If demand price elasticity measures 2, this implies that consumers would Group of answer choices buy twice as much of the product if the price drops 10 percent. require a 2 percent drop in price to increase their purchases by 1 percent. buy 2 percent more of the product in response to a 1 percent drop in price. require at least a $2 increase in price before showing any response to the price increase. buy twice as much of the product if the price drops 1 percent.
Answer:
buy twice as much of the product if the price drops 10 percent.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price of the good.
Price elasticity of demand = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
If the absolute value of price elasticity is greater than one, it means demand is elastic. Elastic demand means that quantity demanded is sensitive to price changes.
Demand is inelastic if a small change in price has little or no effect on quantity demanded. The absolute value of elasticity would be less than one
Demand is unit elastic if a small change in price has an equal and proportionate effect on quantity demanded.
Infinitely elastic demand is perfectly elastic demand. Demand falls to zero when price increases
Perfectly inelastic demand is demand where there is no change in the quantity demanded regardless of changes in price
If price elasticity is 2, it means that the percentage change in quantity demanded is twice greater than the percentage change in price
If price drops by 10%, and elasticity is 2, demand would increase by 20%
2 = percentage change in quantity demanded / percentage change in price
2 = percentage change in quantity demanded / 10
Percentage change in quantity demanded = 10 x 2 = 20

So, if the seller tells the customer "the jacket is thin because it uses a fiber called Thinsulate that makes it thin but also warm", then that will make it an interesting and important factor for the customer to like the product more.

A taxi crashed into a telephone pole. The taxi's passenger commenced a negligence action against the taxi driver, properly serving the taxi driver with the summons and complaint. The taxi driver, being an independent contractor with no right to indemnity from the taxi's owner, turned the summons and complaint over to his insurance company. After trial, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the passenger, finding that the taxi driver's negligence was the sole cause of the crash. The passenger then commenced a second action, this time against the owner of the taxi. The owner also had no right of indemnity from the taxi driver. The passenger alleged that the taxi driver's negligence was the sole cause of the crash and that the owner was vicariously liable. The passenger immediately moved for partial summary judgment against the owner based on the finding of the taxi driver's negligence in the prior action. If the court denies the motion, what is the most likely reason
Answer:
If the court denies the motion, the most likely reason is that vicarious liability cannot be established against the taxi owner because the driver is an independent contractor.
Explanation:
While an employer is vicariously liable for the negligent acts of its employees when carried out "in the course of employment," the taxi driver is an independent contractor, and his acts cannot be made good by the taxi owner. Secondly, since a verdict had already been entered in his favor against the taxi driver, the passenger's claim for damages will be adequately met by the first judgment.
