A 5 percent increase in the price of good C leads to a 20 percent decrease in the quantity demanded of good D. Instructions: Round your answer to two decimal places. If you are entering a negative number be sure to include a negative sign (-) in front of that number. The cross-price elasticity of these goods is: These goods are complements

Income Effects depend on the income elasticity of demand for each good limit you buy. If one of the goods you buy has a negative income elasticity, that is, it is an inferior good, what must be true of the income elasticity of the other good you buy?
Using the following equation for the demand for a good or service, calculate the price elasticity of demand (using the point form), cross-price elasticity with good x and income elasticity. Q=82P+0.10I+Px Q is quantity demanded, P is the product price. P1 is the price of a related good, and I is income. Assume that P= $10, I = 100, and Px = 20.
What is the formula for line cross-price elasticity of demand?
Economists 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?
On Tuesday, the price and quantity demanded are 7 and 120 units, respectively. Ten days later, the price and quantity demanded are 6 and 150 units, respectively. What is the price elasticity of demand between the 7 and 6 prices?
What is the formula for the income elasticity of demand?
