The correct answer is that the price elasticity of demand is elastic.
Price elasticity occurs when a change in price results in a change in demand. In this example, a 20 percent increase in the price of the drinks resulted in a 25 percent decrease in the demand for the product. Because the price increase resulted in a demand decrease the price is elastic.

Explanation:
Income Elasticity of Demand(IED)= Percentage change in quantity demanded/ Percentage change in income
-Percentage change in Q:
%Change in quantity demanded= (q2-q1/q1) = (10-8)/8= 0.25
-Percentage change in Income:
%Change in income= (i2-i1/i1) = (4,500-4,000)/4,000= 0.125
IED= 0.25/0.125= 2
This indicates that the Shaffers are very sensitive to changes in income when it comes to eating out. Which means that changes in income will change significantly the number of times they eat out.
2. Restaurant meals are normal goods, in this case, because when income rises, they ate more in restaurants, then the units consumed for this good increase too.
Answer:
At one time, the centrally planned economy of China encouraged farmers to produce iron in their backyards, rather than have factories make iron. This proved unsuccessful, since most of the farmers' iron was of poor quality. Why do you think this approach was unsuccessful? How could this experiment become a success in a free market economy?
The reason why the approach whereby farmers make iron in their backyard could not work out is as a result of not being inclined in that market as they are only skilled in agriculture, also they do not understand the rhetorics of the business.
The experiment would be a success in a free market as anyone is allowed to sell such product, this gives room for competition and helps to price reduction which is good for the consumers, also it would help in improvement of such product's quality because of competition involved
