Assume that jelly beans and chocolate bars are substitute goods. If the price of jelly beans increases, what will happen to the demand for chocolate bars?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Demand for chocolate bars increases.

Explanation:

There are two goods: jelly beans and chocolate bars. They are substitute goods. We know that there is a positive relationship between the price of one good and the demand for other good. The substitute goods are generally have a positive cross price elasticity of demand.

This means that as the price of jelly beans increases then as a result the demand for chocolate bars increases even if the price chocolate remains the same.
