Answer:

Explanation:

Price elasticity = Percentage change in demand/Percentage change in Price

Percentage change in Q= 513-236=277/513x100 = 53.99%

Percentage change in P= 0.89-0.67= 0.22/0.67x100 = 32.83%

Ed=53.99/32.83 = 1.6

Since the price elasticity of demand is elastic so the company should decrease the price to increase revenu

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

36.83 years

16.85 years

$63,710.88

$ 71,490.43  

Explanation:

We can use the nper  formula in excel  to compute the doubling time for the capital real GDP of both countries

=nper(rate,pmt,-pv,fv)

FV is the future real GDP which $28,900*2=$57,800 for France while that of Korea is $25,400 ($12,700*2)

PV is the present real GDP

rate is the economic growth rate of 4.2% in Korea and 1.9% in France

France=nper(1.9%,0,-28900,57800)= 36.83  

Korea=nper(4.2%,0,-12700,25400)= 16.85  

In 2045 ,which is 42 years from now the real GDP are shown thus:

=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)=fv(1.9%,42,0,-28900)=$63,710.88  

=fv(rate,nper,pmt,-pv)=fv(4.2%,42,0,-12700)=$ 71,490.43
