Question: Sally runs a vegetable stand. The following table shows two points on the demand curve for the heirloom tomatoes she sells:

                  Price                  Quantity demanded per week

                $ 3.00                         200,000

                 $ 1.75                         300,000

lowering the price from $3.00 to $1.75 results in an output effect of and a price effect of

Output effect of = 1.75 * 100 = $175,000

              Price effect of =  1.25 * 200000

                                      = -$250,000

Explanation:

Output effect: there would be an increase in quantity sold by 100,000 units at $1.75. This gives the out to be sold

Price effect: since Sally reduces the price to $1.75, she would make a lose of $1.25 ($3.00 - $1.75) on the 200,000 units that could have been sold at $3.00

Lowering the price from $3.50 to $2.25 results in an output effect of $2.25 and a price effect of -$1.25
