If a good is normal, then on increase in income will result in ar) a increanse in the demand for the good b decrease in the demand for the good

Explanation / Answer

12. d) falls, the quantity demanded of the good rises.

Law of demand states that increase in price causes decrease in quantity demanded of good and vice-versa, keeping all other factors constant. It shows inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded.

13. a) is the sum of all individual demand curves.

Market demand curve is the sum total of all individual demand curves. It is the horizontal summation of individual demand curve.

14. c) rightward shift of a demand curve.

When demand of commodity increases due to change in factors other than the price of commodity itself then there is increase in demand and this causes rightward shift of demand curve.

15. a) increase in the demand for the good.

Normal goods are those goods whose income effect is positive which means demand increases with increase in the income of consumer and vice-versa.
