Deriving Individual DemandDefinition
• Price Consumption Curve: – Holding income and the prices of other goods constant, the price
consumption curve for a good is the set of optimal bundles as the price of the good varies.

Engel CurvesEven More Definitions
• Normal Good:– A good whose quantity demanded rises as income rises.
• Inferior Good: – A good whose quantity demanded falls as income rises.
Important :Both these definitions assume prices do not change!

Income & Substitution EffectsDefinitions
• Substitution Effect: – The component of the total effect of a price change that results from the
associated change in the relative attractiveness of other goods.
• Income Effect: – The component of the total effect of a price change that results from the
associated change in real purchasing power.

Derivation of Market Demand From Individual Demands
• Once we have everyone’s individual demand, we need to find the market demand.
• The market demand for a product is the horizontal sum of individual demands.– The sum of individual quantity demands for alternative prices.
• Suppose we only have two people Mr. A and Ms. B:– QA = 50 – 5P
– QB = 30 – 2P
![Page 18: 1 Individual & Market Demand APEC 3001 Summer 2007 Readings: Chapter 4 in Frank](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062715/56649d8b5503460f94a72d94/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Summary
• For P 15: QM = 0
• For 15 > P 10: QM = QB = 30 – 2P
• For 10 > P 0: QM = QA + QB = 50 – 5P + 30 – 2P = 80 – 7P
Important Word of Caution: This works so well because we arelooking at quantity demanded as a function of price. If we hadwritten P = 10 – 0.2QB & P = 15 – 0.5QA, we would need to solvethese demands in terms of quantity before adding up. Price isthe same for both individuals, but the quantity demanded neednot be the same.

Price Elasticity of Demand
• Slope of Demand: Characterizes the sensitivity of quantity demanded to price.– But is this the best way measure this relationship?
– No, because the slope isn’t unit free.• Suppose the demand for bagels is Q1 = 1200 – 24P where Q1 is the quantity
demanded of individual bagels and P is the price of individual bagels.
• This demand for bagels can also be written as Q12 = 100 – 2P where Q12 is the quantity demanded of a dozen bagels and P is the price of individual bagels.
• Looking at the slopes of these demand curves, one might conclude that the first is more sensitive to price than the second.
• This is also a problem if we want to compare price sensitivity for different products: milk & bagels.

What does the price elasticity of demand tells us?
• It tells us how sensitive the quantity demanded is to price.
• It tells us how a price increase will affect total revenue (TR) from the sale of a product.
TR = PQD = PD(P)
TR’ = D(P) + PD’(P)
TR’ = D(P)(1 + )
Therefore, for < -1 or | | > 1, TR’ < 0; for = -1 or | | = 1, TR’ = 0; and for > -1 or | | < 1, TR’ > 0.

Determinants of the Price Elasticity of Demand
• Substitution Possibilities:– If there are lots of substitutes available, the demand for a good is more
elastic.
• Budget Share: – If more of your total income is spend on a good, the demand for that good
is more elastic.
• Direction of the Income effect: – Normal goods tend to be more elastic than inferior goods because the
income effect reinforces the substitution effect.
• Time: – When there is more time available for individuals to respond to price
changes, demand is more elastic.

What does the income elasticity of demand tell us?
• It tells us how sensitive the quantity demanded is to change in income.– For normal goods, > 0.

• But we can even refine this classification:– For necessities, 1 > > 0.
– For luxuries, > 1.
