14. Over the past few year’s consumer tastes and the number of buyers in the market for a game called ‘pickle ball’ have increased dramatically. Thus, the demand for tickets to pickle ball events has increased. Before this all started the equilibrium price of a ticket to a pickle ball event was negative. This means that: A few years ago, there would have been a surplus of tickets even at a price of zero, now the invisible hand has pushed prices to greater than zero. A few years ago, the quantity of tickets demanded was less than quantity supplied. Pickle ball event tickets resembled the market for recyclable cardboard a few years ago Greater demand for pickle ball tournament tickets will lead to a greater demand – and higher pay – for professional pickle ball players. All of the above. B and D only
