Concepts of Economic Fluctuations and Aggregate Demand and Supply

Consumer income vs. Demand

The income of the consumer has a significant effect on the amount of good that the consumer is likely to purchase freely; this is influenced by the nature and type of good. For the majority of products, there is a direct connection between them and the income (McEachern, 2000). This means that the income of the consumer may influence the number of goods that the consumer purchase freely. This is an indication that when the consumer income rises, the demand for these goods is likely to rise; consequently, when the income level goes down, the need for those goods goes down. The types of products are termed as standard goods.
