To do so, you must consider factors that can affect the supply of and demand for heating oil. Determinants of the demand for heating oil include household income, the price of an oil furnace (a complementary good for heating oil), and the price of natural gas (a substitute good for heating oil). Determinants of the supply of heating oil include the cost of crude oil and the cost of refining crude oil into home heating oil. Use the calculator to help you answer the following questions. You will not be graded on any changes you make to the calculator. Initially, the price of natural gas is $10 per 1,000 cubic feet, the price of an oil furnace is $2,000, the average annual household income is $40,000, the cost of crude oil is $25 per barrel of heating oil, and the cost of refining oil is $15 per barrel of heating oil.
