The publisher of an economics textbook finds that, when the book's price is lowered from $70 to $60, sales rise from 10,000 to 1

ankoles [38]

Answer:

Price elasticity of demand = 2.6

Explanation:

Given:

Old price (P0) = $70

New price (P1) = $60

Old sales (Q0) = 10,000 units

New sales (Q1) = 15,000 units

Computation of Price elasticity of demand(e):

Midpoint method

$e=\frac{\frac{Q1-Q0}{\frac{Q1+Q0}{2} } }{\frac{P1-P0}{\frac{P1+P0}{2} } }$

By putting the value:

$e=\frac{\frac{10,000-15,000}{\frac{10,000+15,000}{2} } }{\frac{60-70}{\frac{60+70}{2} } }\\e=\frac{\frac{-5,000}{\frac{25,000}{2} } }{\frac{-10}{\frac{130}{2} } }\\$

$e=\frac{\frac{-5,000}{12,500} }{\frac{-10}{65} }$

e = 2.6

Gilberto's Performance Pizza is a small restaurant in Chicago that sells gluten-free pizzas. Gilberto's very tiny kitchen has ba

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

However, Gilberto's decision regarding how many workers to use can vary from week to week because his workers tend to be students. Each Monday, Gilberto lets them know how many workers he needs for each day of the week. In the short run, these workers are VARIABLE inputs, and the ovens FIXED inputs.

Explanation:

In the long run, all inputs are variable. E.g. in 5 years Gilberto might build his own pizza place and he will be able to make the kitchen as large as he wants.

But in the short run, some inputs are variable because they can be changed immediately, e.g. the number of workers changes on a weekly basis. While other inputs are fixed, and cannot be changed, e.g. Gilberto has a two yer lease contract for the ovens, so he will continue to use these ovens until the lease expires (in 2 years).

The long run and short doesn't depend on time, but on the ability of being able to change the inputs consumed by a business. The long run might represent 10 years for a company that signed a 10 year lease contract.

"You plan on saving money for retirement in 30 years (t=30) at which time, you wish to have saved $1,000,000. In order to do thi

MissTica

Answer:

X= $15,692.9393

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Number of years= 30

Final value= 1,000,000

First, deposit $10000 for ten years (last deposit at t=10).

After ten years, you deposit X for 20 years until t=30.

i= 6%

First, we need to calculate the final value in t=10. We are going to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^t-1]}/i

FV= {10000*[(1.06^10)-1]}/0.06= $131807.9494

We can calculate the amount of money to input every year. We need to isolate A:

A= (FV*i)/[(1+i)^n-1]

First, we need to calculate the final value of the $131807.9494

FV= PV*[(1+i)^n]

FV= 131807.9494*1.06)^20= 422725.95

We need (1000000-4227725.95) $577274.05 to reache $1000000

A= (FV*i)/[(1+i)^n-1]

A= (577274.05*0.06)/[(1.06^20)-1]= 15692.9393

X= $15,692.9393
