Answer: b. +3; normal

Explanation:

Income elasticity measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in consumer's income.  When demand for a good increases with an increase in income, it is termed as a normal good. While, when demand for a good decreases with an increase in income it is termed as an inferior good.

Using the mid-point method,

e_{i} = \frac{ 4 - 2}{\frac{4 + 2}{2} } * \frac{\frac{50000 + 40000}{2} }{50000 - 40000}

e_{i} = \frac{2}{3}  *  \frac{45,000}{10,000}

e_{i} =0.67*4.5

e_{i} = 3.015

Therefore, income elasticity is 3 and the good is a normal good as rise in income increases demand.

Effectus [21]

an increase in the price of soccer balls.

Explanation:

Soccer balls are made of polyethylene and other petroleum oil derivates. An increase in the price of oil will lead to increased price of soccer balls, because the raw material price has gone up.

Kayaks also have raw materials derived from oil that is why they are experiencing a rise in price.

Kayaks and soccer balls will have a directly proportional relationship due to their common raw material source- oil.
