Answer:

2.58%

Explanation:

Mathematically, the relationship between the different interest rates using the equation is shown below:

(1+S2)^2=(1+S1)^1*(1+2y1y)

The spot rate in year 2 is the same as the spot rate in year 1 multiplied by the 1-year forward rate beginning in year 2.

S2=2-year rate =2.34%

S1=1-year rate =2.10%

2y1y=one-year interest rate 2 years from now=the unknown

(1+2.34%)^2=(1+2.10%)^1*(1+2y1y)

(1+2y1y)=(1+2.34%)^2/(1+2.10%)^1

2y1y)=(((1+2.34%)^2/(1+2.10%)^1)-1

2y1y=1.025805642-1

2y1y= 2.58%

The formula shows that borrowing or lending for 2 years at 2.34% is the same as borrowing or lending at 2.10% in year and 2.58% forward rate in year 2

Anticipated profit/(loss) is ($20,000).

Explanation:

The net profit/(loss) is the difference between the total sales and total cost. The total sales is computed as the product of the sale of each book and the number of books sold. The total cost is the sum of the variable and fixed costs.

The total variable cost is the product of the variable cost per book and the total number of books sold.

Alternatively, sales less variable cost gives contribution margin. Contribution margin less fixed cost gives the net profit. As shown in the spreadsheet attached.

When the price of good A is $50, the quantity demanded of good A is 500 units. When the price of good A rises to $70, the quanti
olga55 [171]

Answer: The price elasticity of demand for good A is 0.67, and an increase in price will result in a increase in total revenue for good A

Explanation:

The following can be deduced form the question:

P1 = $50

P2 = $70

Q1 = 500 units

Q2 = 400 units

Percentage change in quantity = [Q2 - Q1 / (Q2 + Q1) ÷ 2 ] × 100

Percentage change in price = [P2 - P1 / (P2 + P1) ÷ 2 ] × 100

% change in quantity = (400 - 500)/(400 + 500)/2 × 100

= -100/450 × 100

= -22.22%

% change on price = (70 - 50)/(70 + 50)/2 × 100

= 20/60 × 100

= 33

Price elasticity of demand = % change in quantity / % change on price

= -22.22 / 33

= -0.67

This means that a 1% change in price will lead to a 0.67% change in quantity demanded. As there was a price change, there'll be a little change in quantity demanded because demand is inelastic. Thereby, he increase in price will lead to an increase in the total revenue.

Therefore, the price elasticity of demand for good A is 0.67, and an increase in price will result in an increase in total revenue for good A
