1. Assume there is a well-defined geographic area of a city. The area is composed exclusively of apartments and is populated by low-income residents. The people who live in the area tend to stay in that area because (1) they cannot afford to live in other areas of the city‚ (2) they prefer to live with people of their own ethnic group‚ or (3) there is discrimination against them in other areas of the city.

Literature Review Demand and supply have been generalized to explain macroeconomic variables in a market economy. The Aggregate Demand-Aggregate Supply model is the most direct application of supply and demand to macroeconomics. Compared to microeconomic uses of demand and supply‚ different theoretical considerations apply to such macroeconomic counterparts as aggregate demand and aggregate supply. The AD-AS or Aggregate Demand-Aggregate Supply model is a macroeconomic model that explains price

• The demand curve is flatter (more horizontal) the closer the substitutes for the product and the less diminishing marginal utility is at work for the buyers. • The dependent variable in demand analysis is the quantity (the number of units) sold. The independent variables are price‚ income of buyers‚ the price of substitutes‚ and the price of complements. • An increase in income shifts the demand curve to the right for normal good. It goes to the left for an inferior good. • An increase in the

1. Suppose there are 100 consumers with identical individual demand curves. When the price of a movie ticket is $8‚ the quantity demanded for each person is 5. When the price is $4‚ the quantity demanded for each person is 9. Assuming the law of demand holds‚ which of the following choices is the most likely quantity demanded in the market when the price is $6? Explain and show calculations‚ While the question asks of the choices given what the quantity demanded will be‚ there are no choices

(external) forces are equal in magnitude‚ while supply–demand curves are unitary elastic. Given a certain event/scenario‚ (a) analyze the curve/s affected‚ shifts or movements and the direction‚ and (b) effect to equilibrium price (P*) and equilibrium quantity (Q*) Scenario 1 a. Prices of optical drives suddenly increase The production cost has increased so the supply decreases and eventually the price go up. The supply curve shifts to the left. b. A new market-standard

The Compensated Demand Curve Definition: the compensated demand curve is a demand curve that ignores the income effect of a price change‚ only taking into account the substitution effect. To do this‚ utility is held constant from the change in the price of the good. In this section‚ we will graphically derive the compensated demand curve from indifference curves and budget constraints by incorporating the substitution and income effects‚ and use the compensated demand curve to find the compensating
