Question 3 – 25%
During the Christmas holiday season, the price of Christmas trees increases and the
quantity demanded for trees also increases. Does it reflect change in quantity
demanded or change in demand? Support your answer with the use of a diagram. Label
your diagram with appropriate variables on X axis and Y axis.
Match the Determinants with the appropriate change in the market for chocolate.
Consider the market demand for donuts. Complete a table by indicating whether an event will cause a movement among the demand curve for donuts or a shift of the demand curve for donuts, holding all else constant. Event: A decrease in income of consumers (movement along or shift)
Event: A decrease in the number of consumers (movement along or shift)
Event: A decrease in the price of donuts (movement along or shift)

Be sure to label your axes and curves. There is a similar graph in your textbook to look to for a model.arrow_forwardWe know that a change in the price of a product causes a movement along the demand curve. Suppose consumers believe that prices will be rising in the future. How will that affect demand for the product in the present? Can you show this graphically?

What adjustments would the market make as a result that would benefit the economy? Group of answer choices The price of personal protective equipment would fall because producers could not meet the demand at lower prices. The price of personal protective equipment would rise, signaling to producers that more production was needed. The price of personal protective equipment would rise, signaling to consumers that they should purchase less personal protective equipment. The supply of personal protective equipment fell as production became more expensive.arrow_forward
