Answer:
Gain/loss= $1,000 loss
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Original price= $54,000
Accumulated depreciation= $28,000
Seling price= $25,000
The gain or loss from selling an asset depends on the book value.
Book value= original price - accumulated depreciation
Book value= 54,000 - 28,000= 26,000
If the selling price is higher than the book value, the company gain from the sale.
Gain/loss= 25,000 - 26,000= $1,000 loss
Answer:
The answer is 2.25
Explanation:
Price Elasticity of Supply (PES)= percentage change in Quantity demanded/ percentage change in price
PES= (30-20)/20 *100) /( 55-45)/45*100) = 50%/22.22% = 2.25
Answer:
1. Firms are operating in the short run - relatively inelastic
2. Firms would have a hard time storing their goods - relatively inelastic
3. Firms have a large amount of excess capacity - relatively elastic
4. Firms can easily relocate from one location to another - relatively elastic.
Explanation:
The price elasticity of supply is less in the short run than in the long run. In the short run supplier does not have enough time to adjust the production level so supply is inelastic. The firms facing hard to store their goods then the supply is inelastic. If the firm has spare capacity available then the supply is relatively elastic because supplier can produce more if the demand is greater. The mobility factor also effects elasticity, if firm can easily relocate itself then the supply is elastic.
