When the local grocery store puts cereal on sale, reducing its price from $4.40 per item to $3.40 per item, the quantity sold in

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

1. Price elasticity of demand

2 & 3. 4.55%

4 & 5. 22.73%

6. 0.2

8. 15.79%

9. 0.56

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial quantity demanded = 220

New quantity demanded = 230

Initial price = $4.40

New price = $3.40

1. This illustrates the price elasticity of demand. Price elasticity of demand is defined as the responsiveness of quantity demanded to any change in the price of the commodity.

2 & 3. Percentage change in quantity demanded:

= [(New quantity demanded - Initial quantity demanded) ÷ Initial quantity demanded] × 100

= [(230 - 220) ÷ 220] × 100

= 0.04545 × 100

= 4.55%

4 & 5. Percentage change in price:

= [(New price - Initial price) ÷ Initial price] × 100

= [($3.40 - $4.40) ÷ $4.40] × 100

= 0.2273 × 100

= 22.73%

6. Price elasticity of demand for cereal:

= Percentage change in quantity demanded ÷ Percentage change in price

= 4.55 ÷ 22.73

= 0.2

7. The price elasticity of demand is comes out to be 0.2 which is less than 1, indicates that quantity demanded is less responsive to changes in the price level.

8 & 9. Given that,

Initial quantity demanded = 210

New quantity demanded = 230

Initial price = $4.10

New price = $3.50

Using the mid point method,

Average price:

= (Initial price + New price ) ÷ 2

= ($4.10 + $3.50 ) ÷ 2

= $3.8

Percentage change in price:

= (New price - Initial price) ÷ Average price

= ($3.50 - $4.10) ÷ $3.8

= 0.1579 or 15.79%

Average quantity demanded:

= (Initial quantity demanded + New quantity demanded ) ÷ 2

= (210 + 230) ÷ 2

= 220

Percentage change in quantity demanded:

= (New quantity demanded - Initial quantity demanded) ÷ Average quantity demanded

= (230 - 210) ÷ 220

= 0.0909 or 9.09%

Price elasticity of demand:

= Percentage change in quantity demanded ÷ Percentage change in price

= 9.09 ÷ 15.79

= 0.56

Marcus and tony work for lombardo's pipe and concrete. mr. lombardo is preparing an estimate for a customer. he knows that maruc

Lana71 [14]

Given that Marucs lays a slab of concrete in 6 hours and Tony lays the same slab in 4 hours. If both work on the job, the number of hours it will take them to lay the slab is given by:

$\frac{1}{t} = \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{4} \\ \\ = \frac{2+3}{12} = \frac{5}{12} \\ \\ \Rightarrow t= \frac{12}{5} =2.4\ hours$

Given that the cost of labor is $44.00 per hour, therefore, the labor estimate should be 2.4 x 44 = $105.60 per slab.

D.v.g. (a minor) was injured in a one-car auto accident in hoover, alabama. the vehicle was covered by an insurance policy issue

diamong [38]

Answer:

Yes, the court ruled in favor of D.V.G.'s mother, because of the principle that contracts entered by minors are not void, but voidable, and that they do have an effect on the parties, but if voided, they cannot be enforced.

In this case, the minor died before the contract was ratified by the court, but the minor hadn't voided the contract, so it was still good at the moment of his death. The minor had the chance of either approving or rejecting the contract while still living, and decided not to revoke it.

Explanation:

NATIONWIDE MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY and State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company v. Barbara Walker WOOD, as administratrix of the estate of D.V.G., a minor, deceased, and K.C.T., a minor, by and through Earnest T., his father and next friend. 1111486. Decided: February 22, 2013

As this Court has stated, “ ‘[i]t is well settled by the authorities that infants are not liable on any of their contracts, except for necessaries. With the exception, all other contracts of infants, whether executory or executed, may be avoided or ratified at the election of the infant.’ ”

The final ruling was:

"Under Alabama law, an insurance company is bound to a settlement agreement negotiated on behalf of an injured minor, even if that minor dies before the scheduling of the court hearing that all parties agreed was necessary to obtain approval of the settlement agreement. In accordance with the parties' understanding, such a hearing is still required, and the minor's death does not render that hearing impossible. We thus answer in the affirmative the question certified to this Court."

The market price people are willing to pay for a unit of a particular commodity is determined by A. the sum of average and margi

kkurt [141]

People are willing to pay for a unit of a particular commodity is determined by Marginal utility.

Explanation:

Marginal utility (MU) is characterized as the additional utility obtained from the use of one additional unit of a good or service, or the increased use of an increased unit by an entity.

Economists use the idea of marginal utility to assess how much of an item consumers can purchase. Positive marginal utility happens when the consumption of an additional item increases the total utility, while negative marginal utility occurs when the consumption of an additional item reduces the total utility.
