Answer:

Change in revenue will be -$100000

So option (a) will be correct answer

Explanation:

We have given amount of sale for each house = $350000

It is given 20 costumers are willing to sell

Now it is given that if price is lowering to $300000 then 3 more costumers are willing to purchase.

We have to find the developer’s change in revenue.

So change in revenue will be equal to =  $350000×20 - $300000×(20+3) = -$100000

So change in revenue will be equal to -$100000

So option (a) will be correct answer.
