We have to check whether the change will add $200 to this year’s budget.
1. Increasing the amount spent on drinks by 40%
that is = .4*500= $200 (500 is this year budget)
2. Increasing the amount spent on balloons by 100 percent
this year budget for balloons =100 so by increasing budget even 100% , we not achieve increase of $200 this year.
3. Spending the same amount this year on both types of appetizers as was spent last year.
last year total budget on appetizers = 400+400
This year budget = 300+300 =600
So it will increase budget by $200
