Answer:
2.77
the bus company should decrease price to increase revenues.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
percentage change in price = 1.21 / 0.99 - 1 = 0.222 = 22%
Percentage change in quantity demanded = 169 / 433 = -0.6097 = - 60.97%
Elasticity of demand = 60.97% / 22% = 2.77
Demand is elastic, so if price in reduced, there would be a rise in quantity demanded that would exceed the rise in price. This would increase revenues

Double entry, a fundamental concept underlying present-day bookkeeping and accounting, states that every financial transaction has equal and opposite effects in at least two different accounts. It is used to satisfy the accounting equation:
Assets
=
Liabilities
+
Equity
Assets=Liabilities+Equity
With a double entry system, credits are offset by debits in a general ledger or T-account.
So debit is the answer
Answer:
It increased the depth of their product mix.
The depth of the product mix is basically how many different types of variations of the same product are offered, e.g. Coke, Diet Coke, Coke Zero, etc. Increasing product depth involves new flavors, different package sizes or other specific characteristics regarding the product.
Product width refers to the different types of products offered by the company, e.g. Toyota offers sedans, trucks, SUVs, minivans. In this case, product width is not affected.
Given the following parameters:
The employer pays the employee (gross earnings) – $1,200
The employer pays for social security and medicare taxes – $91.80
The employer pays for the Federal
Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA) – $9.60
The employer pays for the State
Unemployment Tax Act (SUTA) – $64.80
The total cost of this employee to the employer is the summation of all these costs
1,200 + 91.80 + 9.60 + 64.80 = $1366.20
