Title: Giffen goods
Post by: Md. Alamgir Hossan on April 15, 2017, 04:54:08 PM
A rare type of good, where an increase in price causes an increase in demand. The reason is that the income effect of a rise in the price causes you to buy more of this cheap good because you can’t afford more expensive goods. For example, if the price of wheat rises, a poor peasant may not be able to afford meat anymore, so has to buy more wheat.
