Consider the market for minivans. For each of the events listed below, decide whether the event shifts the supply or demand curve (or perhaps both); decide in which direction the curve shifts; and use the supply-and-demand diagram to see how the shift changes the equilibrium price and quantity. Provide brief explanation and draw a diagram for each event to illustrate the change from the status quo.

Assume a market for a normal good is currently in equilibrium. If the expected price of the good is lower than the current price, then: Demand will (decrease / increase / not change): Blank 1 Supply will (decrease / increase / not change): Blank 2 Equilibrium price will (decrease / increase / not change): Blank 3 Equilibrium quantity will (decrease / increase / not change): Blank 4
In each of the following scenarios, explain the changes in either supply or demand that would result. If the initial equilibrium price were yet to change, indicate whether a surplus or a shortage would result. Given this, what do you expect will subsequently happen to the price of the good?
