- 27. When Sam has an income of $1,000, he consumes 30 units of good A and 50 units of good B. After Sam's income increases to $1,500, he consumes 60 units of good A and 40 units of good B. Which of the following statements is correct? a. Both goods A and B are normal goods b. Both goods A and B are inferior goods C. Good A is a normal good, and good B is an inferior good d. Good A is an inferior good, and good B is a normal goodWhen Sam has an income of 1.000 , he consumes 30 units of good A and 50 units of good B After Sam's income increases to $1,500 , he consumers 60 units of good A and 40 units of good B. Which of the following statements is correct ? a- Good A is a normal good and good B is an inferior good b- Both goods A and B are inferior goods c- Good A is an inferior good, and good B is a normal good d- Both goods A and B are normal goodsconsider a consumer who consumes only two goods :peas and beans. She has an income of K10, the price of beans is k0.20 while the price of peas is0.40.a) Draw the budget lineb) Suppose that the consumer consumes 30kg of beans. Assuming that she spends all her income, how many kgs of peas is she going to consume?c) Assume that the price of peas falls from k0.40 to k0.20. Assuming that the consumer still consumes 30kg of beans, find the new quantity of peas.d) After the decrease in price of peas to k0.20 assume that the consumer is just as well off as she was in (b) if she has an income of K7.60. However, with that income and the new price of peas, she would have consumed 20kg of beans. Find the quantity of peas she would have consumed in this case. Show it on the graph.

The price of coffee is $2 and the price of a bagel is $3.
