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

zysi [14]

Any type of government-funded program, such as health care, social assistance, unemployment benefits, payments to banks, and national military, can have an impact on government spending.

What is government?

The term "Government" is legal authority or system which is controlled by office, public sector, country and state.

The government's main objectives are to increase the macroeconomic supply side, which includes spending on things like education, health care, and training to increase labor productivity as well as providing subsidies to help people financially.

Government spending has a negative impact on the economy because it drives inflation by raising living expenses through subsidies. Demand is artificially raised by government subsidies.

As a result, factors including health, social services, unemployment benefits, etc. may have an impact on government spending.

Answer:

The Net Present Value is - $20324

Explanation:    

We can use our financial calculator to work out the NPV using the cashflows from the different periods and using the discount rate given. Which is 18%.

We have 11 periods. Starting off with CF 0. ( CF = cashflow ) We will work in Thousands to make it easier to read and compute. $ ' 000

CF 0 Machine Investment (750) Working Capital Investment (25) Total=(775)

CF 1 160 inflow

CF 2 160 inflow

CF 3 160 inflow

CF 4 160 inflow

CF 5 160 inflow

CF 6 160 inflow

CF 7 160 inflow

CF 8 160 inflow

CF 9 160 inflow

CF 10 160 inflow

CF 11 160 inflow. 35 salvage value from machine. Working capital 25. Total Cashlow = 220

We now use our financial calculator and input these amounts into the calculator.

We start of by entering the data and hitting ENT and do so for every Cash flow. At the end we press 2nd function CFI on our calculator. We then enter the discount rate of 18%. and press down button to get to NPV and then press COMP.

We get an answer of -20,32400407

We now need to put the amount into thousands. Thus = -20324,004

rounded to the nearest dollar we get - $ 20324

Olenka [21]

be indifferent between the two meals

Explanation:

Marginal utility is the additional satisfaction received from consuming an additional unit of a good or service. Marginal utility is the additional utility derived from consuming one more unit of a good. the consumption decision is to consume more units of a good that gives the higher utility per good.

Marginal utility per good = marginal utility / price of the good

Whopper combo meal = 15 / 3 = 5

a meal at the Embassy Suites = 145 / 29 = 5

both meals have the same marginal utility of 5. She would be indifferent between consuming the two meals
