computer price down ->  producer surplus down
computer quantity up -> producer surplus up

Answer:
Accounting rate of return = 20.53%
Explanation:
<em>The accounting rate of return is the average annual income expressed as a percentage of the average investment.</em> 
The simple rate of return can be calculated using the two formula below:
Accounting rate of return 
= Annual operating income/Average investment
× 100
Average investment = (Initial cost + scrap value)/2
                                      = 30,000/2= 15,000
Accounting rate of return = ( 3080/15,000) × 100
= 20.53%
Accounting rate of return = 20.53%
