The good is called a normal good ( Positive income effect ) For some goods, when income increases, the quantity demanded decreases at each price level. These goods are called inferior goods. ( Negative income effect ) CE : demand and supply 9 Shift of the Demand Curve • The price of other goods Substitute goods ( Good X and Good Y ) When the price of good X increases, the demand for good Y increases. Complements ( Good X and Good Y ) When the price of good X increases, the demand for Good Y decreases. CE : demand and supply 10 Shift of the Demand Curve • The change in preference/fashion The demand for a good increases when it becomes fashionable to consume the good. CE : demand and supply 11 Shift of the Demand Curve • Expectation of future price When consumers expect the price of a good to increase in the future, they will consume more of it now. CE : demand and supply 12 Shift of the Demand Curve • The size of the population An increase in the size of population will increase the demand for goods. CE : demand and supply 13 Shift of the Demand Curve • Derived demand ( the demand for factors of production ) ( 衍生 需求 ) When the demand for a good increases, the demand for the factor inputs will increase.
