Frage 1

Frage
A good will tend to have an inelastic demand if
Antworten
  • The good has many close substitutes
  • The good is a luxury
  • The market is defined very broadly
  • The time horizon is long

Frage 2

Frage
A perfectly elastic demand is represented graphically by a:
Antworten
  • relatively steep demand curve
  • Relatively flat demand curve
  • vertical demand curve
  • Horizontal demand curve

Frage 3

Frage
What effect will an increase in the price have on total revenue, if demand is elastic?
Antworten
  • total revenue will increase
  • total revenue will decrease
  • total revenue will first decrease and then increase
  • total revenue will remain unchanged

Frage 4

Frage
The price elasticity of demand tends to be more elastic:
Antworten
  • at points further up and to the left along the demand curve
  • at points further down into the right along the demand curve
  • when the demand curve becomes steeper
  • when the demand curve is vertical

Frage 5

Frage

  • 0.5
  • 1.5

Antworten
  • Drop, inelastic
  • raise, elastic
  • Drop, elastic
  • Drop, unit elastic

Frage 7

Antworten
  • 1.50
  • 0.67
  • — 1.50
  • — 0.67

Frage 8

Frage
Suppose that a good has an income elasticity of -2.0. This means that the good is:
Antworten
  • normal
  • inferior
  • substitute
  • a complement

Frage 9

Frage
Suppose that two goods have a cross price elasticity of -0.8, this means that these goods are:
Antworten
  • normal
  • inferior
  • a substitute
  • a complement

Frage 10

Frage
The price of good A increases from $4.50 to $5.50. This causes the quantity demanded of good B to increase from 900 to 1100 units per month. Find the cross price elasticity of demand.
Antworten
  • — 1.0
  • + 2.0
  • + 1.0
  • — 2.0

Frage 11

Frage
Suppose that a regulation is in place that does not allow the price of a good to exceed $5. If this price is above the equilibrium price in the market, this would be an example of a:
Antworten
  • binding price ceiling.
  • not binding price ceiling.
  • binding price floor.
  • not binding price floor.

Frage 12

Frage
Suppose that a regulation is in place that does not allow the price of a good to fall below $10. If this price is above the equilibrium price in the market, this would be an example of a:
Antworten
  • binding price ceiling.
  • not binding price ceiling.
  • binding price floor.
  • not binding price floor.

Frage 13

Frage
Suppose that a regulation is in place that does not allow the price of a good to exceed $5. If this price is below the equilibrium price in the market, this would be an example of a:
Antworten
  • binding price ceiling.
  • not binding price ceiling.
  • binding price floor.
  • not binding price floor.

Frage 14

Frage
If a price floor is in place and it is binding, the market will:
Antworten
  • remain in equilibrium, unaffected by the price floor.
  • experience a shortage.
  • experience a surplus.
  • adjust its equilibrium point toward the price floor.

Frage 15

Frage
If a price ceiling is in place and it is binding, the market will:
Antworten
  • remain in equilibrium, unaffected by the price floor.
  • experience a shortage.
  • experience a surplus.
  • adjust its equilibrium point toward the price floor.

Frage 16

Frage
If a price floor is in place and it is not binding, the market will:
Antworten
  • remain in equilibrium, unaffected by the price floor.
  • experience a shortage.
  • experience a surplus.
  • adjust its equilibrium point toward the price floor.

Frage 17

Frage
If a tax is imposed on buyers of a good, the ________ curve of the good will shift ________ by the amount of the tax.
Antworten
  • demand, upward
  • demand, downward
  • supply, upward
  • supply, downward

Frage 18

Frage
If a tax is imposed on sellers of a good, the ________ curve of the good will shift ________ by the amount of the tax.
Antworten
  • demand, upward
  • demand, downward
  • supply, upward
  • supply, downward

Frage 19

Frage
If a tax is imposed on a good and the incidence of the tax ends up falling more heavily on the sellers than on the buyers, this will be because:
Antworten
  • demand is more elastic than supply for that good.
  • demand is less elastic than supply for that good.
  • the tax was imposed on the buyers of the good.
  • the tax was imposed on the sellers of the good.

Frage 20

Frage
If a tax is imposed on a good and the incidence of the tax ends up falling more heavily on the buyers than on the sellers, this will be because:
