What is the difference between elastic demand and inelastic demand?

Elastic demand is essentially when something it a luxury, hence it can become less when price increases eg. that last piece of choc cake that you would normally buy, you decide not to, whereas the inelastic demand generally refers to a product/service that is essential or a necessity so as the price increases the consumption should remain the same regardless of price increase. for instance you need a loaf of bread, your going to buy it regardless of increase. there is the process of substitution, by which the inelastic demand could be switched to a cheaper brand, so say you want beans for your bread, you opt for the half price 10p special rather than your usual choice of heinz's best recipe. Hope this helps!


An asset costs 33000 it has an expected useful life of 5 years and an expected salvage value of 3000 what is the depreciation for the first year of assets life using the double declining method?

The double declining balance method depreciates the asset at twice the straight-line rate. To calculate the annual depreciation expense, you first find the straight-line depreciation rate by dividing the depreciable cost (original cost - salvage value) by the useful life. In this case, the depreciable cost is $33,000 - $3,000 = $30,000. The straight-line rate is $30,000 / 5 years = $6,000 per year. Double that rate to get the double declining rate of $12,000 per year. Therefore, the depreciation for the first year would be $12,000.


Is demand of education elastic or inelastic?

The supply of labor can be elastic if the labor requires very little expertise or training. Meaning picking up a day laborer to do the job doesn't require any time wasted or money wasted. If the laborer requires training or education then the labor could be inelastic meaning time and money will be lost waiting for the new laborer to become trained.
