THEORY IN PRACTICE: A COMPLEMENTARY GOOD


SPOTTED - I’ve always been interested in economic theory, and how it applies to the real world. Sometimes it’s a stretch, sometime it’s a leap of imagination and sometimes it's the easiest thing to spot. I spotted [image above] what might be the most brilliant example of the theory of a ‘Complimentary Good’ at a Walgreens. Wikipedia defines the theory as:

“In economics, a complementary good is a good with a negative cross elasticity of demand, in contrast to a substitute good. This means a good's demand is increased when the price of another good is decreased. Conversely, the demand for a good is decreased when the price of another good is increased. If goods A and B are complements, an increase in the price of A will result in a leftward movement along the demand curve of A and cause the demand curve for B to shift in; less of each good will be demanded. A decrease in price of A will result in a rightward movement along the demand curve of A and cause the demand curve B to shift outward; more of each good will be demanded.”

That all sounds like a lot of mumbo jumbo to me, all they’re saying is:

When you buy a computer, you will also need to buy software. Computer hardware and software are therefore complementary goods: two products, for which an increase [or fall] in demand for one leads to an increase [fall] in demand for the other.

It’s great to see that the management at Walgreens has recognized there is a positive correlation between alcohol consumption and the demand for contraceptive goods.

Biorexin Reviews This is true in order to correctly manage Male Enhancement and that is when all is said and done with Best Libido Enhancer. You know, my deputy sometimes mentions, "If you can't beat them, join them." and occasionally you could end it while you're ahead. If you are taking Best Male Enhancement Pills seriously maybe you'll imagine that would be. Easy answer… Do you know Bed Boosters features? I don't do much else right now except for Bed Boosters. That is where the negative connotation comes from. I'm certainly going to use more Best Male Enhancement Pills in the future.

Important information. I am an athlete so your theory is correct. I often seek help for my studies. I often read about plagiarism facts. I advise you to read this information.

I weigh theory is weak to practice. The argument is the same practice that is used in some actions. My training also played a role in my work, but a significant contribution was my fruitful work on the work synopsis writing, my professional level matured, I reached the level of management.
