If Edna buys more pasta when the price of pastaincreases, we can infer that for Ednaa. pasta is a normal good for which the incomeeffect exceeds the substitution effect.b. pasta is a normal good for which the substitutioneffect exceeds the income effect.c. pasta is an inferior good for which the incomeeffect exceeds the substitution effect.d. pasta is an inferior good for which thesubstitution effect exceeds the income effect.
If the price pf pasta increases and a consumer buys more pasta, we can infer that
a. pasta is a normal good and the income effect is greater than the substitution effect.
b. pasta is a normal good and the substitution effect is greater than the income effect.
c. pasta is an an inferior good and the income effect is greater is greater than the substitution effect.
d. pasta is an inferior good and the substitution effect is greater than the income effect.
When there is a change in price, there is an income effect and a substitution effect. Which is larger? The substitution effect or the income effect? Explain

- Bob consumes food and housing. Suppose his marginal utility from an additional unit of food is 20 and his marginal utility from an additional unit of housing is 180. Furthermore, suppose the price of a unit of food is $1.00 and the price of a unit of housing is $2.00. Can Bob increase his utility without changing his total expenditures on food and housing? Holding expenditures constant, A. Bob can increase utility by spending more on food and less on housing. B. Bob can increase utility by spending more on food and the same amount on housing. C. Bob can increase utility by spending less on food and more on housing. D. Bob cannot increase his utility. E. Bob can increase utility by spending more on food and more on housing.arrow_forwardJerry spends his entire budget on bread and gasoline. His preferences are complete, transitive, monotonic, and convex. For Jerry, bread is an inferior good that follows the law of demand. Moreover, his cross-price elasticity of demand for gasoline with respect to the price of bread is negative. Suppose the price of bread increases, all else constant. a. Create a chart to show the total, income, and substitution effects on bread and gasoline of the increase in the price of bread. b. Use budget lines and indifference curves to graphically illustrate the three effects. Be sure to label each effect on your graph (or through the chart from part a) and plot bread on the x-axis and gasoline on the y-axisarrow_forwardexplain how utility analysis leads to the law of demand.arrow_forward

- If a good is a Normal Good and its price decreases, what are the directions of the Substitution Effect and the Income Effect? Both are increases Both are decreases The Substitution Effect is an increase while the Income Effect is a decrease The Substitution Effect is a decrease while the Income Effect is an increasearrow_forwarda) Jim buys gingerbread and candy, both of which are normal goods. When the price of gingerbread rises, the income effect induces Jim to buy _______ gingerbread and ________ candy. b) Jim buys candy and gingerbread, both of which are normal goods. When the price of gingerbread rises, the substitution effect induces Jim to buy_______gingerbread and________ candy.arrow_forwardIf consumers buy less of a commodity when their incomes rise, this commodity is ( an inferior good , or a normal good ) ? . When the price of this commodity rises, the substitution effect is ( negative or postive) and the income effect is ( negative or postive) ? .
