Answer:

67%

Test for 2 Independent means

Explanation:

Given that:

Average Female earning per week in sample = $346.98

Average Male earning per week in sample = $517.70

Female earning in percent of male earning :

(Female earning / male earning) × 100%

(346.98 / 517.70) * 100%

0.6702337 * 100%

67.02%

= 67%

Testing whether or not the difference in weekly earning by males and female can be conducted by testing the difference in sample means of both males and females by taking the two different samples as being independent.

Usually :

Null hypothesis : H0 : m1 - m2 = 0

Alternative hypothesis : H1 : m1 - m2 ≠ 0

To conduct an experiment, a movie theater increased movie ticket prices from $9 to $10 and measured the change in ticket sales.
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

RELATIVELY INELASTIC

more elastic

less

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.

Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price  

If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.  

Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one

Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded

If demand is relatively inelastic and price increases, there would be little or no change in the quantity demanded and as a result, total revenue would increase

If demand were elastic and prices were increased, quantity demanded would fall more than the increase in price. As a result, total revenue would fall

In the long run, people have more time to search for suitable alternatives. Thus, demand tends to be more elastic in the long run

If the long run, price is increased, the total quantity demanded would fall and revenue would fall

The difference between a divine command view and authoritarian view is that the authority figure is different. true or false?
taurus [48]

The difference between a divine command view and authoritarian view is that the authority figure is different-Yes the statement holds true

Explanation:

<u>In a Divine Command of View</u>

we often come across statement like -"I would do what God or the scriptures say is right'

As per this point of view the  right and wrong are determined by a supernatural supreme being, whose will we discern from sacred texts and divinely inspired messengers.

<u>Authoritarian View</u>

An example of Authoritarian view is sentence like " I would follow the advise of an authority"

According to this view  the  right and wrong is decided by the authorities.The power of taking decision rest in the hands of a particular authority.

Downside of this view is that : authorities do not always reflect wisdom and not all authorities agree.

As you can see that the difference between the two view point is the authority figure.So the answer is True

Zanzabum

Answer:

The number of units that must be sold is A. 6,540 units

Explanation:

The number of units must be sold to meet the target profit figure are calculated by using following formula:

The number of units must be sold = (Total fixed cost + Targeted profit) / Contribution margin per unit.

Contribution margin per unit = Sales price per unit – Variable cost per unit = $154 - $99 = $55

The number of units must be sold = ($313,500 + $46,200)/$55 = 6,540 units

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

The current ratio is 1.18 times

Explanation:

Current Ratio: The current ratio is that ratio which shows a relationship between the current assets and the current liabilities

The computation of the current ratio is shown below

Current ratio = Total Current assets ÷ total current liabilities

where,

Total current assets = Cash + short-term investments + net accounts receivable + merchandise inventory

=  $43,500 + $27,000 + $102,000 + $125,000

= $297,500

And, the total current liabilities is $251,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the ratio would equal to

= $297,500 ÷ $251,000

= 1.18 times

The long term note payable is not a current liabilities,hence it is not considered in the computation part.
