Answer:

500%

Explanation:

Given that,

Income elasticity of demand = 2.5

Consumer income increases from $100 to $300,

Therefore, percentage change in consumer income:

= [($300 - $100) ÷ $100] × 100

=  [$200 ÷ $100] × 100

= 200%

Income elasticity of demand = (% change in Quantity demanded) ÷ (% change in income)

2.5 = (% change in Quantity demanded) ÷ 200%

Hence,

% change in Quantity demanded = 2.5 × 200%

                                                       = 500%

Big Box Store has operated with a 30% average gross profit ratio for a number of years. It had $100,000 in sales during the seco
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

c) $20,000.

Explanation:

The computation of the estimated ending inventory is shown below:

We know that

Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + purchase made - ending inventory

And, the

Sales - gross profit = Cost of goods sold

$100,000 - $100,000 × 30% = Cost of goods sold

So, cost of goods sold would be

= $100,000 - $30,000

= $70,000

Now the ending inventory would be

$70,000 = $18,000 + $72,000 - ending inventory

$70,000 = $90,000  - ending inventory

So, the ending inventory would be

= $90,000 - $70,000

= $20,000
