Answer:

$131,180; 21.53%

Explanation:

The controllable margin and the return on investment for 2017 are as follows:

Controllable Margin = Sales - Variable cost - Controllable fixed cost

= $567,200 - $340,320 - $95,700

= $131,180

Return on investment = Controllable Margin ÷ Average operating assets

= $131,180 ÷ $609,100

= 0.2153

= 21.53%

When Alex's income increased from $2,000 to $4,000, he increased his consumption of bagels from 6 to 10 a month and decrease

Oliga [24]

Answer:

For Bagels = 1.33

For Donuts = -1.33

Explanation:

Using the midpoint method, Alex's percentage change in income is given by the difference in income divided by the average income:

$\%I =\frac{\$4,000-\$2,000}{\frac{\$4,000+\$2,000}{2}}\\\%I=66.67\%$

Alex's percentage change in demand for both bagels and donuts is given by the difference in the quantity consumed divided by the average consumption:

$\%B =\frac{10-6}{\frac{10+6}{2}}\\\%B=50.00\%\\\%D =\frac{9-15}{\frac{15+9}{2}}\\\%D=-50.00\%$

Alex's income elasticity of demand for bagels and donuts, respectively, is:

$E_B=\frac{\%I}{\%B}=\frac{66.67\%}{50\%} \\E_B=1.33\\\\E_D=\frac{\%I}{\%D}=\frac{66.67\%}{-50\%} \\E_D=-1.33$

His income elasticity of demand for bagels is 1.33, while for Donuts it is -1.33.
