A will either 5
increase, decrease, or stay the same, and the equilibrium quantity of
good A will decrease.
Note, that you will lose 50% of the mark for this question if you choose the incorrect option.
If you are not sure about the answer and do not want to guess, choose the “Unsure” option. You will neither receive marks for the question
nor will you lose marks for choosing this option.
True
False
Unsure
If the price of a substitute good decreases the quantity demanded thereof will increase. Consumers will buy less of good A, and the demand
for good A decreases. A decrease in demand is shown by a leftward shift of the demand curve leading to a decrease in the equilibrium price
and the equilibrium quantity.
If the price of an input increases, the cost of production will increase and the supply will decrease. The decrease in supply leads to a leftward
shift of the supply curve and the equilibrium price increases and the equilibrium quantity decreases.
The equilibrium price can either increase, decrease or stay the same the quantity demanded will definitively decrease.

Unsure
If the price of oil increases, the supply of plastic bags will decrease. The decrease in the supply can be shown by a leftward shift of the supply
curve. The equilibrium price increases while the equilibrium quantity decreases.
