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?
Recent 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?
Take Jeremys total utility information in Exercise 6.1, and use the marginal utility approach to confirm the choice of phone minutes and round trips that maximize Jeremys utility.
Jerry 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-axis
Illustrate and explain how consumer equilibrium is achieved using the indifference curve?Discuss how the demand elasticity of a product changes? Give examples.
Jamani earns a weekly income of $6000. Suppose he wishes to spend this income on two goods, games and DVDs only. A game costs $200 while a DVDcosts $600. Draw Jamani’s budget line. Putting games on the Y axis. ii. Suppose his income increases to $9000 per week, illustrate what happens to her budget line.iii. Suppose the price of games increase to $600, while his income and the price of DVDs is unchanged from part (i).
Juice e2 e₁ 15 18 25 B2 Soda 37) The above figure shows Bobby's indifference map for soda and juice. B₁ indicates his original budget line. B₂ indicates his budget line resulting from an increase in the price of soda. From the graph, one can conclude that A) the income elasticity of demand for soda is 1. B) Bobby's demand for soda is perfectly inelastic. C) Bobby views soda as a normal good. D) Bobby views soda as an inferior good.
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.

. Kawther’s income is OMR12 a week. The price of small-sized pizza is OMR3, and the price of a fresh juice is OMR3. Calculate the equation for Kawther’s budget line and illustrate all options on the table. Draw a graph of Kawther’s budget line with the quantity of fresh juice on the x-axis. Kawther’s income is OMR12 a week. The price of small-sized pizza rises from OMR3 to OMR6, and the price of a fresh juice is unchanged at OMR3. Explain how Kawther’s budget line changes with fresh juice on the x-axis.
