Answer:

B. 16.3 percent

Explanation:

The consumer price index in year 1 = 123

The consumer price index in year 2  =143

Now we have given two years consumer price index and from this information, we are required to find the percentage change in the consumer price index. Below is the formula to find the percentage change.

Percentage change in CPI = (Year 2 CPI – Year 1 CPI) / Year 1 CPI

Percentage change in CPI = (143 – 123 ) / 123

Percentage change in CPI = 0.1626 or 16.3%

Thus, Option “b” 16.3 Percent is correct.

Recall the text’s definition of diminishing marginal utility: "the common pattern that each marginal unit of a good consumed pro
son4ous [18]

<u>Explanation:</u>

Note, the term diminishing marginal utility refers to an economic principle that states that the more unit of a particular commodity or service we consume, the more the satisfaction (utility) derived out of the consumption reduces or diminishes.

For instance, if I watched movies produced by a particular entertainment company for several days (eg Disney Studios), I may become dissatisfied using this particular entertainment provider and may decide to try another service (Netflix).

Another instance could occur after exercising, I'm given 3 bottles of coke, after taking my first bottle, the amount of utility I derive would reduce until I get to the third bottle, at this point I've reached my peak.

The law of diminishing marginal utility failed for someone I know who had used the same type of toothpaste and brushed her teeth at least once a day for a period of over 10 years.

26   32   40   27    30

26  26  29  34.5  30.75

week 2 forecast

26x0.5 + 26x0.5 = 26.

week 3 forecast

32x0.5 + 26x0.5 = 29

use the same procedure for week 4 and week 5

week 6

30x0.5 + 30.75x0.5 = 30.375

Demand Forecast for week 6 = 30.38
