Consider a general demand function for a good, X, that has been estimated as:
Q(d) = 200 â 8*Px + 2*Py + .4*M, where
Px is the price of the good being studied
Py is the price of a related good, Y
M is per capita income
a) Are X and Y complements, substitutes, or neither? How do you know?
b) Is X a normal good or an inferior good? How do you know?
c) Calculate the direct demand function, assuming that the price of Y is $6 and that per capita income is $38,000.
d) Calculate the inverse demand function, using your answer to c).
