Summary: | Consumer choice theory defines demand for a normal good as a function of price and non-price factors. This theoretical research will present a baseline model for cigarette consumption while relaxing aspects of classical economic theory. Other factors such as addiction and psychological factors will be incorporated exogenously--although limited-- due to the static nature of the suggested model. A comparison is done to the model of Cobb--Douglas utility functions to illuminate some properties of this model. |
