- c. Consider the demand for wheat illustrate the following scenario: A gluten free (wheat free) diet has become an increasingly popular fad diet. More people, now than ever, are eating a wheat - free diet. d. Consider the supply of cotton illustrate the following scenario: Government regulations cause the production of cotton to become more expensive per unit. Can you draw the graphsarrow_forward8. Shifts in supply or demand I The following graph plots the market for scones in Denver, where there are always over 1,000 bakeries. Suppose the municipal government, in an attempt to increase the local tax base, issues $1,000 vouchers to each household that moves to Denver. As a result, many new families move into the city. Show the effect of this change on the market for scones by shifting one or both of the curves on the following graph, holding all else constant. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. PRICE (Dollars per scone) QUANTITY (Scones) Supply Demand Demand Supply ? Now suppose Congress passes a tax cut that increases the income of Denver residents. If scones are a normal good, this will cause the demand for scones to increasearrow_forwardWhat is the difference between a "change in demand" and a change in "quantity demanded"?

- HWICH DA) The following graph presents the market for bikes in 2017. Between 2017 and 2018, the equilibrium quantity of bikes remained constant, but the equilibrium price of bikes decreased. Given this information, you can conclude that between 2017 and 2018, the supply of bikes Increased and the demand for bikes increased Make changes to the graph to illustrate your answer by showing the positions of the supply and demand curves in 2018. Note: Select and drag one or both of the curves to the desired position. Curves will snap into position, so if you try to move a curve and it snaps backe to its original position, just drag it a little farther."

The equilibrium price = 2. 3. At a price of $2,500... At a price of $1,000... (1) Is there excess demand or excess supply? (2) How many million units? (3) Are PC inventories rising or falling?
