Answer:

7.47 years

Explanation:

Payback period calculates the amount of the time it takes to recover the amount invested in a project from its cumulative cash flows.

= amount invested / cash flows

To derive cash flow: (S - C - D) x (1 - t) + D

S = sales = $16,100

C = Cost of goods sold = $7,900

D = deprecation = $4,100

T = tax = 40%

$16,100 - $7,900 - $4,100 = $4100

$4100 × 0.6 = $2460

$2460 + $4,100 = $6560

$49,000 / $6560 = 7.47 years

I hope my answer helps you

Cindyliz is wrong in this situation

Both Cindyliz and The Hutch Fashions did not signed any contract that specify the obligation that The Hutch Fashions need to sell  a certain type of product to Cindyliz. She just obtained a summer catalogue, not a purchase order.  A catalogue only filled with list of product information that company sold.

Suppose the price for an Lyft ride in Austin, TX decreases from $15 to $12 causing the quantity of rides demanded to increase fr
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Midpoint value of price elasticity of demand = -2.07

Explanation:

We know,

Midpoint value of price elasticity = \frac{(Q_{2} - Q_{1})/[(Q_{2} + Q_{1})/2] }{(P_{2} - P_{1})/[(P_{2} + P_{1})/2] }

Given,

Original Price, P_{1} = $15

New Price, P_{2} = $12

Original Quantity demanded, Q_{1} = 1,000 units

New Quantity demanded, Q_{2} = 1,600 units

Putting the value in the above midpoint formula, we can get

Midpoint value of price elasticity = \frac{(1,600 - 1,000)/[(1,600 + 1,000)/2]}{(12-15)/[(12+15)/2]}

Midpoint value of price elasticity = \frac{600/1,300}{-3/13.5}

Midpoint value of price elasticity = \frac{0.46}{-0.22}

Midpoint value of price elasticity of demand = -2.07

Can someone explain the relationship between consumer expectations and economic performance?
maks197457 [2]
If a consumer believes that the price of the good will be higher in the future he is more likely to purchase the good now. If the consumer expects that her income will be higher in the future the consumer may buy the good now. In other words positive expectations about future income may encourage present consumption.
