Answer:
B
Explanation:
Variable costs are incurred only when a boat is manufactured such as material and direct labor. Thus variable costs will remain unchanged since it will costs the exact same amount to manufacture another identical boat. If it costs $4,000 in material and direct labor to manufacture boat A it will cost $4,000 to manufacture boat B. Fixed costs are sunk costs that will be incurred whether they manufacture 800 or 1,000 boats per year. The rent and admin costs will remain unchanged no matter how many boats are manufactured. But the fixed cost per boat will change. The total fixed costs are $80,000 (800 boats x $1,000 per boat fixed cost). If the manufacturing rate is increased to 1,000 boats per year, the per boat fixed cost will decrease to $800. Fixed costs remain at $80,000/1,000 boats = $800.
Answer:
0.60
Explanation:
The midpoint formula is used to calculate elasticity by using average percentage in both price and quantity.
The formula is given below:
Percentage change in quantity =<u> (Q2 -Q1) </u> x 100
(Q2 + Q1) / 2
Percentage change in price = <u> (P2 -P1) </u> x 100
(P2 + P1) / 2
Elasticity =<u> Percentage change in price__</u>
Percentage change in quantity
Inserting the data:
Percentage change in quantity =<u> (30 -20) </u> x 100 = <u>10</u> x 100 = 40%
(30 + 20) /2 25
Percentage change in price = <u>($20 - $10)</u> x 100 = <u>10</u> x 100 = 66.6%
($20 + $10) /2 15
Elasticity of supply = <u>40%</u>
66.6%
= 0.60
The answer is: coupon clip from a newspaper.
The rest of the choices are not advantageous for the consumers. A sales tax is a portion of the company's sales deducted. For compensation, the company may increase their prices.
