Answer:

The income elasticy of demand for steak is 0.5

Explanation:

The income elasticity of demand formula is:

IED = Δ%Q / Δ%Y

Where:

The preliminary net income for February is $ 1,100

Explanation:

Computation of net income and net profit margin

Revenues   ( $   900 + $ 1,700 )                                                     $ 2,600    

Expenses ($ 200 + $ 1,200 + $ 100 )                                             <u>$ 1,500</u>

Net Income                                                                                      $ 1,100    

Net profit margin = Net income / Revenues

Net Profit margin   = $ 1,100/ $ 2,600 =                                          42.3 %  

The other entries for collections made on Feb 04 for services to be performed next month and the purchase of supplies to be used in the future are not to be considered in revenues and expenses as they do not pertain to the current month

umka21 [38]

Answer:

It is more profitable to raise the selling price by $2.
