Answer:
Firm X is facing low elasticity of demand at its current level of output.
Explanation:
This is why Firm X is able to set such a high price of $24/unit when its marginal cost is $5/unit.

Explanation:
Though the International Accounting Standard IAS 2 Inventories says that the inventory must be recorded at lower of:
- Cost
- Net Realizable Value (Fair Value less Cost to Sell)
This means though the Net realizable value increases but the cost remains the lower. This means their must not be any changes made to inventory account.
The profit earned from the increase in inventory value will be reflected in the income which will increase the net worth of the investment. So the increase in investment revenue would be by $100,000.
