Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

In the base period a college student buys 20 gallons of gasoline at $2 per gallon, 2 CDs for $13 each, and 4 movie tickets for $7 each.

In the next month, the price of gasoline is $2.25 per gallon, CDs cost $12.50 each, and the price of a movie ticket is $7.50.

The price index

= \frac{price\ of\ basket\ in\ the\ current\ year}{price\ of\ basket\ in\ the\ base\ year}\ \times\ 100

= \frac{100}{94}\ \times\ 100

= 106.38 or 106.4

Feliz [49]

Answer: Normal good

Explanation:

A normal good is a good that has a positive correlation between its income and demand. This means that for a normal good, an increase in income will lead to an increase in the demand for the good while a reduction in income will also lead to a reduction in the demand for the good.

Cassandra bought 16 clothes when her income was $40000 but when her income reduced to $35000, she bought less of the good. That means that the cotton blouses bought by Cassandra are normal good.
