Agenda / Topics covered

- How to understand Elasticity

- Why on earth the S/D curves shift by taxation

- Welfare and Dead Weight Loss.

- The secret relation of MRS(Marginal Rate of Substitute) and indifference curve

Page 4: 170902 entrepreneurial economics1

Quick questions

- Do you like mathematics?

- How about calculus (especially differential)

- if you are not good at calculus, might [advanced] sectionis difficult. But this is not today’s scope.

- I have one-day long calculus entrance course as well

Elasticity is Sensitivity.

Price Elasticity means how sensitive to price they are?

I change the price Market reacts.

ElasticitySummary and special case

𝑒 > 1

𝑒 = 1𝑒 < 1

𝑒 = ∞

𝑒 = 0

If you change price,Nothing happens.So, price sensitivity = 0

If you change priceBit higher than beforeEveryone run away.

Bit lower than beforeEveryone buy.

So, Infinitely sensitive.

Value Price down Price up

|𝑒| < 1 R decrease↓ R increase↑

|𝑒| = 1 R same R same

Demand Curve Before

1.Demand Curve should be affected.

2.Demand must be lower than before, because they should pay +$10 each than market price.

3.So, taxation makes Demand curve shift inward.

We all are facing trade-offs

- Because fundamental assumption economist have is β€œpeople are facing trade-off”

The management of society’s resources is important because resources are scarce. Scarcity means that society has limited resources and therefore cannot produce all the goods and services people wish to have. -Nicholas Gregory Mankiw

Consumer’s preference and Utility

If you are rational consumer,(Lecture note 3)

β€’ Complete binary orderingβ€’ Between any two bundles of goods, a consumer

can tell whether she prefers one to another or indifferent.β€’ Reflectivity

β€’ Any bundle is just as good as any other identical bundle.β€’ Transitivity

β€’ If a consumer prefers bundle 1 to bundle 2 and prefers bundle 2 to bundle 3, then she must prefer bundle 1 to bundle 3.

β€’ Non-satiationβ€’ Consumers prefer more units of a good than less.

Let us think in Qualitative first.

You like Cake very much.But cake cost you $5 each and Sweet pastry cost you $2 each.

So, everyday you eat(morning) 1 pastry $2(lunch) 2 pastry $4(dinner) 1 cake $5

In total, you spend $11 every day.

One day, you thought you are theLuckiest girl in the world!Cakes are sold just $1 today!

So, decide(morning) 1 cake $1(lunch) 2 cake $2(dinner) 1 cake $1

This is substitution effect.You like more cake than Pastry.
