Question
Explain the impact on demand of complementary goods.
Solution
Complementary goods are goods that are typically used together, meaning that the consumption of one good enhances the consumption of the other. Examples include cars and gasoline, printers and ink cartridges, or mobile phones and SIM cards. The demand for complementary goods is interconnected, and changes in the price or demand for one good can significantly impact the demand for its complement.
The demand for complementary goods is closely linked. Changes in the price, availability, or attractiveness of one good directly affect the demand for its complement. Understanding this relationship is crucial for businesses and policymakers as they consider pricing strategies, market conditions, and economic policies.
