answer
increase
question
what happens when the quantity demanded exceeds the quantity supplied there is a....
answer
shortage
question
what naturally happens after there is a shortage of a product
answer
the price and quantity supplied of the product both increases
question
what happens when the demand for a good or service INCREASES?
answer
the equilibrium price and quantity both increase
question
what happens to the equilibrium price and quantity when the demand for a good or service DECREASES?
answer
the equilibrium price and quantity both decrease
question
what happens when supply falls for a product?
answer
the supply curve shifts leftward
question
what does an INCREASE in supply lead to
answer
a FALL in equilibrium price and RISE in equilibrium quantity
question
what does an DECREASE in supply lead to? (with respect to equilibrium price and quantity)
answer
a RISE in equilibrium price and FALL in equilibrium quantity
question
when demand increases and supply decreases, the equilibrium price (rises/falls/is ambiguous) but the change in the equilibrium quantity (rises/falls/is ambiguous)
answer
rises; is ambiguous
question
when demand decreases and supply increases, the equilibrium price (rises/falls/is ambiguous) but the change in the equilibrium quantity (rises/falls/is ambiguous)
answer
falls; is ambiguous
question
when both demand and supply INCREASE, the equilibrium price (rises/falls/is ambiguous) but the change in the equilibrium quantity (rises/falls/is ambiguous)
answer
is ambiguous; rises
question
when both demand and supply DECREASE, the equilibrium price (rises/falls/is ambiguous) but the change in the equilibrium quantity (rises/falls/is ambiguous)
