Answer:

0.54

Explanation:

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

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

Midpoint change in quantity demanded = change in quantity demanded / average of both demands

change in quantity demanded  = 100 - 95 = 5

average of both demands = (100 + 95) / 2 = 97.5

Midpoint change in quantity demanded = 5 / 97.5 = 0.051282

midpoint change in price = change in price / average of both price

change in price = $11 - $10 = 1

average of both price = ($11 + $10) / 2 = 10.5

midpoint change in price = 1 / 10.5 = 0.095238

Price elasticity of demand =  0.051282 / 0.095238 = 0.54

Answer: $690,044

Explanation:

First calculate WACC.

Total capital = 10 + 8 = $18 million

WACC = (Weight of debt * after-tax cost of debt) + (weight of equity * cost of equity)

= (8/18 * 3%) + (10/18 * 15%)

= 9.67%

Using the WACC, find the present value of the cashflows for the next 5 years. This will be an annuity.

= 180,500 * (1 - (1 + r) ^-n)/r

= 180,500 * ( 1 - ( 1 + 9.67%) ^ -5)/9.67%

= $690,044.67

= $690,044

They should pay no more than this present value.

Ira Lisetskai [31]
The budget is $4,240.

There are 164 kittens and 24 puppies.
Let
x = amount spent on each kitten
y =  amount spent on each puppy.

The cost for each puppy is twice a much as that for a kitten. Therefore
y = 2x                  (1)

The available amount is $4,240, therefore
164x + 24y = 4240          (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
164x + 24(2x) = 4240
212x = 4240
x = $20
y = 2x = $40

Answer: $40 for each puppy.
