Answer:

a. positive, so Joan considers hamburger to be an inferior good.

Explanation:

Income elasticity is a microeconomic concept that aims to measure the sensitivity of demand in the face of income changes. To calculate the Income elasticity , a formula is used that divides the observed percentage change in quantity (Q) by the percentage change in price income (P): Elasticity = ▲ Q / ▲ P

The percentage change in quantity (▲ Q) and the percentage change in price (▲ P) are calculated by the difference in quantity / price in the two periods divided by the quantity / price of the first period.

▲ Q = (60 -50/60) = 0,16

▲ Q = (40.000 - 30.000/40.000) = 0,25

Elasticity = ▲ Q / ▲ P  = 0,16/0,25 = 0,64

Therefore, the elasticity is positive.

This good is considered inferior, because according to microeconomic theory, inferior goods are those whose demand increases when consumer income decreases. This is the opposite of the normal good, which has its demand increased when income increases.

The answer for this question is mutual interdependence (role differentiation) and a common goal. Mutual interdependence works for distinct goals of every participant. In other words, common goals for the entire group (entire group works for goals that are acknowledged by all members, not all members functioning for different, personal goals, but doing it together.)

solmaris [256]

Answer:

(2) I. Express appreciation for trusting you to handle taxes II. Explain situation A. Unexpected income B. Change in tax codes III. Inform the client he owes an additional $10,000 in taxes IV. Close with a forward-looking statement.

Explanation:

This would be the best way to address this situation. In this example, the client is likely to be angry and upset when he realizes about the changes in his taxes. Therefore, you should try to preempt this situation. By expressing appreciation for using you to handle his taxes, you begin in a positive and friendly note. Moreover, you should proceed to explain the situation, inform him of the changes, and end on a kind note.

A company purchased a tract of land for its natural resources at a cost of $1,000,000. It expects to harvest 5,000,000 board fee
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The correct answer is $0.16.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Total cost = $1,000,000

Total units = 5,000,000

Salvage value = $200,000

So, we can calculate the depletion expense per board foot by using following formula:

Depletion expense = ( Total cost - Salvage value) ÷ Total Units

By putting the value, we get

Depletion expense = ( $1,000,000 - $200,000) ÷ 5,000,000

= $0.16
