Answer:

see below

Explanation:

Elastic demand describes a scenario where a small change in price results in a significant difference in the quantity demanded. The term 'elastic ' suggests a moving or a stretching demand. Goods that have many substitutes have an elastic demand.

A product or service will have an elastic demand when a small price change greatly affects consumption. Customers will still seek alternative cheaper options if the price increases, which causes demand to drop significantly. The demand for cooldrink is price elastic if a small change in price results in demand changing considerably.

Real GDP per capita is not a perfect measure of the well-being of a country's individual citizens because: Instructions: You may

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

it does not measure quality-of-life factors ; it does not account for distribution of wealth ; it fails to measure non monetary (home production) activities

Explanation:

Real GDP is the total value of goods & services produced in an economy, during a period of time. But it is not correct measure of welfare level.

It does not measure non monetary production, like hobby production eg kitchen gardening, self made paintings, music. But, they increase welfare
It does not take into consideration the qualitative factors affecting welfare like pollution, crime & literacy. Externalities cause extra benefit or harm to welfare level, but are excluded from GDP.
Inequitable distribution of per capita (average) GDP increases rich poor standard of living divide. So, the distribution effect ignored make GDP an inapt measure of average welfare level.

Real GDP adjusts the value of goods & services for price change (Inflation), it is a correct measure of increase in real flow of goods & services. GDP & health positive correlation is a favouring point for GDP as a measure of welfare. So, these options are incorrect.

selling price is $41.50

variable cost is $12.80

The price for the target EBIT of $15 million is $167.09

Explanation:

target units=fixed costs+target EBIT/selling price-variable cost

target units is 175,000

fixed costs of $12,000,000

target EBIT of $15,000,000

variable cost is $12.80

selling price is unknown,let assume is X

175,000=($12,000,000+$15,000,000)/X-12.80

175,000=27,000,000/X-12.80

175,000*(X-12.80)=27,000,000

X-12.80=27,000,000/175,000

X-12.80=154.29

X=154.29+12.80

X=$167.09

EBIT=Sales units*(selling price-variable cost)-fixed costs

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $34.13

Explanation:

The price of the stock that grows at two different growth rates can be calculated using the two stage growth model of DDM. The DDM requires to discount back the dividends to calculate the price of the share today.

The price of the stock today is,

P0 = D1 / (1+r) + D2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + Dn / (1+r)^n + [(Dn * (1+g) / (r - g)) / (1+r)^n]

P0 = 1.8 * (1+0.08) / (1+0.11) + 1.8 * (1+0.08)^2 / (1+0.11)^2 +

1.8 * (1+0.08)^3 / (1+0.11)^3 + [ (1.8 * (1+0.08)^3 *(1+0.05) / (0.11-0.05)) / (1+0.11)^3]

P0 = $34.127 rounded off to $34.13
