lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The elasticity of Diet Pepsi rose, and its ability to raise revenues through price increases fell.

Explanation:

When a good has very close substitutes, like Diet Pepsi does with respect to Diet Coke, said good has a elastic price elasticity of demand, because the quantity demanded of it falls proportionally more than an increase in price since consumers turn to the substitute good when said good becomes more expensive.

If the price of Diet Pepsi rises, people can simply buy Diet Coke, potentially reducing revenue for Pepsi even more, despite the price increases.

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Interest Receivable (Dr.)           $250

            Interest Revenue (Cr.)                $250

Explanation:

Notions Co. has borrowed money from Lemming and will have to pay cost for it which is a source of fund (revenue) for Lemming. According to the Accrual concept of accounting, revenue should be recognized when earned and not when cash is received.  At year end, the interest revenue of two months has been accrued, so it needs to be recognized in the Books of Lemming.

⇒ 18,750 * 8% = 1,500 p.a.

OR Interest Revenue for two months = (1,500/12) * 2 = $250.
