Answer:
A's segment profit margin is: $151,000
Explanation:
<u>Calculation of A's segment profit margin</u>
Sales revenue $ 810,000
Less Variable operating expenses ($319,000)
Controllable Contribution $491,000
Less Fixed expenses:
Traceable to A and controllable by A ($230,000)
Traceable to A and controllable by others ($111,000)
Profit Margin $151,000
in this case, identical changes in autonomous consumption and autonomous government spending: <span> have different effects on equilibrium income
When a factor is implemented and have two different reaction, it is safe to assume that that factor have two different effects.
