Determine which scenario below is an example of own-price elasticity.
Tom, a construction foreman, will buy 100 sheets of plywood when the price is $12 per sheet.
He will buy 150 sheets of plywood when the price drops to $10 per sheet.
Which economic concept below is NOT present on the graph shown here?
Change in income
Select the statement that is unlikely to happen when Miguel scales down
from 40 to 25 hours per week, thus lowering his income.
Miguel’s budget constraint will shift outward.
Jim usually goes to the movies with friends on Friday nights at the local movie
theater. This week, the movie theater held over the movie, Anchorman 2, which Jim
saw last week. Jim and his buddies decide to go bowling rather than attend the
movie a second time.

weekend?
Diminishing marginal returns
As the women's soccer coach, Karissa was in charge of choosing and ordering
uniforms. Since the knee socks and shin guards had a unique matching logo, Karissa
only ordered from one particular company. When she ordered them three years ago,
the knee socks were $5 per pair, and the shin guards were $7 per pair. Karissa
ordered 15 pairs of knee socks and 15 pairs of shin guards.
Now the price of the shin guards hasn't changed, but knee socks were $7 per pair.
Karissa decided she would only buy 10 pairs of shin guards this year.
