An inferior good is a type of welfare whose demand decreases when consumer income increases or demand increases when consumer income decreases. Therefore, if a consumer considers shirts to be inferior goods, the way he will stop consuming it will be when there is a real increase in his income.
In the case narrated, Alex had an increase in salary and remained working for the same number of hours. This means that with the same job, he will have a higher income, meaning there was a real increase in Alex's income. If he considers the $ 3 shirts a much lower asset, he will lessen the demand for it.
Answer:
The answer is 629,000.
Explanation:
- For each unit of M sold, the price is 7 and the cost is 3, so the contribution margin is 4;
- For each unit of N sold, the price is 4 and the cost is 2, so the contribution margin is 2;
- For each unit of O sold, the price is 6 and the cost is 3, so the contribution margin is 3;
- With the mix, 1 unit of sale contributes (contribution per mix) 3*M+1*N+2*O = 3*4+1*2+2*3 = 20
For covering the 340,000 of fixed costs, you have to sale 340,000/20 units. That's equal to 17,000 units.
Each unit of sales is equal to (price per mix) 7*M+4*N+6*O = 7*3+4*1+6*2 = 37. So, with 17,000 units, the total sales will be 17,000 * 37 = 629,000.
c. when the price of a good decreases, sellers produce less of the good.
According to the law of supply, an increase in price results in an increase in quantity supplied. This means that there is a direct relationship between price and quantity: Thus, when price of a good falls, sellers produce less
Answer:
Option c) how a consumer might trade off different levels of consumption of each of two goods, while staying at the same utility level.
Explanation:
This is the very definition of an indifference curve. The points in an indifference curve are the combinations of the quantities (level of consumption) of two different goods which will produce the very same utility to the consumer. The consumer will perceive any of those combinations as having the same utility for him.
For example, a usual graph of various indifference curves will look like the graph attached.
In this graph the combination of 2 pairs of shoes and 15 pants will be perceived as having the same utility as the combination of 5 pairs of shoes and 4 pants. Both are combinations in the same indifference curve, the green one, and the utility of any combination lying in that green curve will be rated the same: u = 1.
