A) coefficient in the price = -11.4
B) coefficient on average income = 0.5
C) the product is a normal good. Since there is a positive relationship between the quantity demanded and Income which is shown by a positive coefficient on Income.

Consider that the general demand function for a product X is estimated to be Qd = 500 – 5P + 0.5M + 10PY - 2PZ Where Qd is quantity demanded of good X, P is price of good X, M is consumer income (in thousands), PY is price of good Y, and PZ is price of good Z. a. Based on the estimated demand function, what is the relationship between good X and good Y; between good X...

Suppose the following is an estimated log-linear demand function: ln Q = 8.99 – 3.78 ln P – 1.77 ln M – 2.03 ln PR All parameter estimates are significant. 1) Is this good a normal or an inferior good? 2) Is this good a complement of or substitute for the related good? 3) What is the price elasticity of demand for this good? 4) What is the income elasticity of demand for this good?
An economic consultant for X Corp. recently provided the firm’s marketing manager with this estimate of the demand function for the firm’s product: Q d x = 98 − 4Px + 6Py − 1M where Qd x represents the amount consumed of good X, Px is the price of good X, Py is the price of good Y , and M is income. Suppose good Y sells for $2 per unit and consumer income is $10. (a) Are goods X and Y substitutes...
