Imagine a vending machine that would charge more for hot drinks—coffee, tea, and cocoa—during cold weather. What is your opinion of a temperature-sensitive vending machine? Consumers who live in colder climates might pay more over a longer time period each year than consumers who live in warmer climates. Would your opinion change if alternatives were nearby, such as a convenience store or a vending machine that is not temperature-sensitive? Do you think such a machine would be successful? Why or why not?
There are many categories of goods available in the market namely, normal, inferior and luxury goods. At the same time, many factors could affect their behaviours in terms of demand and supply. From your understanding what would be the effect of inferior goods when the income of the consumer drops? You are required to discuss this scenario using relevant graphs.
What is a good or service that charges different rates on different groups of people (e.g., gender, age, income class)? Discuss why the difference in charge exists.
