Answer:
A) PED = 1.1
B) demand is elastic
C) Danny's total revenue would decrease
Explanation:
we can calculate the price elasticity of demand using the formula:
PED = % change in quantity demanded / % change in price = [(300 - 250) / 250] / [(2.25 - 2.75) / 2.75] = (50 / 250) / (-0.5 / 2.75) = 0.2 / 0.18 = 1.1
since PED = 1.1, the demand is elastic
if the PED is the same when the price decreases from $2.25 to $1.75, total revenue will :
when price = $2.25, total revenue = $2.25 x 300 = $675
when price = $1.75, total revenue = $1.75 x 373 = $652.75
*a 22.22% decrease in the price will cause a 24.44% increase (= 22.22% x 1.1) in the quantity demanded = 300 units + (300 x 24.44%) = 373.3 ≈ 373 units
Alpha level is a probability value that is used to define the concept of "very unlikely" in a hypothesis. This value determines he boundaries for the critical region, which is composed of the extreme sample values that are very unlikely to be obtained if the null hypothesis is true. Type I error is <span>when a researcher rejects a true null hypothesis.</span>
The relationship between the alpha level, the size of the critical region, and the risk of a type i error is the following: when the alpha level increases, the critical region increases and type I error increases.
Answer:
The firm's cost of preferred stock is 9.10%
Explanation:
The cost of preferred stock with the flotation of 5% would be the dividend payable by the preferred stock divided by the adjusted current market price(adjusted for flotation cost)
The dividend per year is $8
The adjusted price of the stock=$92.50*(1-f)
where f is the flotation cost in percentage terms i.e 5%
adjusted price of the stock is =$92.50*(1-5%)=$ 87.88
Cost of preferred stock=$8/$87.88*100 = 9.10%
A hypothesis is a educated guess made about the predicted outcome of the experiment. They are made before starting the scientific experiment.
