- Suppose that you discover that, ceteris paribus, when the price of tomatoes increases, the demand for bleu cheese decreases. From this you conclude that: tomatoes and blue cheese are substitutes. tomatoes are inferior goods and blue cheese is a normal good. tomatoes and blue cheese are complements. the demand curve for tomatoes has shifted to the left.arrow_forwardWhen 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).

- 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_forwardWhat term is used to describe goods that can replace each other to some extent, so that a rise in the price of one good leads to a higher quantity consumed of the other good, and vice versa?
