The demand for cigarettes has seen some decrease ever since vaping was introduced as a less harmful alternative to smoking cigarettes. Select the item from the list provided to make the following statements true. ✓ The main factor detailed in the scenario causing the decrease in demand for cigarettes is a/an 1. upward movement along the demand curve 2. change in price of a complement good Suppose the Australian government taxes the production of 3. increase in population cigarettes which led to an increase in prices of cigarettes and a decrease in quantity demanded for cigarettes in the market. Graphically this can be depicted as a/an of cigarettes. 4. downward movement along the demand curve 5. change in income of consumer 6. change in price of a substitute ✓ Now assume that prices of e-cigarettes (vape) decreased, 7. and cigarette smokers switched to the cheaper e-cigarettes. 8. This can best be explained by a change in expectation of future price decrease in population 9. change in consumer taste (preference) 10.rightward shift of the supply curve 11, change in input costs 12. upward movement along the supply curve

Consider two markets: the market for motorcycles and the market for pancakes. The initial equilibrium for both markets is the same, the equilibrium price is $4.50, and the equilibrium quantity is 29.0. When the price is $7.75, the quantity supplied of motorcycles is 65.0 and the quantity supplied of pancakes is 103.0. For simplicity of analysis, the demand for both goods is the same. Using the midpoint formula, calculate the elasticity of supply for pancakes. Please round to two decimal places.
The demand for commodity X fell from 1000 units to 800 units. When the income of the consumer increased from $5000 to $6000. Calculate the income elasticity of demand for good X. Also determine what type of good is good X ?
PRICE (Dollars per unit) 350 Z 225 175 Y W 50 Demand 0 10 35 45 70 QUANTITY (Units) For each of the regions listed in the following table, use the midpoint method to identify if the demand for this good is elastic, (approximately) unit elastic, or inelastic. Elastic Inelastic Unit Elastic Region Between W and X Between X and Y О О Between Y and Z О О О True or False: The slope of the demand curve is not equal to the value of the price elasticity of demand.

When describing changes in consumer behavior, explain the difference between substitute and complementary goods? Provide examples of both and describe their impacts on each other when price changes. Does time and a good’s price ($) relative to one’s overall income budget influence elasticity of a product? Why?
The price elasticity of demand (based on the midpoint formula) when price decreases from $8 to $6 is
Question 6 Price Demand, D Quantity Refer to the figure above. An increase in the price of a substitute would be represented by a movement from 0 OA) A to B OB) B to A OCD1 to D2. OD) D2 to D1.
If gas prices rose from $3 to $4 a gallon and gasoline consumption decreased by 50% Group of answer choices demand for gasoline is elastic. demand for gasoline is inelastic. total expenditures on gasoline would fall. Question 2 The greater the price elasticty of driving Group of answer choices an increase in the price of gas would have a greater effect on traffic congestion an increase in the price of gas would have no effect on traffic congestion the smaller the decrease in traffic congestion when the price of gasoline rises.
DINKS are households with "double income, no kids", and such households are invading your neighbourhood. You decide to take advantage of this influx by starting a gourmet take-away food store. Assume that these DINKS in your neighbourhood are your only potential customers. You know that the price elasticity of demand for your food from DINKS is 0.5, and their income elasticity of demand is 1.5. From the standpoint of the quantity that you sell, explain which of the following changes would concern you most. First, the number of DINKS in your neighbourhood falls by 10 percent. Second, the average income of DINKS falls by 5 percent.
The table below shows part of the aggregate demand schedule for smart phones in the country of Afluentia: Quantity demanded Price P QD $900 10,000 $700 14,000 i. Plot the demand curve for smart phones in Afluentia. Assume demand is linear. Calculate the price elasticity of demand when the price increases from $700 to $900 using the midpoint method. Make your calculations explicit. ii. All else being the same, what is Afluentia's total expenditure on smart phones when the price is $700? And when the price is $900? All else being the same, should Afluentia's suppliers charge $700 or $900 for a smart phone? Why? Explain briefly; show graphically and make your calculations explicit. iii. Now suppose younger people start also buying smart phones in Afluentia. This means 1,000 more smart phones are bought at any given price. As price increases from $700 to $900, is the price elasticity of aggregate demand now greater than, less than, or the same as it was in part (i)? Why? Explain briefly.…
Star wars coffee mugs are traded in a competitive world market with a price of R180 per cup. Unlimited quantities are available for import into South Africa at this price. On average 10 000 kg are traded each month. The elasticity of demand has been estimated at -0.81 and elasticity of supply at 3.51. Derive the demand equation for the star wars coffee mug. . . A. Qd = 12 800 - 45P B. Qd = 15 200 - 35P C. Qd = 18 100 - 45P D. Qd = 20 000 - 50P Note:- Do not provide handwritten solution. Maintain accuracy and quality in your answer. Take care of plagiarism.
