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.

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

Zeke's zipline sold 6 acres of land

The sales price of the land was $12,000

The adjusted basis of the land was $9,000

Zeke received an amount of $4,000 at the time of sale

The remaining $8,000 will be received next year

Therefore, the amount of gain that will be recognised by Zeke in the Current year can be calculated as follows

Sales price-adjusted basis/sales price

$12,000-$9,000/$12,000

= $3,000/$12,000

= 0.25

Amount received at the time of sale × 0.25

= $4,000×0.25

= $1,000

Hence Zeke will recognise a gain of $1,000 in the Current year.

Degger [83]

Answer:

5%

Explanation:

In order to compute the abnormal return first we have to find out the actual return which is shown below:

Actual return is

= ($21 - $18 + 1.32) ÷ ($18) × 100

= 24%

And, the expected return is

= Risk free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - risk free rate of return

= 7% + 1.20 × (17% - 7%)

= 7% + 1.20 × 10%

= 7% + 12%

= 19%

So, the stock abnormal return is

= 24% - 19%

= 5%
