Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A good is a normal good if an increase in incomes leads to an increase in demand for a good. Most goods are normal goods. An example of a normal good is new clothes. A good is an inferior good if an increase in income leads to a decrease in demand for the good. Second-hand clothing that can be purchased at thrift stores is an inferior good.
