Answer:

C) 0.9.

Explanation:

The calculation  of the price elasticity of demand is shown below:

Price elasticity of demand is

= (Change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (Change in price ÷ average of price)

where,

q1 = 11

q2 = 9

p1 = $100

p2 = $125

So,

= {(9 - 11) ÷ (9 + 11) ÷ 2}  ÷  {($125 - $100) ÷ ($125 + $100) ÷ 2 }

= {-2 ÷ 10} ÷ {25 ÷ 112.5 }

= -0.9

= 0.9

Anton [14]

Answer:

Variable cost per unit = $4.60

Explanation:

To calculate the element of variable cost in a mix cost using high-low method, we need to take the cost of the highest activity level and subtract the cost of the lowest activity level from it and divide the answer by the difference between the highest and the lowest activity levels.

<u>High-low method</u>

  • Variable cost per unit = (Highest Activity Cost - Lowest Activity Cost) / (Highest Activity Units - Lowest Activity Units)

  • Variable cost per unit = (66436 - 60226) / (2660 - 1310) = $4.60 per unit

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

220

Explanation:

Let us assume the adult ticket be X

And, the student ticket be Y

So, the first equation is

X + Y = 360

So, Y = 360 - X

Now the second equation is

5X + 3Y = $1,360

Now put the Y value to the above equation

5X + 3 × (360 - X) = $1,360

5X +  1,080 - 3X = $1,360

2X = $1,360 - $1,080

2X = $280

X = 140

Now the X + Y = 360

So, Y equal to

= 360 - 140

= 220
