Answer:

Zumba classes sell all 20 participant spots at a price of $4.50 each. When the instructor raised the prices to $5.50, 10 people attended the class. From the midpoint method, the price elasticity of demand for Zumba is:

0.286

Explanation:

20 at $4.50= $90

10 at $5.50= $55

price elasticity= change in quantity demand/ change in price

20-10= 10 change in quantity demand

$90-$55= $35

10/35=0.286

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

LTCL = $0

Basis = $3,575

Explanation:

January 15, 2018, buy 1,000 shares at $5,100

December 31, 2020, sold 1,000 shares at $4,550

If Ms. Fresh hadn't repurchased the stock in January, she could have reported a long term capital loss of $550. But since she repurchased the 1,000 shares just after selling them, it is considered a wash sale.

So no long term capital loss will be recognized and the basis of the 1,000 stocks = $3,025 + $550 = $3,575

Which of the following statements is TRUE of payback​ period? A. If the payback period is greater than the maximum acceptable pa
Firdavs [7]

Answer:B. If the payback period is less than the maximum acceptable payback​ period, accept the project.

Explanation:

The payback period measures if a capital investment is profitable.

The payback period measures how long it takes to recover the amount invested in a capital project. It calculates how long it takes for the cash flows generated from a capital project to be equal to the cost.

For example if a project costs $10,000. It cash flows in year 1,2,3 and 4 are $5000, $3000, $2000, $6000. The payback period is 3 years. If the company has a maximum acceptable payback period of 2 years, then the company won't take on the project because its payback period is more than the maximum acceptable payback period.

If the company has a maximum acceptable payback period of 4 years, then the company would take on the project because its payback period is less than the maximum acceptable payback period.

anastassius [24]

Answer:

Production= 13,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated inventory (units), June 1 18,500

Desired inventory (units), June 30 19,000

Expected sales volume (units):

Area X 3,000

Area Y 4,000

To calculate the production for the period, we need to use the following formula:

Production= 12,500 + 19,000 - 18,500

Production= 13,000
