In order to raise tax revenue and reduce cigarette sales, the government decided to impose a new alcohol tax on all beer sales. One year after introducing the tax, the government found that the tax was most effective in reducing beer sales among young people but did not have a significant effect on others. What can this information tell you about the demand curves?
All of the following are held constant in constructing a demand curve except
income
tastes and preferences
price of the good under consideration
number of buyers
What would happen to a specific demand curve if one of the demand factors changed? Give an example
of demand, and use properly labelled graphs to show your instances.

Two economic terms describe these two relationships-substitutes and complements. An increase in the price of Good A increases demand for Good B when the two goods are substitutes. An increase in the price of Good A decreases demand for Good B when the two goods are complements.The graph shows the shift in the demand for good B when the price of good A increases depending on whether the two goods are substitutes or complements.

Suppose a new article is published claiming that Houston has abnormally high levels of pollution compared to the rest of the region. Due to air quality concerns, a significant number of families move out of the city. Show the effect of this change on the market for electric guitars 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.
