Nicanor's passion is good wine. If the prices of the other goods are constant, Nicanor's demand for a good Rioja is c = 0.04m – 2p, where m is his income, p is the price of Rioja and c is the demand for Rioja bottles. Assume that Nicanor has an income of $10,000 and that the price of a decent bottle of Rioja is $50. If the price of Rioja rises to $60, determine the income effect and the substitution effect on the demand for bottles of Nicanor wine.
