    Where, bP is the price of the PoolVac good, cMavg is the average household income, and the dPh is the price of the related good (Howard Industries). So, we see the good sold by PoolVac (the Automatic Swimming Pool Cleaner) is considered a normal good. We know this due to the general demand formula and the LAW OF DEMAND, for every $1 dollar increase in the price of the PoolVac good, we see the quantity demanded decreases by 10.8 units. We can also state, the Howard Industry good is a substitute good. We know this based on the values from the general demand function formula. So for every $1 dollar increase in the price of the Howard Industry good, we see the quantity demanded of the PoolVac good increases by 3.17 units (when holding Income and the Price of the PoolVac good constant), this is due to the direct relationship between the change in quantity demanded and the change in price and the value for the related good is positive.…

    Prices of products and services also affect how much people are willing or able to purchase. If the supply of goods and services remains constant and the price increases, people may demand less of it. The same is true when supply is constant and there is a decrease in price, the demand for those goods and services may increase. There is also the possibility that buyers may find rare items more appealing, thus willing to pay a premium. The number of substitute products available can also affect how much a consumer will purchase of any given good or service. If there are many substitutes’ available, consumers have a choice of which product to buy, and they could chose to purchase another company’s goods, decreasing the demand. The price of the substitute can play a role in the decision making process as well. Substitution is not necessarily…

    There are two types of good- normal good and inferior good that will be discussed. A normal good is affected by income positively. That means as income increased quantity decreases. Note that when it says income, income goes up, it means the real income or the purchasing power of the consumer. An inferior good, however, a good that may in the consumer eyes be the sign of cheapness, inferior quality, consumers will buy less of the product when their purchasing power increases because they can now buy better goods. And an important rule to note here is 1) consumers are rational and 2) consumers want to achieve max. utility from their purchase. 3) consumers prefer buying more to less. The income effect for inferior goods as income increases and quantity decreases( negative relationship) is the result of 2) because buying more to less. The income effect for normal goods can be explained by 3) consumers prefer buying more to less because now with the additional income the consumer will now buy more. Important to note that real income, increases due to a decrease in price of the product or the increase in actual income ( while the price of good stays the same.
