Answer to Question 1

Influences that change the demand for a good include:
 The prices of related goods. A rise (fall) in the price of a substitute increases (decreases) the demand for the first good. A rise (fall) in the price of a complement decreases (increases) the demand for the first good.
 The expected future price of the good. A rise (fall) in the expected future price of a good increases (decreases) the demand in the current period.
 Income. An increase (decrease) in income increases (decreases) the demand for a normal good. An increase in income decreases (increases) the demand for an inferior good.
 Expected future income and credit. An increase (decrease) in expected future income or credit increases (decreases) the demand.
 The population. An increase (decrease) in population increases (decreases) the demand.
 People's preferences. If people's preferences for a good rise (fall), the demand increases (decreases).

Answer to Question 2

When the price of a good is greater than the marginal cost to produce that good, society will be better off if more of that good is produced.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
