Price change income and substittution effects
1) Economists separate the impact of a price change into a substitution effect and income effect. The substitution effect is due to changes in relative prices, while the income effect is due to changes in purchasing power.
2) There are two main methods to decompose the price effect: the Hicksian method and the Slutsky method. The Hicksian method isolates the substitution effect by holding utility constant, while the Slutsky method does so by holding purchasing power constant.
3) For normal goods, the substitution and income effects reinforce each other, ensuring demand falls when price rises. Rare inferior goods can see opposing effects, potentially causing demand to rise with price - known as Giffen goods.

Conference paper-11-9-2017
This document summarizes a research study on the use of value management in the Bruneian construction industry. The study aimed to identify problems and solutions to implementing value management, as well as understand design teams' perceptions of it. A questionnaire survey was distributed to 233 professionals, with 72 responses received. The results showed that a lack of local value management guidelines and standards was identified as the main reason it is not widely used. Adequate training was seen as the most significant solution. Most respondents felt that value management is not encouraged enough and its application is uncertain. This suggests developing value management should be a priority.

This document presents a feasibility study for a proposed mixed residential and commercial development in Puchong, Selangor, Malaysia. It analyzes the development under a "sell-then-build" concept, finding it generates a positive net present value of RM8.5 million, indicating viability. However, analyzing the project under a "build-then-sell" concept finds it would result in significant negative cash flow, requiring additional financing and increasing costs such that the developer's profit would decrease from 43% to 34.5%, rendering the project unviable. The use of a build-then-sell model is therefore not recommended for this development.
