Answer:
2.77
the bus company should decrease price to increase revenues.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
percentage change in price = 1.21 / 0.99 - 1 = 0.222 = 22%
Percentage change in quantity demanded = 169 / 433 = -0.6097 = - 60.97%
Elasticity of demand = 60.97% / 22% = 2.77
Demand is elastic, so if price in reduced, there would be a rise in quantity demanded that would exceed the rise in price. This would increase revenues
The accounts that will be used to record the disposal of the assets are Gain/loss on sale of asset and Sales Income
<h3>What is a
disposal account?</h3>
A disposal account calculates the gain or loss account that appears in the income statement.
The disposal account records the difference between the disposal proceeds and the net carrying amount of the fixed asset being disposed of.
Hence, the account that will be used to record the disposal of the assets is Gain/loss on sale of asset and Sales Income

D) Checkabe Deposits are assets for the bank
Answer:
Coupon (R) = 6.8% x 10,000 = $680
Face value (FV) = $10,000
Number of times coupon is paid in a year (m) = 2
No of years to maturity = 8 years
Yield to maturity (Kd) = 8% = 0.08
Po = R/2(1- (1 + r/m)-nm) + FV/ (1+r/m)n
m
r/m
Po = 680/2(1-(1+0.08/2)-8x2) + 10,000/(1 + 0.08/2
)8x2
0.08/2
Po = 340(1 - (1 + 0.04)-16) + 10,000/(1 + 0.04)16
0.04
Po = 340(1-0.5339) + 10,000/1.8730
0.04
Po = 3,961.85 + 5,339.03
Po = $9,300.88
Explanation:
The current market price of a bond is a function of the present value of semi-annual coupon and present value of the face value. The present value of semi-annual coupon is obtained by multiplying the coupon by the present value of annuity factor at 8% for 8 years. The present value of face value is obtained by discounting the face value at the discount factor for 8 years. The addition of the two gives the present value of the bond. All these explanations have been captured by the formula.
Answer: Option D
Explanation: In simple words, price elasticity refers to the degree of change in demand of a commodity with respect to change in its price. It generally shows the fact that when the price of a commodity rises the demand for ti decreases due to various phenomenon coming into force such as income effect etc.
The price elasticity is calculated by dividing the change in quantity demanded with the change in price.
