Answer: E. while beer is homogeneous, the product is differentiated among the sellers.

Explanation: In a bid to construct specific competitive advantages over competitors, sellers of similar or identical products often differentiate them usually through packaging or branding among others. This is known as product differentiation which when successful, leads to competitive advantage. While the beers are identical since they are produced by the same factory, the different stores may differentiate them in order to prod the consumers into choosing one over the other. As a result, Siyed most likely thinks that while the beer is homogeneous, the product is differentiated among the sellers.

Consider airfares on flights between New York and Minneapolis. When the airfare is $250, the quantity demanded of tickets is 2,0
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

c the price elasticity of demand is about 1.43 and an increase in the airfare will cause airlines' total revenue to decrease.

Explanation:

q1 2,000 p1 250

revenue1 = quantity x price = 2,000x250 = 500,000

q2 1,700 p2 280

revenue2 = 1,700 x 280 = 476,000

<u>Midpoint formula:</u>

E_p\frac{q_1-q_2}{\frac{q_1+q_2}{2}} \div\frac{p_1-p_2}{\frac{p_1+p_2}{2}}

\frac{2,000-1,700}{\frac{2,000+1,700}{2}} \div\frac{250 - 280}{\frac{250 + 280}{2}}

\frac{300}{1850} \div\frac{-30}{265}

Ep = -1.432432432

As the price elasticity is above -1 the decrease in quantity is greater than the decrease in price thus, the revenue of the firm decreases if increase the price.

Carl Carpenter buys a drill press. The price, including tax, is $725.00. He finances the drill press over 24 months after making
Zarrin [17]
First calculate the amount financed
Amount financed=725−50=675

The formula is
I=(2yc)/(m (n+1))
Solve for c to get
C=(I×m×(n+1))/2y
C=(0.14×675×(24+1))÷(2×12)=98.44

Total of payments=675+98.44=773.44

Monthly payment is
773.44÷24=32.23

Hope it helps!
