Answer: in the inelastic portion of the demand curve

Explanation:

Remaining part of the question is:

.. in the inelastic portion of the demand curve, the elastic portion of the demand curve, or the unit elastic portion?

Elasticity measures how much quantity demand changes in response to a change in price.

An inelastic demand means that when prices change, demand does not change as much. You can therefore increase prices with a good that has inelastic demand and still expect close to the same demand.

If the city wants to raise as much revenue as possible from the tolls, they should increase prices on the inelastic portion. Because it is inelastic, the demand will remain close to the same which would increase revenue as the same number of people are paying higher.

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Total amount= $12,558.68

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Every three months, she deposits $550 in her bank account, which earns 8 percent annually but is compounded quarterly Four years later, she used the entire balance in her bank account to invest in an investment at 7 percent annually.

First, we need to calculate the total accumulated money after four years with the following formula.

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= deposit= 550

N= 16

i=0.08/4= 0.02

FV= {550*[(1.02^16)-1]}/0.02= 10,251.61

Now, we calculate the second investment:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n= 10,251.62*(1.07^3)= $12,558.68

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: B. $892.1 million

Explanation:

The Revenue was $939,393 million

When calculating how much cash was generated any increase to the Accounts Receivables is removed from the revenue because it signifies that more sales were made on credit and so have not given the business cash yet.

Any increase in Deferred Revenue must be added because this is Cash that has been given to the business but for accrual purposes cannot be recognized yet. Bottomline however, the Cash has been received.

Increase in Receivables = 309,196 - 221,504

= $87,692 million

Increase in Deferred Revenue= 374,730 - 334,358

= $40,372 million

The Cash generated is therefore;

= 939,393 - 87,692 + 40,372

= $892,073

= $892.1 million

I have attached the Financial Statements of Acme Corporation.

yuradex [85]

Answer:

$1.49 per share

Explanation:

The calculation of diluted earnings per share is given below:-

Diluted shares outstanding= $200,000 + 12,000 × ($36 - $30) ÷ 36

= $200,000 + 12,000 × 6 ÷ 36

= $200,000 + 2,000

= $202,000

Diluted earnings per share = Net income ÷ Diluted shares outstanding

= $300,000 ÷ $202,000

= $1.49 per share

Therefore for computing the diluted earnings per share we simply divide the net income by diluted shares outstanding.
