Provide a "real life" example of a shift in a supply. In the example you provide, please state whether this shift would be a positive (or to the right) or negative (or to the left) shift to the original supply curve. Please remember price is a change on the curve itself and is "NEVER" a shift factor.

Do these curves behave as expected by demand theory?
If the price of petroleum is rising, we can expect both the supply curve and demand curve to shift leftward.
Suppose one of your friends offered the following argument: a rightward shift in demand will cause an increase in price. The increase in price will cause a rightward shift of the supply curve, which will lead to an offsetting decrease in price. Therefore, it is impossible to tell what effect an increase in demand will have on price. Do you agree with your friend? If not, what is the flaw in your friend’s reasoning?
Suppose the National Institute of Health publishes a study finding that coffee drinking reduces the probability of getting colon cancer. How do you imagine this will affect the market for coffee? Which determinant of demand or supply is being affected? Show graphically with before and after curves on the same axes. How will this change affect the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? Explain your reasoning.
Use the graph below to answer the following question. A straight increasing line labeled S1 with two data points labeled y and x is drawn parallel to another increasing line labeled S2 (to its right). In the market for automobiles, suppose there was a technological advance in the production process for producing automobiles. Which of the following statements correctly illustrates the effect on supply? Multiple Choice The supply curve will shift from S1 to S2. The supply curve will shift from S2 to S1. There will be movement from point x to point y. There will be movement from point y to point x.
Sketch the market described above and indicate the values of the equilibrium price andequilibrium quantity.
Suppose that the demand for a good is described by the inverse demand function p = 10 - 3q and the supply of the good is given by the inverse supply function p = 2 + 2 q: Q:What is the equilibrium price and quantity of the good in this market (use one decimal point)?
In what direction will the supply curve shift if the prices of the raw materials needed to produce goods X are rising? Draw this curve.
Suppose the National Institutes of Health publishes a study finding that coffee drinking increases the probability of getting colon cancer. How do you imagine this will affect the market for coffee? Why? Which determinant of demand or supply is being affected? Show graphically with before- and after-curves on the same axes. How will this change the equilibrium price and quantity of coffee? Explain your reasoning.

If the change of the non-price determinant of supply will cause supply to increase, automatically the movement of the supply curve will be Select one: a. Below the initial supply curve b. Above the initial supply curve c. Beneath the demand curve d. No effect
choose one in the brackets to fill in for the following question: If the wage rate for workers in car manufacturing rises, the (supply curve , quantity supplied ) for cars will [ increase, decrease, remain unchanged ) and the [ demand curve, quantity demanded) for cars will [ increase, remain unchanged, decrease) Consider a competitive market in equilibrium at (Q1,P1). When there is an increase in demand in this market, what exactly happens in this market? Help describe what happens by selecting the correct sequence of events from the drop-down menus below. [Advice: draw this situation in a competitive market diagram.] step 1:( creates an access demand at the original market price, this allows the market to clear at the original market price , this creates an excess supply at the original market price ) step 2: (this puts upward pressure on the price, this puts downward pressure on the price , this does not affect the price in this market ) step 3: ( there is an increase in supply, as…
