CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION The aim of the research is to study determinants of Malaysia’s cocoa export. This part will includes background of the study, objectives of study, scope of study, limitation of study and significance of study 1.1 Background of Study Growth in demand for chocolate during the twentieth century becomes a reason for increase in global demand for cocoa. Not only that, other factors that encourage demand for cocoa are due to the rise in per capita income and also populations. In general, a US$ 1,000 increase in income leads to 100 g rise in annual per capita consumption (Idris et al, 2011). Other substantial variables includes decreases in real retail prices, lower import duties, improved transportation methods, modern …show more content…
A more precise definition is given in terms of differential calculus. It is a toll for measuring the responsiveness of one variable to a change in another causative variable. An elastic variable (or elasticity value greater than 1) is one which changes less than proportionally in responses to change in other variables. 3.3.6.1 Elasticity Test Calculated as: Elasticity = % ∆ in dependent variable % ∆ in independent variable a.) Elasticity of cocoa bean export with respect to planted area. - Measure the degree of responsiveness in quantity of cocoa bean export due to change in cocoa planted area. QE = Quantity of cocoa export A = Cocoa planted area b.) Elasticity of cocoa bean export with respect to world price of cocoa. - Measure the degree of responsiveness in quantity of cocoa bean export due to change in a world price of cocoa. - QE = Quantity of cocoa export P = World price of cocoa c.) Elasticity of cocoa bean export with respect to cocoa export by competitors. - Measure the degree of responsiveness in quantity cocoa bean export due to a change in the quantity of cocoa export by competitors. - QE = Quantity of cocoa export C = Competitors’ cocoa

This effect was positive because my argument says it has more cheaper products for consumers and this is depending on my
In order to determine the impacts that changes in these two inputs may have in Chipotle’s valuation, a sensitivity analysis is conducted by varying the WACC and the perpetuity growth by 0.25% consecutively while keeping all other inputs constant. The next table shows how Chipotle’s price per share varies when the perpetuity
The American diet? - By improving the farming techniques, the corn production increased. This lowered the price of food, so that people only spent about 16% to 17% of take-home pays in food. By extending the rich of agriculture and transforming the way to farm, food becomes more affordable and fieldworks become easier.

f (P) QD : Quantity demanded P : Price of the commodity. The demand for coca cola as any normal good is downward slopping from left to right which shows the inverse relationship between the price and quantity demanded. The lower the price of Coca
5. Trade barriers and unfavorable political conditions can also affect the export
Excitability is the ability to respond or contract in response to chemical and/or electrical signals. Extensibility is the capacity to stretch to the normal resting length after contracting. Elasticity is the ability to return to the original resting length after a muscle

“Anything is good if it’s made of chocolate “. People around the world adore eating chocolate and enjoy it, but most of the people are not aware of the process of making chocolate. Chocolate production started in Mesoamerica in 1900 BC. The uses of chocolate at that time was to made fermented beverages but, know days it is consider the main ingredient in making cookies, milk suck and candy bars.
