  where Q = monthly number of widgets sold, I = average monthly income, P = price of widgets, and PC = average price of competing goods.
 
  a. If next month's income is forecast to be 2,000, the price of competing goods is forecast to be 20, and the price of widgets will be set at 30, forecast sales.
