why does a substitution between goods cause a negative slope on a demand curve?
In order to raise tax revenue and reduce cigarette sales, the government decided to impose a new alcohol tax on all beer sales. One year after introducing the tax, the government found that the tax was most effective in reducing beer sales among young people but did not have a significant effect on others. What can this information tell you about the demand curves?
When there is a change in the price of a related good, demand increases or decreases depending on the relationship between the two goods.
Two economic terms describe these two relationships-substitutes and complements.
An increase in the price of Good A increases demand for Good B when the two goods are substitutes.
An increase in the price of Good A decreases demand for Good B when the two goods are complements.The graph shows the shift in the demand for good B when the price of good A increases depending on whether the two goods are substitutes or complements.
Pick from the bold choices below. pls look at the graph.
In Mexico, NAFTA had the result of lowering the price of used cars.
Consider the effect of the price of used cars on the demand for new cars in Mexico.
When the price of used cars in Mexico fell the Mexican demand for new cars
(Increase or decrease). This would cause the new car demand curve in Mexico to (Shift right or shift left). The price of new cars in Mexico would…

- Two students, Nick and Sofia, are discussing normal and inferior goods. Nick says that if Frodo buys more beer when the price of beer goes up, then beer must be an inferior good for Frodo. If, on the other hand, he buys less beer when the price of beer goes up, then beer must be a normal good for Frodo. Sofia disagrees: "Normal and inferior goods are about income changes, not price changes. Therefore, we do not have enough information: beer could be an inferior or normal good in either of these cases." Do you agree or disagree? Carefully explain your point of view. Support your argument with graphs of income, substitution and total effects (please put beer on the horizontal axis and the other goods on the vertical axis). Please assume that Frodo's preferences over beer and other goods are strictly convex and satisfy "more is better" assumption.arrow_forwardIs the statement true or false?

- The following graph plots the demand curve (blue line) for several consumers in the market for VR headsets in Mead, a small town located in Colorado. The Mead market price of a VR headset is given by the horizontal black line at $180. Each rectangle you can place on the following graph corresponds to a particular buyer in this market: orange (square symbols) for Jacques, green (triangle symbols) for Kyoko, purple (diamond symbols) for Musashi, tan (dash symbols) for Rina, and blue (circle symbols) for Sean. Use the rectangles to shade the areas representing consumer surplus for each person who is willing and able to purchase a VR headset at a market price of $180. (Note: If a person will not purchase a VR headset at the market price, indicate this by leaving his or her rectangle in its original position on the palette.)
