Answer:

Urgency / Postponement leads to customer inelastic demand of ice melt.

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand is responsive change in demand of good, due to change in price. Formula = % change in demand / % change in price

Factors Affecting Price Elasticity of Demand : Nature of commodity, Income, substitutes availability, time period, urgency / postponement, share in total expenditure,

Inelastic Demand is when demand responds proportionately less to price change. % change in demand < % change in price

Case 'Customer critically needs ice melt to drive to work' : This has inelastic demand i.e demand less respondent to price changes (he will buy that at high price too). Such because of the urgency of this demand & less scope of its postponement.

It is important for modern firms to build and maintain ______ by conducting ethical and transparent transactions.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

The singular thing which is important for modern firms to build and maintain by conducting ethical and transparent transactions is:

  • Consumer trust

<h3>What is Consumer Trust?</h3>

This refers to the belief which a customer has in a particular business, usually because of its ethical and transparent practises.

Answer:

The correct answer is C. marginal revenue exceeds his marginal cost.

Explanation:

The income obtained from the marginal unit (marginal income IM) is equal to the cost of producing the marginal unit (marginal cost CM). The income obtained from the marginal unit (marginal income IM) is equal to the cost of producing the marginal unit (marginal cost CM). Remember that marginal Income is the change in total income for each additional amount sold IM, and the marginal cost is the cost of producing an additional unit of the good.

The marginal cost and the marginal income are equalized, which implies that the profits are maximum.

So we can say that:

  1. If the marginal revenue exceeds the marginal cost, the company must increase production.
  2. If the marginal income is less than the marginal cost, production should be reduced.
  3. If the marginal income is equal to the marginal cost, the company is maximizing its profits and should not change its production
