Answer:

. Inelastic demand, inelastic supply. 

Explanation:

If demand is inelastic, a small change in price has little or no effect on the quantity demanded.

If supply is inelastic, a small change in price has little or no effect on the quantity supplied.

Government tax increases the cost of a good. If tax is levied on a good and both demand and supply are inelastic, government revenue would increase and be the highest when compared to the other options.

Demand is elastic when a change in price has a greater effect on the quantity demanded.

Supply is elastic if a small change in price has a greater effect on the quantity supplied.

If demand or supply is elastic and government imooses tax, revenue would fall as quantity demanded would fall.

Answer:

Total incremental net income = $28,000

Incremental per gallon increase in net income = $0.70 per unit

Explanation:

a. The preparation of incremental statement to find out the increase in net income

Total production                                  $140,000

Less:

Incremental cost

Direct material              $68,000

($1.70 × 40,000 gallons)

Direct labor                  $24,000

($0.60 × 40,000 gallons)

Variable manufacturing

overhead                     $20,000

($0.50 × 40,000 gallons)

Total incremental cost                      ($112,000)

Total incremental net income          $28,000

b. Incremental per gallon increase in net income = Total incremental net income ÷ Total quantity

= $28,000 ÷ 40,000 gallons

= $0.70 per unit

Therefore the total incremental net income is $28,000 and incremental per gallon increase in net income is $0.70 per unit.

Worldwide quarterly sales of a brand of cell phones were approximately q = −p + 136 million phones when the wholesale price was
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$51

Explanation:

Data provided:

Sales function as: ( q = −p + 136 ) million phones

here, p is price in dollars

a) supply function as: ( q = 9p - 374 ) million phones

now,

for equilibrium price, the supply should be equal to the sales

i.e

−p + 136 = 9p - 374

or

136 + 374 = 9p + p

or

10p = 510

or

p = $51

Hence, the equilibrium price should be $51
