Answer 1

1) Economist suggest that a market can falling there is not a complete and symmetric information in the market to all parties related to the transactions. In other words market can fall or become inefficient when there is a asymmetric information in the market. Asymmetric information refers to the situation in which one party in the transaction has more information that other. In such a cases the market cease to work efficiently.

2) if the price of a good falls by 10% and the percentage decrease in total amount consumer spend on the good is 5%, then the good is inelastic. Inelastic goods has less degree(<1) of sensitivity to the change in price so that the quality of good doesn't increases in the same proportion as the fall in price.

3) A firm that has a branded produced is highly recognised firm in the market by consumers it has its own reputation and image regarding quality of product.
