If demand is price inelastic, a decrease in price will cause a

     a. larger percentage increase in quantity demanded than the percentage decrease in price,

         thereby decreasing total revenue.

     b. smaller percentage decrease in quantity demanded than the percentage decrease in price,

         thereby decreasing total revenue.

     c. smaller percentage decrease in quantity demanded than the percentage decrease in price,

         thereby increasing total revenue.

     d. larger percentage decrease in quantity demanded than the percentage decrease in price,

         thereby decreasing total revenue.

      e.none of these choices are correct

.          Suppose that there is a recession and you observe that the market price of new cars decreases and

             the market price of used cars increases. This observation is consistent with:

  1. new cars being a normal good
  2. used cars being an inferior good
  3. new cars being an inferior good and used cars being a normal good
  4. new cars being a normal good and used cars being an inferior good

8.         Suppose that builders of new single family homes and prospective first time buyers of single

            family homes believe that housing prices will fall in the future. This would lead to:

  1. market price to rise and quantity to be ambiguous
  2. market price to fall and quantity to be ambiguous
  3. market quantity to fall and price to be ambiguous
  4. market quantity to rise and price to be ambiguous

.       The demand for good X will be more elastic

a.         the larger the number of substitutes

b.         the larger percentage good X takes in the consumer's budget.

c.         the longer the time period consumers have to adjust to a change in the price of good X

e.         all of these answers are correct

Find the missing entry that is labelled as 'a'. (answer to 4 decimals)
(b)

[2 marks] Suppose that a group of 10 adults are randomly selected, and 6 of them have been told that they have hypertension. Is this a significantly high number that would suggest that the given percentage of adults who have been told that they have hypertension (i.e., 23.53%) is not correct?

(A) Yes, because 0.0122 is less than .05.

(B) No, because 0.0122 is less than .05.

(C) No, because 6 a not a lot more than expected.

(D) No, because 0.0145 is less than .05.

(E) Yes, because 0.0145 is less than .05.

(F) No, because 0.0475 is less than .05.

(G) Yes, because 6 a lot more than expected.

(H) Yes, because 0.0475 is less than .05.
