Answer:

The answer is: C) 10% more peanut butter on the shelves

Explanation:

To determine what you need to do with your peanut butter stock, you must first determine if the quantity demanded for peanut butter will increase or decrease and at what percentage. To do this we can use the following formula:

change in peanut butter sales = income elasticity of demand x average change in income

change in peanut butter sales = -5% x -20% = 10% increase

Since you expect a 10% increase in the quantity demanded for peanut butter, you should have 10% more peanut butter in stock
