Answer:

hill-climbing strategy

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that this would not have been possible if you exclusively employed a hill-climbing strategy.

One year ago, you bought a stock for $62.35 per share. You received a dividend of $1.40 per share last month and sold the stock
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The capital gains yield on this investment is 2.25%

Explanation:

Sale price = 63.75

Purchase price = 62.35

Capital Gain = 63.75 - 62.35 = 1.40

Capital Gain Yield = $1.40 / $62.35

= 0.0225

= 2.25%

The capital gains yield on this investment is 2.25%

Suppose the price for an Lyft ride in Austin, TX decreases from $15 to $12 causing the quantity of rides demanded to increase fr
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Midpoint value of price elasticity of demand = -2.07

Explanation:

We know,

Midpoint value of price elasticity = \frac{(Q_{2} - Q_{1})/[(Q_{2} + Q_{1})/2] }{(P_{2} - P_{1})/[(P_{2} + P_{1})/2] }

Given,

Original Price, P_{1} = $15

New Price, P_{2} = $12

Original Quantity demanded, Q_{1} = 1,000 units

New Quantity demanded, Q_{2} = 1,600 units

Putting the value in the above midpoint formula, we can get

Midpoint value of price elasticity = \frac{(1,600 - 1,000)/[(1,600 + 1,000)/2]}{(12-15)/[(12+15)/2]}

Midpoint value of price elasticity = \frac{600/1,300}{-3/13.5}

Midpoint value of price elasticity = \frac{0.46}{-0.22}

Midpoint value of price elasticity of demand = -2.07
