Will the equilibrium price of orange juice increase or decrease in each of the following situations? LO7a.
A medical study reporting that orange juice reduces cancer is released at the same time that a freak storm destroys half of the orange crop in Florida.
The prices of all beverages except orange juice fall in half while unexpectedly perfect weather in Florida results in an orange crop that is 20 percent larger than normal.
5. Show how a change in the price of one good affects the supply of another.
Use the graph to show how an increase in the price of organic onions would shift the demand curve, supply curve, or both
curves in the market for tomatoes. Assume that onions and tomatoes are neither complements nor substitutes.
