Question #3 Please explain what are the substitution and income effects (a detailed response is expected). Mark consumes two goods apples and oranges. If the price of orange increases from $2 to $4 and orange is an inferior good, please illustrate graphically the income and substitution effects. Please label your diagram carefully and provide explanation. Qd = 3300 – 2P and Qs = 500 + 8p Solve for: Price, Quantity and Market equilibria

Problem 2 Marty purchases two goods, food and clothing. He has a diminishing marginal rate of substitution of food for clothing. Let x indicate the amount of food consumed and y the amount of clothing. Suppose the price of food increases from P, to P2. On a clearly labeled graph, illustrate the income and substitution effects for each of the following scenarios: a) Food is a normal good. b) The income elasticity of food is zero (i.e. Marty's consumption of food does not change in response to his income). c) Food is an inferior good, but not a Giffen good. This question is based on problem 5.9 from Besanko and Breautigam. You can (but don't have to) assume that Marty's consumer choice problem has an interior solution both before and after the price change.

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

I understand the substitution effect, but I really need to understand the Income effect. Please explain that and thank you in advanced ?
Sarah perceives tea (vertical axis) and coffee (horizontal axis) as perfect substitutes,where she is always willing to exchange 2 cups of tea with 1 cup of coffee. Assume thather income is $200 and the prices of tea and coffee are $4 and $5 per unit respectively.Clearly label your graph, showing the quantities of tea and coffee consumed. please draw a clear graph with labels, according to the question
Mel needs your help in understanding the following problem. The price of lettuce has increased slightly from R4.00 to R5.00, causing a fall in the quantities demanded from 100 to 80 per month. However, she also noticed a decrease in the demand for tomatoes, from 150kg to 120kg, even though no price changes have occurred. Can you help her understand this behaviour by seeing if a relationship possibly exists between these two goods? [Hint: Use the elasticity coefficient as a tool for your recommendation. Show all workings. Round your answer to 4 decimal points.]

John consumes 20 units of food and 24 units of clothing. If food is an inferior good, will John be indifferent between receiving a $24 gift certificate at a clothing store and receiving $24 in cash? Explain and show graphically.
2. George has preferences for food X and clothing Y described by a utility function U(X,Y)=XY¹2. a) Find his demand function for food. Assume prices for food and clothing are Px and Py. Income is I. b) What is the relationship between the two goods: food and clothing for George? Why? c) On a clearly labeled graph, illustrate the income and substitution effects of the price increase on the consumption of food.
)) Explain how the price effect can be decomposed into the substitution and income effects of a price change if one of the goods is normal and the other is a Giffen good. Comment on the slopes of the demand curve and the Engel curve for this case.
