Answer: b). falls from a positive amount to another positive amount
Explanation: Given that diet coke and diet pepsi give the consumer equal level of satisfaction. Diet coke and diet pepsi are substitutes, since, the consumer does not care about consuming diet pepsi and diet coke. For substitute goods the consumer will buy the cheapest of the two. When pdc (price of diet coke) rises but it remains less than pdp(price of diet pepsi) then the consumption of dc will decrease but it will still be above the consumption of dp. Since it is still relatively less expensive than diet pepsi. So the consumer will buy diet coke than diet pepsi, which means consumption of diet coke, dc falls from one positive amount to another positive amount.
Calculation of Direct Material Budget for the month of July:
Budgeted production (Units) for July 5,000
Material required per unit (pounds) 3
Material requirement for July (pounds) = (5000 units * 3 pounds) 15,000
Add: Ending material inventory (5300 units * 3 pounds* 30%) 4,770
Less: Beginning material inventory 4,500
Direct Material Purchase (Pounds) (15000+4770-4500) = 15,270
Cost per pound of Metrial ($) $6.00
Direct Material Purchase ($) (15270 pounds * $6) = $91,620
