Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

O zero

Explanation:

Elasticity of demand is defined as the rate of change of quantity of a good demanded with change in price.

Commodities with low elasticity change a little with change in price, while those with high elasticity have a large change with change in price.

The formula for price elasticity is

Elasticity of demand = (% change in quantity demanded) ÷ (% change in price)

Assume the demand is 10 units

Elasticity of demand = ({10 - 10} ÷ 10 * 100) ÷ ({8 - 10} ÷ 10 * 100)

Elasticity of demand = (0) ÷ (-20)

Elasticity of demand = 0

Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

PED = 0

Explanation:

The PED or price elasticity of demand is a measure to track and determine the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the commodity. The PED is calculated using the following formula,

PED = % Change in Quantity demanded / % Change in Price

or

PED = [( Q1 - Q0 ) / Q0]  /  [( P1 - P0 ) / P0]

Lets assume that at price 10 the quantity demanded was also 10 and when price decreased to 8, the quantity demanded remained the same i.e. 10

So,

PED = [( 10 - 10 ) / 10]  /  [( 8 - 10 ) / 10]

PED = 0

Thus, the price elasticity of demand is zero.

Crane uses the periodic inventory system. For the current month, the beginning inventory consisted of 7400 units that cost $11.00 each. During the month, the company made two purchases: 3100 units at $12.00 each and 12200 units at $12.50 each. Crane also sold 12700 units during the month. Using the average cost method, what is the amount of cost of goods sold for the month

Answers

Answer:

$151,673

Explanation:

Average cost method calculate the cost of the inventory on the average price basis. Cost of goods sold is the cost of the goods sold in the given period.

Description                   Units       Rate                   Value    

Beginning Inventory     7,400    $11.00                 $81,400

Purchases                     3,100     $12.00                $37,200

Purchases                     12,200   $12.50               $152,500

Total  Inventory            22,700   $11.94273128    $271,100

Sale                               12,700    $11.94273128    $151,673

Cost of Goods Sold = $271,100 x 12,700 / 22,700 = $151,673

A product normally sells for $200 per unit. A special price of $180 is offered for the export market. The variable production cost is $160 per unit. An additional export tariff of 10% of revenue must be paid for all export products. What is incremental net income per unit from accepting this special order?

Answers

Answer:

Effect on income= $2 increase per unit

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

A special price of $180 is offered for the export market. The variable production cost is $160 per unit. An additional export tariff of 10% of revenue must be paid for all export products.

We need to calculate the effect on income using the following formula:

Effect on income= sales - unitary variable costs

Effect on income= 180 - (160 + 180*0.1)= $2 increase per unit

On June 1, 2014, Siebens Enterprises loaned $27,000 to Tyler Company for one year at 8 percent interest. Under the terms of the promissory note, Tyler will repay the principal and pay one year's interest on May 31, 2015. Related to this note receivable, what amount of interest income would Siebens report on its 2014 income statement? (Round your final answer to the nearest whole dollar amount.)

Answers

Answer:

$1,260

Explanation:

The computation of amount of interest income is shown below:-

Principal                                    $27,000

Rate of interest                          8%

Interest for 7 month in 2014     $1,260

($27,000 × 8% × 7 ÷ 12)

Interest for 5 months in 2015   $900

( $27,000 × 8% × 5 ÷ 12)

12 months from 1 June 2014  

to 31 may 2015                            12 months

Interest                                         $2,160

($27,000 × 8%)

T will repay the principal and one year interest  

on may 31, 2015

($20,000 + $2,160)                        $22,160

So, Interest income to be reported on its 2014 income statement is $1,260
