Question:
1. A product has a price elasticity (of demand) equal to 1.50. If price increases by six percent, what will be the decrease in quantity demanded?
2. A product has an income elasticity of 0.75. If income rises by 8 percent, what will be the increase in demand?
3. In question 2, is the product most likely a luxury or necessity? Why?
4. The cross price elasticity between two products, L and M, is 0.40 (that is, the change in demand for L with respect to the change in the price of M). If the price of M rises by 10 percent, by how much will the demand for L change?
5. In question 4, are L and M substitutes or complements, and why?
