Effects of a Price ChangeEffects of a Price Change What happens when a commodity’s What happens when a commodity s
price decreases?– Substitution effect: the commodity

Slutsky’s Effects for Normal Goodsy
Since both the substitution and income effects increase demandincome effects increase demand when own-price falls, a normal good’s ordinary demand curvegood s ordinary demand curve slopes down.
The Law of Downward-Sloping Demand therefore always applies toDemand therefore always applies to normal goods.

Slutsky’s Effects for Income-Inferior Goods
Some goods are income-inferior (i.e. demand is reduced by higherdemand is reduced by higher income).Th b i i d i ff The substitution and income effects oppose each other when an income-inferior good’s own price changes.
