Answer: The supply of vegetables has shifted to the left along an inelastic demand curve
Explanation: The quantity of vegetables sold has been reduced by 20 percent, which simply means the aggregate market supply curve has experienced a drop/decrease and that is usually indicated by a complete shift of the supply curve to the left.
Furthermore, we can determine easily if the demand is elastic or inelastic, since the question has stated the percentage change in quantity demanded as 20% and the percentage change in price as 30%.
The coefficient of elasticity is calculated as
E = %change in quantity demanded/%change in price
E = 20/30
E =0.66
Since the coefficient of elasticity is less than 1, then it means demand is inelastic.
Answer:
The below statement marks the company's vision.
In a period of 10 years, he states that the foundation envisions a broad and impartial society that respects and encourages children and actively enables people’s participation.

Answer:
Cherry Jalopies, Inc.:
mean = (0.22 + 0.11 - 0.04 + 0.06 + 0.09) / 5 = 0.52 / 5 = 0.104
variance = [(0.22 - 0.104)² + (0.11 - 0.104)² + (-0.04 - 0.104)² + (0.06 - 0.104)² + (0.09 - 0.104)²] / 5 = (0.013456 + 0.000036 + 0.020736 + 0.001936 + 0.000196) / 5 = 0.007272
standard deviation = √0.007272 = 0.085276 = 8.53%
Straw Construction Company:
mean = (0.16 + 0.23 - 0.01 + 0.01 + 0.17) / 5 = 0.56 / 5 = 0.112
variance = [(0.16 - 0.112)² + (0.23 - 0.112)² + (-0.01 - 0.112)² + (0.01 - 0.112)² + (0.17 - 0.112)²] / 5 = (0.002304 + 0.013924 + 0.014884 + 0.010404 + 0.003364) / 5 = 0.008976
standard deviation = √0.008976 = 0.09474 = 9.47%
Answer:
True
Explanation:
LIFO is in fact, only allowed to be used in the United States, because under the new IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards), the used of LIFO has been prohibited.
The reason for this, is that LIFO inflates the value of inventory, because the (usually) lower cost of old inventory is what is reported.
This is why companies using LIFO are obliged to report the hypothetical value of the inventories had they used FIFO.
