Answer:

d) all of the above.

Explanation:

All of the above statement correspond to different definitions of demand that economists use on a daily base.

Statement A.2) refers to demand schedule, which is also simply referred to as demand in the press, or in informal contexts.

Statement B) refers to an equilibrium quantity demanded, which occurs when supply and demand meet under an equilibrium price.

Statement C) refers to quantity demanded because it is not always relevant, when talking about demand, whether the good demanded is a necessity or a luxury.

At a specific point on the demand curve for backpacks, the elasticity of demand is calculated to be -0.5.a. At that point, we wo
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Inelastic; 5%; fall; 10%; rise

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand is always negative for normal goods. This happens because of the law of demand, that demand falls with rise in price.

Price elasticity between 0 and 1 shows inelastic demand.

This means that there is smaller change in demand due to a greater change in price level.

Price elasticity of demand is -0.5.

If the price falls by 10%, demand will increase by 5%.

The revenue will fall, because of greater fall in price.

If the price increases by 20%, demand will fall by 10%.

Revenue will increase because of greater increase in price.

A decrease in the demand for eggs due to changes in consumer tastes, accompanied by a decrease in the supply of eggs as a result
Mariana [72]

Answer:

a decrease in the equilibrium quantity of eggs; the equilibrium price may increase or decrease

Explanation:

Here are the options

a decrease in the equilibrium quantity of eggs and no change in the equilibrium price.

a decrease in the equilibrium quantity of eggs; the equilibrium price may increase or decrease.

a decrease in the equilibrium price of eggs; the equilibrium quantity may increase or decrease.

a decrease in the equilibrium price of eggs and no change in the equilibrium quantity.

Only a change in the price of a good leads to a movement along the demand curve of that good. Also, only a change in the price of the good would lead to an increase or decrease in the quantity demanded of that good.

Other factors other than the change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the demand curve. Some of those factors include :

1. a change in consumers' expectation

2. a change in the taste of consumers

3. a change in income

A change in price of a good leads to a movement along the supply curve and not a shift of the supply curve.

Other factors other than a change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the supply curve. Such factors include :  

1. A change in the price of input  

2. A change in the number of suppliers  

3. Government regulations  

A decrease in the demand for eggs would lead to a leftward shift of the demand curve for eggs. Price and quantity would fall as a result.

a decrease in the supply of eggs would lead to a leftward shift of the supply curve for eggs. Price would increase and quantity would fall.

Taking these two effects together, there would be a fall in equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price can either rise or fall depending on if demand or supply has a greater effect.
