Document Summary

Slutsky: changes to demands caused by a price change are the sum of a pure substitution effect, and an income effect. This assumed that income y did not change as prices changed. Now, my income depends on the price of my endowment, if the price goes up, i get more income because i can sell the fixed amount w1 for more money does change with price. A change in p1 or p2 changes y = p1w1 + p2w2, so there will be an additional income effect, called the endowment income effect. Slutsky"s decomposition will thus have three components a pure substitution effect. Price of one good in terms of other an (ordinary) income effect, and. Purchasing power of fixed money income an endowment income effect. Sell good 1 at price p1 and buy good 2 at price p2 then i will move up the budget constraint.

True or False. If False explain why it's false.

1. If all prices are doubled an money income is the left the same, the budget set does not change because the relative prices do not change.

2. A decrease in income pivots the budget line around the bundle initially consumed.

3. If preferences are well-behaved, then for any commodity bundle (x1,x2), the set of commodity bundles that are worse than (x1,x2) is a convex set.

4. The marginal rate of substitution measures the distance betwee one indifference curve and the next one.

5. If someone has the utility function U= 2min(x, y), then x and y are perfect complements for that person.

6. At the boundary optimum, a consumers indifference curve must be tangent to her budget line.

7. If two goods are substitutes, then an increase in the price of one of them will increase the demand for the other.

8. An Engel curve is a demand curve with the vertical and horizontal axes reversed.

9. An inferior good is less durable than a normal good.

10. When other variables are held fixed, the demand for a Giffen good rises when income increase.

1)The law of demand states that as the price of a good rise, _____.

A. buyers purchase more of the good because the price of a substitute has risen.

B. buyers purchase less of the good because their real income decreases with an increase in price.

C. buyers purchase more of the good because they expect prices to be even higher in the future

D. buyers purchase less of the good because they expect prices to fall in the future.

A. the quantity demanded of a good.

B. the demand for a good.

C. the substitution effect of consuming a good.

D. the opportunity cost of producing a good.

B. a rightward shift of the demand curve.

C. a leftward movement along the demand curve.

D. a rightward movement along the demand curve.

4) Which of the following will cause the demand curve for a normal good to shift to the right?

B. A decrease in income.

C. A decrease in the price of the good.

D. An increase in the price of a substitute good.

5)Which of the following best defines supply?

A. The amount of a good that is produced at the least possible cost, other things constant

B. The amount of a good that producers are willing and able to sell at each possible price, other things constant.

C. The amount of a good that consumers want to buy at different income levels

D. The amount of a good that producers want to sell at a fixed price

6)The market supply curve of a particular product indicates the total quantities:

A. that are actually sold during a given time period.

B. that sellers are willing to offer for sale at a fixed price.

C. that buyers are willing to purchase at alternative prices.

D. that sellers are willing and able to offer at alternative prices.

7)When quantity demanded of a good exceeds the quantity supplied at the prevailing market price, _____.

A. the demand curve shifts rightward until the surplus is eliminated

B. the market is in equilibrium.

C. the price of the good will tend to increase.

D. the price of the good will decrease

8)A shortage of textbooks is most likely to cause:

A. an increase in the price of textbooks.

B. a decrease in the supply of textbooks.

C. a decrease in the price of paper.

D. an increase in the cost of printing.

9)The most important characteristic of the equilibrium price is that it:

A. maximizes the quantity demanded.

B. clears the market, leaving neither a surplus nor a shortage.

C. minimizes the quantity demanded.

D. guarantees that producers earn the profit.

10)If both demand and supply increases in a market that is initially in equilibrium, the price will:
