Consider the market for CD players, illustrated in the figure to the right. Suppose there are network externalities in this market such that the quantity of a good demanded grows in response to the growth of purchases by other individuals (as indicated by the demand curve "Demand" in the figure). Suppose that the price is initially $110 where the quantity demanded is 90 (thousand CD players per month). If the price of CD players falls to $50, demand will increase to thousand CD players per month. (Enter your response using an integer.) of this increase, thousand units of the 90 thousand-unit increase is the pure price effect and thousand units of the increase is the bandwagon effect. The bandwagon effect causes the demand for CD players to be more otherwise be the case (without network externalities). ▼than would 200- 180 160 Demand 140 120- 100- 80- 60- 40- 20- 0+ " 0 Deo 20 D150 D80 P120 P180 40 60 80 100 120 140 160 180 200 220 CD Players (thousands per month) Q
