The percentage change in income is given as 60%. We calculate the percentage change in quantity demanded as follows:
Substituting the value above in the income elasticity demand formula we get,
<u>YED = 0.33333</u>
Since the income elasticity is positive, and since Shawna buys more cottage cheese after an increase in income, we can classify this good as a normal good.

Answer: $8600
Explanation:
Joint cost allocation:
Product :
Loin chops
Pounds - 3000
Price per pound - $5
ground
Pounds - 10,000
Price per pound - 2.00
ribs
Pounds - 4,000
Price per pound - 4.75
bacon
Pounds - 6,000
Price per pound - 3.50
total joint cost - $43000
Sales cost per product :
Loin chops - 3000 × 5 = $15,000
Ground = 10000 × $2 = $20,000
Ribs - 4000 × $4.75 = $19,000
Bacon - 6000 × $3.50 = $21,000
Loin cost allocation is given by :
Total joint cost × (sales value of Loin chops ÷ Total sales value of all products)
$43,000 × ($15,000 ÷ $(15,000 + 20,000 + 19,000 + 21,000))
$43,000 × ( $15000 ÷ $75000)
$43,000 × 0.2 = $8600
