Dow Jones Industrial Average on May 30, 2017:

According to valueline.com, the Dow Jones Industrial Average on May 30, 2917 closed at 21029.47 Down 50.81.

Closing index = 21029.47

plus down movement =50.81

Opening index = 21080.28

This implies that the opening price was 21080.28.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average measures the stock performance of 30 large companies listed on stock exchanges in the United States. It is a stock price index. Others are the S&P 500 Index and the NASDAQ.

The opening index represents the day's beginning average price before trading started. During trading, the price must have seen variations, up and down movements. But, at the end of the day's trading, the closing price was reported to be 21029.47 Down 50.81.

From this closing index report, one can infer by adding back, that the opening price was above the closing price by 50.81 or about 51 basis point.

Answer: A. the 99 principle

Explanation:

This strategy, often called "charm pricing," involves using pricing that ends in "9" and "99."

With charm pricing, the left digit is reduced from a round number by one cent. We come across this technique every time we make purchases but don’t pay attention. For example, your brain processes $3.00 and $2.99 as different values: To your brain $2.99 is $2.00, which is cheaper than $3.00.

How is this technique effective? It all boils down to how a brand converts numerical values. In 2005, Thomas and Morwitz conducted research they called "the left-digit effect in price cognition." They explained that, “Nine-ending prices will be perceived to be smaller than a price one cent higher if the left-most digit changes to a lower level (e.g., $3.00 to $2.99), but not if the left-most digit remains unchanged (e.g., $3.60 to $3.59).”

Suppose a movie theater determines it can charge different prices to patrons who go to weekday matinees and people who attend ev

bija089 [108]

Answer:

increase the price of weekend and evening tickets

decrease the price of matinee tickets

Explanation:

If the price elasticity of demand is elastic, a small change in the price of movie tickets will cause a larger change in the quantity demanded. If the price elasticity of demand is inelastic, a large change in the price will cause a small change in the quantity demanded.

If the PED for weekend and evening patrons is inelastic, then the movie theater should increase the price of the weekend and evening tickets in order to increase total revenue. In this case, a 10% increase in price will result in a 5% decrease in sold tickets.

If the PED for matinee patrons is elastic, then the movie theater should decrease the price of the matinee tickets in order to increase total revenue. In this case, a 10% decrease in price will result in a 17% increase in sold tickets.
