प्रश्न
Good X and Good Y are substitute goods. If price of Good X increases, discuss briefly its likely impact on the demand for Good Y.
उत्तर
Substitute goods refer to those goods that are consumed in place of each other. For example Tea and coffee, etc. In the given question, two goods X and Y are substitute goods. If the price of Good X increases, the demand for Good Y will increase. If the price of the X (substitute good) rises, then demand for X will fall. As X and Y are substitute goods, so the demand for Y will increase since it is a cheaper good now. This shifts the initial demand curve for Y parallelly rightwards.

The Coca-Cola Company is an American multinational beverage company, with its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia.

However, the company is best known for its flagship product Coca-Cola which was originally intended to be a patented medicine invented in 1886 by pharmacist John Smith Pemberton in Columbus, Georgia. The Coca-Cola products can be termed as normal goods and in August 2019 Coca-Cola introduced a new product into the market, that is, zero sugar where the demand has increased for the product in the market.
