Answer:
b. abandon the production of airplane tires to fully specialize in the production of race car tires and then trade with Company Z for airplane tires.
Explanation:
Company X has a comparative advantage at producing race car tires
Company Z has a comparative advantage at producing airplane tires.
A country (company) has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries (companies).
A company should specialise only in the production of the good for which it has a comparative advantage.
Company X should specialise in producing race car tires and stop producing airplane tires
Company Z should specialise in producing airplane tires and stop producing race car tires

Answer:
-0.523 and inelastic
Explanation:
The computation of the price elasticity of demand using mid point formula is given below:
= (change in quantity demanded ÷ average of quantity demanded) ÷ (percentage change in price ÷ average of quantity demanded)
where,
Change in quantity demanded is
= Q2 - Q1
= 150 units - 200 units
= -50 units
And, average of quantity demanded would be
= (150 units + 200 units ) ÷ 2
= 175 units
Change in price would be
= P2 - P1
= 3,500 - 2,000
= 1,500
And, average of price would be
= (3,500 + 2,000) ÷ 2
= 2750
So, after solving this, the price is -0.523
Since the price elasticity of demand is less than 1 so it would be inelastic
Solution :
Account Estimated Estimated
receivable loss% bad debts
Current 250,000 0.5 1250
1-30 days of past due 90,000 1.0 900
31-60 days of past due 20,000 2.0 400
61-120 days of past due 11,000 5.0 550
121-180 days of past due 6,000 10.0 600
Over 180 days of past due 4,000 25.0 1000
Total account receivable 381,000 4700
a). The amount for the bad debts expense is = 4700 - (4350 - 3830)
= 4180
b). Balance in the accounts receivable
Accounts receivable = 381,000
Less : allowance for bad debts = - 4180
Net realizable value of the accounts receivable = 376,820
c). Bad debts expense
a). 4180
Balance: 4180
The allowance for un-collectible account
Beg. Bal : 4350
write off : 3830
a). 4180
Balance 4700
