- Consider the demand for hamburgers. If the price of a substitute good (for example, hot dogs) increases and the price of a complement good (for example, hamburger buns) increases, can you tell for sure what will happen to the demand for hamburgers? Why or why not? Illustrate your answer with a grapharrow_forwardHarry's income declines and as a result, he buys more pumpkin juice. Is pumpkin juice an inferior or a normal good? What happens to Harry's demand curve for pumpkin juice?arrow_forwardTwo students, Nick and Sofia, are discussing normal and inferior goods. Nick says that if Frodo buys more beer when the price of beer goes up, then beer must be an inferior good for Frodo. If, on the other hand, he buys less beer when the price of beer goes up, then beer must be a normal good for Frodo. Sofia disagrees: "Normal and inferior goods are about income changes, not price changes. Therefore, we do not have enough information: beer could be an inferior or normal good in either of these cases." Do you agree or disagree? Carefully explain your point of view. Support your argument with graphs of income, substitution and total effects (please put beer on the horizontal axis and the other goods on the vertical axis). Please assume that Frodo's preferences over beer and other goods are strictly convex and satisfy "more is better" assumption.arrow_forward
- why does a substitution between goods cause a negative slope on a demand curve?arrow_forwardWhen there is a change in the price of a related good, demand increases or decreases depending on the relationship between the two goods. Two economic terms describe these two relationships-substitutes and complements. An increase in the price of Good A increases demand for Good B when the two goods are substitutes. An increase in the price of Good A decreases demand for Good B when the two goods are complements.The graph shows the shift in the demand for good B when the price of good A increases depending on whether the two goods are substitutes or complements. Pick from the bold choices below. pls look at the graph. In Mexico, NAFTA had the result of lowering the price of used cars. Consider the effect of the price of used cars on the demand for new cars in Mexico. When the price of used cars in Mexico fell the Mexican demand for new cars (Increase or decrease). This would cause the new car demand curve in Mexico to (Shift right or shift left). The price of new cars in Mexico would…arrow_forwardAn economist notes that demand for Brand A increases when the price of Brand B decreases. We can say that Brand A and Brand B are substitute goods Brand A is an inferior good, while Brand B is a superior good Both Brand A and Brand B are normal goods O Brand A and Brand B are complementary goods O Brand A is a superior good while Brand B is an inferior goodarrow_forward
- Use the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility to discuss why Market Demand has to have a downward slope. In other words, in order for consumers to demand a higher quantity of an item, its price must fall. Also use the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility to explain why consumers often prefer to purchase a variety of goods and services (in other words, we are unlikely to fill a grocery cart with many units of the exact same product). Finally, use the utility optimizing condition that the ratio of Marginal Utility to Price for any good has to be the same across all goods to justify why it may be rational behavior to buy an item that is expensive compared to other items. Discuss these concepts using examples from your own experience and observations.arrow_forwardCan Giffin goods also be normal goods?arrow_forward
