Increase in price of inferior good?
Inferior goods are goods that the consumer in a sense does not need to continue using. In other words, he buys it because it's cheap. So if the price increases, he will find the next cheapest item and switch to it.Also, if your income rises, you may feel that the inferior good is "too cheap" for you and switch to something more expensive.As an example, you buy Internet from Verizon because of the cheap cost. If Verizon raises their rates, then you may switch to Comcast.
