Cross elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness in the quantity demand of one good when a change in price takes place in another commodity or good. It is calculated by dividing the percentage change in the quantity demanded of one good by the percentage change in price of other good.
Therefore, in this case, cross elasticity of demand will be;
   17%/-2% = - 8.5   (-2% because its a decrease)

Contribution margin                                                     $198,075

Which of the following is true?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Overhead costs are often affected by many issues and are frequently too complex to be explained by any one factor.

Explanation:

Overhead is an accounting term used for costs that must be paid, even though the company receives no profits. A company would not be able to survive without paying its overhead expenses but the costs are not connected directly to a product or service being generated. Examples of overhead costs are rent, utilities, office supplies, and maintenance.

<em> </em>

<em>Overhead costs are difficult to be traced because they can be assigned to more than one factor.</em>
