Answer:
Explanation:
Provided that the demand is inelastic, there would be an increment in revenue.
Total revenue is calculated as the quantity of a good sold multiplied by its price.
There is a close interrelation between price elasticity of demand and total revenue, in the sense that they deal with the same two variables - which are price and quantity.
If the product has an elastic demand, revenue can be increased by decreasing the price of the good. Q will increase at a greater rate, while P will decrease, thereby, increasing the total revenue.
If the product has an inelastic demand, then the prices of goods can be increased and sold slightly less of that item but a higher revenue must be obtained.
Answer:
The CPI for the given year is 123.
Explanation:
Consumer price index (CPI)
In the base year, the typical family bought 4 loaves of bread at $2 per loaf and 2 bottles of wine for $ 9 per bottle.
Cost at base year =$[(4×2)+(2×9)]
=$26
In a given year, bread cost $3 per loaf and wine cost $10 per bottle.
Cost at given year =$[(4×3)+(2×10)]
=$32
The CPI for the given year is
≈123
