Answer:

This situation is an example of cross Price elasticity of Demand

Explanation:

If change in Price in Rental Company A doesn't necessitate change in prices in Rental companies B.C.D.E & F

Then the products A has on offer are not close substitutes to the rival companies

However where Rental company G lowers his price and it immediately triggers a Price reduction in Companies B to F, then obviously they offer similar products that are close substitutes and serve similar segment or channel of the Market Size. Thus failure to lower their Price will automatically see Customers rent cars more from Company G.

In preparing a responsibility income statement that shows contribution margin and responsibility margin, two concepts are involv
Ivenika [448]

Answer: Whether the costs are variable or fixed and whether they are directly traceable to the responsibility center.

Explanation:

The Responsibility Income Statement is one where the different centers in a business have their own sub income statement so that the activities of each center and their profitability is measured and monitored.

In this statement, costs are classified as Variable and Fixed so it is important that it is known whether the costs are variable or fixed.

As the statements are per center, the costs in them would have to be only those that are directly traceable to that center so that a truer reflection of the statements can be seen.
