“However, dietary choices of people of various ethnic groups living in the United States continue to be influenced by the traditional food practices and/or religious customs. For example, many Asian Americans still eat a diet similar to traditional Asian diets, which include large amounts of rice accompanied by vegetables, soy products, fish and meat. Many Hispanic Americans continue to eat a diet based primarily on beans, rice, and corn tortillas, seasoned with chili peppers and accompanied by beef, pork and chicken and small amounts of dairy products.”

The Demand for a Product the Law of Demand as prices go up -- quantity demanded goes down (all other things remaining unchanged)
Demand Schedule Price Quantity $1.00 1000 $2.00 900 $3.00 800 $4.00 700
Demand Curve price a b quantity
Why downward sloping? Physical Satiation Substitution effect Income effect
ELASTICITY OF DEMANDTHE RESPONSIVENESS CONSUMERS ARE TO A CHANGE IN PRICE
ELASTICITY OF DEMAND% CHANGE IN QUANTITY DEMANDED/% CHANGE IN PRICE
ELASTICITY OF DEMANDIN THE CASE OF THE PRICE ELASTICITY OF DEMAND THIS IS A NEGATIVE NUMBER
ELASTICITY OF DEMAND DEMAND PRICE VERY INELASTIC QUANTITY
ELASTICITY OF DEMAND DEMAND PRICE ELASTIC QUANTITY
ELASTICITY OF DEMAND NECESSITY VS NON-NECESSITY
NECESSITY VS NON-NECESSITY % OF INCOME SPENT ON A GOOD
ELASTICITY OF DEMAND HOW NARROWLY THE PRODUCT IS DEFINED
Equilibrium supply price p demand quantity
DEMAND SHIFTERS S PRICE D2 D1 QUANTITY
DEMAND SHIFTERS • SHIFTS IN POPULATION
DEMAND SHIFTERS • SHIFTS IN POPULATION • SHIFTS IN INCOME
INCOME AND CHANGES IN CONSUMPTION --- CAN BE POSITIVE (A NORMAL GOOD) OR NEGATIVE (INFERIOR GOOD)
A NORMAL GOOD: INCOME GOES UP --- CONSUMPTION INCREASES INCOME GOES DOWN -- CONSUMPTION GOES DOWN
INFERIOR GOOD : INCOME GOES UP -- CONSUMPTION DECLINES INCOME GOES DOWN -- CONSUMPTION INCREASES
Income ElasticityCan be negative (inferior) or positive (normal)
DEMAND SHIFTERS • SHIFTS IN POPULATION • SHIFTS IN INCOME • SHIFTS IN THE PRICE OF COMPETING PRODUCTS
GOODS MAY BE SUBSTITUTES OR COMPLEMENTARY OR INDEPENDENT
SUBSTITUTE GOODS WOULD BE LIKE COFFEE AND TEA IF THE PRICE OF COFFEE INCREASES THE DEMAND FOR TEA WOULD SHIFT OUT.
COMPLEMENTARY GOODS ARE GOODS THAT ARE CONSUMED TOGETHER -- LIKE BACON AND EGGS. IF THE PRICE OF BACON INCREASES THE DEMAND FOR EGGS MAY SHIFT INWARDS.
INDEPENDENT GOODS HAVE NO APPARENT RELATIONSHIP. A PRICE CHANGE IN ONE HAS NO IMPACT ON THE DEMAND FOR THE OTHER.
Cross Price Elasticity% Change in Consumption of Good B/% Change in Price of Good A
