Suppose the elasticity of demand for your parking lot spaces, which are located in a downtown business district, is –1.8, and th

e price of parking is $11 per day. Additionally, suppose that your MC is zero, and your capacity has been 80% full at 9 AM each day over the last month.Since demand is ( ELASTIC, INELASTIC, OR UNIT ELASTIC) , and the lot is below capacity, (INCREASED, DECREASED, OR UNCHANGED) is the optimal pricing strategy.

Answer:

Elastic

DECREASED

Explanation:

The price elasticity is elastic. Demand is price elastic if the absolute value of coefficient of elasticity is greater than 1.

When demand is elastic, it means that quantity demanded is sensitive to changes in price. A small change in price would lead to a greater change in quantity demanded.

Because the parking lot has been operating below its full capacity and marginal cost is zero, the optimal strategy is to reduce price so that quantity demanded would increase.

The Harleysville Manufacturing Shop produces motorcycle parts. Typically, 10 pieces out of a job lot of 1,000 parts are spoiled.
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

B

Materials Control $ 250

Manufacturing Overhead Control $1,000

              Work-in-Process Control $1,250

Explanation:

spoilage rate: 10/1000 = 0.01=1%

the job requires 2,500 goods parts

total part required (considering spoilage)

\frac{requirement}{1-spolage} =$total needs

2,500 /(1-0.01) = 2500/ 0.99 = 2525.2525 = 2525

2525-2500 = 25 spoilage part

<u>Note:</u>

in this case you may think you can simple do 2,500 x 0.01

But if the spoilage rate is high or the amount of high is, then you will have an answer different than the correct method. Stick to the formula given.

25 part x 50 = 1,250

From the work in process, we will subtract this value, we will increase the spoilage materials inventory and charge the diference as actual overhead.

b.

Materials Control $ 250

Manufacturing Overhead Control $1,000

              Work-in-Process Control $1,250

New corporate bond issues in excess of $50,000,000 are:________.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer: C. II and III

Explanation:

Under the Security Act of 1933, new corporate bond issues of such high amounts are not exempt from the Act and so need to be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Also, as the amount exceeds $50,000,000, the issue is subject to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 which states that the issuer should include certain protective provisions that are recommended by the SEC in order to protect bondholders. The adherence to these covenants will then be monitored by an independent trustee that is to be appointed by the Issuer.
