Demand for normal goods increases when income increases, but demand for inferior goods decreases when income increases. In this video, we use the example of a computer and a car to describe the concepts of normal goods and inferior goods and show how a change in income affects the demand for each using a graph of the demand curve.

Opportunity cost is the value of something given up to obtain something else. In this video, we explore the definition of opportunity cost, how to calculate opportunity cost, and how the PPC illustrates opportunity cost. Created by Sal Khan.
In this video, we use the PPCs for two different countries that …
In this video, we use the PPCs for two different countries that each produce two goods in order to create an output table based on the data in the graph. We then use the output table to determine the opportunity costs of producing each good. Finally, we determine which country has a comparative advantage in each good.
