Initial price, P₀ = $1.25
Initial demand, Q₀ = 30 million
New price, P₁ = $1.75
New demand, Q₁ = 35 million
By definition, price elasticity is
η = (5/65)/(0.5/3)
= 0.4615
Answer: η = 0.46 (nearest hundredth)
This means that greater demand makes it possible to increase the price. Usually, this is not the case because lowering the price increases sales.
Answer:
$737,000
Explanation:
The computation of the current earnings and profits this year is shown below:
= Taxable income - federal income tax paid - disallowed entertainment expenses + tax-exempt interest - net capital loss
= $1,200,000 - $408,000 - $25,000 + $20,000 - $50,000
= $737,000
Since we add the exempted interest and deduct all other expenses, losses, and taxes to the taxable income so that accurate value can come
Answer:
a. $169,800
Explanation:
As for the provided information we have,
Sales data, for each month
July $120,000
August $211,000
September $198,000
Cash receipt budgeted for September shall be:
36% of sale of the month of July = $120,000 
36% = $43,200
60% of sale of the month of August = $211,000 60% = $126,600
Thus, total expected amount = $169,800
Therefore, correct option is
a. $169,800
Answer:
The budgeted cost of merchandise purchases is $527,000
Explanation:
The cost of merchandise purchases for May can be computed by first of all calculating the costs of goods sold,then by deducting closing inventory from costs of good sold and adding opening inventory,just like working backwards.
Sales $870,000
less margin($870,000*40%) ($348,000)
Cost of goods sold $522,000
Cost of goods sold =opening stock+purchases-closing stock
purchases=costs of goods sold+closing stock-opening stock
closing stock is $52000
opening stock is $47000
purchases =$522000+$52000-$47000
purchases= $527,000
Answer:
Equilibrium Y = 462.5 , Equilibrium C = 362.5 , Equilibrium S = 100
Explanation:
- At equilibrium : Aggregate Demand = Aggregate Supply
[ AD = C + I ] = [ AS = C + S = Y ]
45 + 0.6Y + 0.05 W + 100 = Y → 45 + 0.6Y + 0.05 (800) + 100 = Y
45 + 40 + 100 + 0.6Y = Y → Y ; 185 + 0.6Y = Y
Y - 0.6Y = 185
0.4Y = 185
Y = 185 / 0.4 = 462.5
- Consumption C = 45 + 0.6Y + 0.05W
Putting Y value : C = 45 + 0.6 (462.5) + 0.05 (800) → C = 45 + 277.5 + 40
C = 362.5
- Income Y is either consumed (C) or saved (S). So, Y = C + S
Hence , S = Y - C → 462.5 - 362.5 = 100
Alternatively : As C + I = C + S
Hence, I = S
Equilibrium Savings = Given Investment = 100
