- If a 10 decrease in the price of one product that you buy causes an 8 increase in quantity demanded of that product, will another 10 decrease in the price cause another 3 increase (no more and no less) in quantity demanded?arrow_forwardEconomists define normal goods as having a positive income elasticity. We can divide normal goods into two types: Those whose income elasticity is less than one and those whose income elasticity is greater than one. Think about products that would fall into each category. Can you come up with a name for each category?arrow_forwardRecent research confirms that the demand for cigarettes is not only inelastic, but it also indicates that smokers with incomes in the lower half of all incomes respond to a given price increase by reducing their purchases by amounts that are more than four times as large as the purchase reductions made by smokers in the upper half of all incomes. How can the income and substitution effects of a price change help explain this finding?arrow_forward
- As a general rule, is it safe to assume that a change in the price of a good will always have its most significant impact on the quantity demanded of that good, rather than on the quantity demanded of miller goods? Explain.arrow_forwardPlease create the demand table of some product. Let's assume that you surveyed 5 prices and corresponding quantities. Please using your Demand Schedule draw the Demand Curve on the paper and attach here a photo of you drawing How your demand curve is showing the Law of Demand, try to illustrate with your data. What happens with Q when P is increasing? How do you understand the substitution effect? What could be the substitutes to your purchased product? What would happen to the demand of your product if the price of the substitute would increase? If few of you friends would be buying the same product, each of you would have a bit different Demand Schedule. What does it say market demand as a sum of individual demand schedules? How do you understand moving along the curve and curve shifting? What is the difference? Please use your drawn demand curve and shift it to practice the understanding. Attach the photo here. What are the factors (see the theory) making the demand curve shift?arrow_forward
