Exam format for UOL Introduction to economics has changed, so why are the notes and tutorials still the same? Join our intro to econs tuition for the new syllabus!




I am really shock when I saw that the notes and tutorials that they are using for UOL introduction to economics is still the same from the past years. The exam format has changed to MCQ and long question rather than short and long questions. As such, I feel that the notes used in the private schools in Singapore are outdated.  

We told our students that what we are going to do will be different from the school and we will be focusing on the exam rather than going through many of the questions from their tutorials that might not be tested any more. They have feedback to us that they love our teaching methods!  

As such, we officially crafted a UOL INTRODUCTION TO ECONOMICS exam focused syllabus focusing a lot more on the concepts and techniques as well as practices that are more relevant for the exam. 

As our demand rose, we know that we have to move away from our 1 to 1 lesson and advance to group lessons. We decided to launch our group lessons and we will only start with a minimum group of 10. Each student will only need to pay $50 per hour and each lesson is 2 hours each. Details are as follow (Details will be finalised once 10 students sign up): 

Duration: 2 hours
Frequency: Once a week (Saturday or Sunday)
Price: $50 per hour
Location: Dhoby Ghaut

Substitution and Income effect - normal, inferior and giffen goods. UOL INTRODUCTION TO ECONOMICS concepts explained



What are Income and Substitution Effects?

When the price of a good changes, there will be two effects on the consumer. 

Firstly, there will be a price effect where the price of the goods have changes relative to the other product. 


Secondly, there will be an income effect where the change in the price of the goods will change the real income of the consumer. 


Substitution Effect 

It's the effect of relative price change, without changes in real income. It is the bundle that would make the consumer just as happy as before the price change. In lay man term, you can think of it like, when the price of goods A has gone up, how much would you substitute it with another goods?


To find this point we consider a budget line characterized by the new prices but with a level of income such that it is tangent to the initial indifference curve. 


This point is characterized by two things. (1) It is on the same indifference curve as the original consumption bundle; AND (2) it is the point where a budget line that is parallel to the new budget line is just tangent to initial indifference curve. This "intermediate" budget line is attempting to hold real income fixed so we can isolate the substitution effect. 


Income effect 



It's the effect of  the change in real income. For example, when the price goes up the consumer is not able to buy as many bundles that she could purchase before. This means that in real terms she has become worse off. As such, an increase in the price of goods X would have decreased the real income of the consumer. 

Income effect helps to determine if the good is normal or inferior:


1. Normal goods are goods whose demand increases when income goes up. 


2. Inferior goods are goods whose demand decreases when income goes down. 


Total effect and law of demand

Unlike the Substitution Effect, the Income Effect can be both positive and negative depending on whether the product is a normal or inferior good. By the way we constructed them, the Substitution Effect plus the Income Effect equals the total effect of the price change. 


For normal goods, substitution and income effect usually goes in the same direction. For inferior goods, the effects move in opposite directions with substitution effect taking precedent over income effect. These made the demand curve downward sloping. 


Giffen goods

However, Giffen goods are a type of inferior goods whose demand increases as price increases, thus violating the law of demand as the substitution effect is smaller than income effect. This implies that giffen goods have upward sloping demand curve. 


Referring to the graph below:
A to C is the Substitution effect
C to B is the Income effetc
