Explanation: I got a 100% on the test.
Answer:
Option D
All of the above
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand is given as
Price elasticity of demand = % change in quantity demanded/ % change in price.
Change in quantity demanded will definitely lead to an increase in total revenue. Hence the formula can be revised to become:
Change in quantity demanded = Price elasticity of demand X % Change in price
<em>Option A : If Price elasticity of demand is 1.2 and the price of the good decreases.</em>
This will cause an increase in total revenue since we will be dividing by a reducing denominator
<em>Option B: price elasticity of demand is 3.0 and the price of the good decreases:</em>
This will cause an increase in total revenue since we will be dividing by a reducing denominator
Option C: price elasticity of demand is 0.5 and the price of the good increases:
This is a case of inelastic demand since price elasticity is < 1. In inelastic demand, the price of the good does not affect the change in demand significantly. This is the case of essential goods. Hence, the total revenue will still increase.
Answer:
a. they can be converted into stock at a future time.
Explanation:
A bond can be defined as a debt or fixed investment security, in which a bondholder (investor or creditor) loans an amount of money to the bond issuer (government or corporations) for a specific period of time.
Generally, the bond issuer is expected to return the principal (face value) at maturity with an agreed upon interest (coupon), which are paid at fixed intervals.
A convertible bond can be defined as a type of bond that avails the bondholder the opportunity, right or obligation to convert the bond into a predetermined (fixed or specific) number of shares of common stock in the company issuing the bond. Thus, this feature or characteristics of convertible bonds make them attractive to bondholders (investors) because they can be converted into stock at a future time or at the issuer's option.
Answer:
c. will earn zero economic profits but positive accounting profits
Explanation:
A competitive industry is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services.
There are no barriers to entry and exit of firms. If firms in a competitive industry earn economic profit in the short run, firms enter into the industry in the long run and economic profit falls to zero.
A competitive firm earns accounting profit but doesn't earn economic profit.
Accounting profit = Revenue - Cost
Economic profit = Accounting profit - Opportunity cost
