Describe a scenario (real-life or fictitious) that reflects each of the following cases (Q.5.1-Q.5.3).
Thereafter, graphically illustrate and explain each scenario in each case clearly showing the impact
of the change on the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity of your chosen good.
(In cases where you simultaneously change demand and supply, assume that they change by the
same magnitude).
Q.5.1 An increase in demand (while supply remains constant).
