- Assuming an increase in Demant and decrease in Supply, which of the following statements is TRUE? The price of the good will decrease. The quantity of the good will definitely decrease. The price of this good will definitely increase. There will be a permanent shortage of this good. The new equilibrium quantity may increase, decrease, or stay the same. A surplus of this good will result from these changes in Supply and Demand. What new equiLibrium quantity will result depends on the relative magnitude of the changes and the shapes of the Demand and Supply curves.
