Economists define normal goods as having a positive income elasticity. We can divide normal goods into two types: Those whose income elasticity is less than one and those whose income elasticity is greater than one. Think about products that would fall into each category. Can you come up with a name for each category?
What does a downward-sloping demand curve mean about how buyers in a market will react to a higher price?
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?
Maria has decided always to spend one third of her income on clothing. a. What is her income elasticity of clothing demand? b. What is her price elasticity of clothing demand? c. It Marias tastes change and she decides to spend only one fourth of her income on clothing, how does her demand curve change? What is her income elasticity and price elasticity now?

Creative Homework/Short Project Assume that you arean entrepreneur who runs a bakery that sells glutenfree breads and cakes. You believe that the currenteconomic conditions merit an increase in the price ofyour baked goods. You are concerned, however, thatincreasing the price might not be profitable becauseyou are unsure of the price elasticity of demand for yourproducts. Develop a plan for the measurement of priceelasticity of demand for your products. What findingswould lead you to increase the price? What findingswould cause you to rethink the decision to increaseprices? Develop a presentation for your class outlining(1) the concept of elasticity of demand, (2) why raisingprices without understanding the elasticity would bea bad move, (3) your recommendations for measurement, and (4) the potential impact on profits for elasticand inelastic demand
