Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
The demand for hamburgers will increase due to the following reasons:
- The
price of substitute products like hotdogs increases then consumers will prefer hamburgers over hotdogs. - If the price of complementary products like salad and drinks falls then consumers will prefer to buy hamburgers along with other relative products.
- Taste and preferences of consumers start changing, for example, people become non-vegetarian and start demanding hamburgers.
- People’s income level rises and hamburger is a normal good.
So, the demand for hamburgers will increase when the number of vegetarians in a town decreases and the population size stays the same. It means people are adopting hamburgers over vegetarian food.
