Illustrate the Substitution Effect, Income Effect and Total Effect of a normal good and an inferior good. Clearly label out the changing directions of these effects.

if the income effect = 8 and substitution effect = 12, is the good a normal/inferior/giffen good? Explain your answers.
3) Substitution & Income Effects, Normal & Inferior Goods—Discuss with appropriate diagrams. a) What is the substitution effect? b) What is the income effect? c) Why do substitution and income effects typically reinforce each other when we consider normal goods? d) Is this true for an inferior good?
1. (a) Outline the income and substitution effect of a price rise for an inferior good. Under what circumstances will the demand curve slope downwards for an inferior good. Illustrate using a diagram. (b) (c) Bob views apples and oranges as perfect substitutes in his consumption, and MRS 1 for all combinations of the two goods in his indifference map. Suppose the price of apples is $2 per pound, the price of oranges is $3 per pound, and Bob's budget...
If the price of a good changes so that the income effect and the substitution effect reinforce one another, this means the good is: inferior. normal. always on the budget line. not likely to be bought.
. Draw a concept graph to show the substitution effect (SE), income effect (IE), and total effect (TE) of an increase in the price of X on the demand for X with X to be an inferior good and Y to be a normal good
Select all that applies: a. Ordinary goods could be normal or inferior. b. Giffen goods could be ordinary or normal. c. Normal goods must be ordinary. d. Inferior goods must be Giffen. e. If income and substitution effects work in the opposite direction, then the good must be ordinary. f. If income and substitution effects work in the opposite direction, and the substitution effect is stronger, then the good must be Giffen.
The demand curve for potatoes is downward sloping. If the price of potatoes, an inferior good, rises, then a. both the income and substitution effects reinforce each other to decrease the quantity demanded. b. the income and substitution effects offset each other but the price effect of an inferior good leads you to buy more potatoes. c. the income effect (which causes you to reduce your potato purchases) is smaller than the substitution effect (which causes you to increase your...
Income Elasticity of Demand Normal Or Inferior Good Clubs (-1.22, -0.82, 0.82, 1.22) (Normal, Inferior) Chips (-1.1, -0.91, 0.91, 1.1) (Normal, Inferior) Diamonds (-2.73, -0.37, 0.37, 2.73) (Normal, Inferior) Data collected from the economy of Cardtown reveals that an 11% decrease in income leads to the following changes: • A 9% increase in the quantity of clubs demanded • A 10% decrease in the quantity of chips demanded • A 30% decrease in the quantity of diamonds demanded Compute the...
A consumer only consumes two commodities, x1 and x2. If x2 is an inferior good, and if p1 rises, do the resulting income and substitution effects on good 2 work in the same direction as each other, or in opposite directions from each other?
4. Show income and substitution effect on graph when price of a normal good decreases. (10 points)
