Answer:

Explanation:
Price elasticity measures the responsiveness of the quantity demanded or supplied of a good to a change in its price. It is computed as the percentage change in quantity demanded—or supplied—divided by the percentage change in price.
Elasticity can be described as elastic—or very responsive—unit elastic, or inelastic—not very responsive.
Elastic demand or supply curves indicate that the quantity demanded or supplied responds to price changes in a greater than proportional manner.
An inelastic demand or supply curve is one where a given percentage change in price will cause a smaller percentage change in quantity demanded or supplied.
Unitary elasticity means that a given percentage change in price leads to an equal percentage change in quantity demanded or supplied.
Answer:
The amount of cash required for payment within the discount period is $14454.
Explanation:
The account payables were due for 16800 after the purchase. When thegoods are returned, the accounts receivables fall by 2200 and the new balance becomes 16800 - 2200 = $14600.
The discount term states that if payment is made within the next 10 days of purchase, a 1% discount can be availed (1/10).
If the payment is made in discount period then discount received will be,
Discount received = 14600 *1% = $146
The cash required for payment will be 14600 - 146 = $14454
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
a) The In-house purchasing cost last year is
= Fixed costs + Variable costs
=$85,000 + Total number of purchase orders × cost per order
= $85,000 + 1400 × 15
= $106,000
b)
The outsourcing cost is
Outsourcing cost = Fixed costs +Variable costs
= $100,000 + Total number of purchase orders × cost per order
= $100,000 + 1400 × 5
= $107,000
c) Total number of purchase orders = 1600
In-house purchasing cost = 85,000 + 1600 × $15 = $109000
Outsourcing cost = $100,000 + 1600 × $5 = $108000
Yes, David should outsource as the outsourcing cost is less than the in-house purchasing cost.
