    the income elasticity is - 0.6 and the good is an inferior good.

    Explanation:

    Data provided as per the question below:-

    Percentage change in quantity demanded = - 3%

    Percentage change in income = 5%

    The computation of Income elasticity of demand is shown below:-

    Income elasticity of demand = Percentage change in quantity demanded : Percentage change in income

    = - 3% : 5%

    = - 0.6

    The good is a lesser good since the quantity demanded does not increase but it falls by that profits.
