Imagine the market for chocolate bars. Suppose the following things occur simultaneously: A report is released claiming chocolate causes the flu, and stricter worker-safety regulations are implemented in the production of chocolate. What will happen to the equilibrium price and quantity

Respuesta :

Based on the above scenarios, the effect will be as follows:

  • Equilibrium quantity will drop.
  • Equilibrium price will be indeterminate.

What happens when both supply and demand decrease at the same time?

  • Equilibrium quantity will fall as less people are demanding the good and there is less production.
  • Equilibrium price might remain the same if the effect from the decrease in supply matches the effect from the decrease in demand.

Demand will fall as a result of the report accusing chocolate of flu and the supply will drop because hiring people has become harder.
