

D. The breakeven point decreases.

Explanation:

Breakeven point of a business is defined as the point where it's total cost and total revenues are equal, at this point there is no gain or loss. Hen revenue is above this point profit is made, and when revenue is below this point there is loss.

The formula for break-even is

Breakeven point= Total fixed cost/(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)

Since sales price and variable cost is constant, let's say

(Sales price per unit- Variable cost per unit)= constant (k)

So when we cross-multiply in the formula

Breakeven* k= Total fixed cost

It shows that Breakeven point is directly proportional to Total fixed cost.

So a reduction in Total fixed cost will result in a reduction in Breakeven point.
