Elementary consumer theory assumes that prices affect demand only because they affect the budget constraint (BC). By … contrast, several models suggest that prices can affect demand through other channels (e.g. because they signal quality). This … also changes the BC. This paper uses a lab and a field experiment to disentangle BC from non-BC effects of prices on demand …
