Official Solution:
Drop-down 1:
The difference between expenditures on apparel (11%) and transportation (8%) is 3 percentage points. Since this 3% corresponds to $2,400, it follows that 1% of the annual income is $800. Therefore, the total annual income is $80,000.
Drop-down 2:
Food accounts for 24% of the annual income. Saving 10% of this amount means saving 2.4% of the income. Since the original savings is 12%, the increase is 2.4% over 12%, which is (2.4% / 12%) * 100% = 20% increase in savings.
Correct answer:
Dropdown 1: "$80,000"
Dropdown 2: "20%"
