Answer:

The answer is: Income statement

Explanation:

As she wants to get information on sales and costs, the Income statement is the statement that she should looking for. With the Balance sheet statement, it only shows information on the financial position reporting the firm's assets, liabilities and owner's equity at a specific point in time rather than the sales and costs firgures during the reporting period.

Furthermore, she should opt for Income statement rather than the common-size income statement because the common-size income statement hardly illustrates any trend during the recent years/ reporting periods, instead, it is only shown each revenue and cost items as percentage of total sales in a specific period.

In the income statement, there should be enough information for the new CFO to find trends on revenues and costs (if any) because the revenue and cost items is detailed enough and at least it should be given the comparision between sales & costs of the reporting period versus the firgures of the previous reporting period.

uysha [10]

Answer:

Falls:rises.

Explanation:

The MU/P (Marginal Utility/Price) ratio for good X is greater than the MU/P (Marginal Utility/Price) ratio for good Y. To achieve consumer equilibrium, the consumer reallocates dollars from the purchase of good Y to the purchase of good X. If the law of diminishing marginal utility holds, the marginal utility of good X falls and the marginal utility of good Y rises.

The law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the unit of a good or service consumed by an individual increases, the additional satisfaction he or she derives from consuming additional units would start decreasing or diminishing as the units of good or service consumed increases.

Also, the marginal utility of goods and services is the additional satisfaction that a consumer derives from consuming or buying an additional unit of a good or service.

Hence, the marginal utility of good X falls and the marginal utility of good Y rises because the consumer no longer derive satisfaction or benefits (utility) from the consumption of good X while he would switch to good Y for satisfaction.
