Shawna wins the lottery and her income increases by 60 percent. she used to buy 10 pints of cottage cheese per month and now she
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer: Her income elasticity of demand for cottage cheese is <em><u>0.3333</u></em> making it a <em><u>normal and necessary</u></em> good.

The income elasticity  of demand is given by :

\mathbf{YED = \frac{percentage change in demand}{percentage change in income}}

The percentage change in income is given as 60%. We calculate the percentage change in quantity demanded as follows:

\mathbf{percentage change in quantity demanded = \frac{Q_{1}-Q_{0}}{Q_{0}}}

\mathbf{percentage change in quantity demanded = \frac{12-10}{10}}

\mathbf{percentage change in quantity demanded = 0.2}\\

Substituting the value above in the income elasticity demand formula we get,

\mathbf{YED = \frac{0.20}{0.60}}

<u>YED = 0.33333</u>

Since the income elasticity is positive, and since Shawna buys more cottage cheese after an increase in income, we can classify this good as a normal good.

Since the income elasticity is between 0 and 1 we can also conclude that cottage cheese is also a essential good or a necessity.
