QUESTION 2 Assume that the market for cage-free eggs is perfectly competitive. All else equal, as farmers find it less profitable to produce and sell cage-free eggs in this market the supply curve will shift to the right, the demand curve will shift to the left, and the equilibrium price will decrease. the supply curve will shift to the left and the equilibrium price will increase. the demand curve will shift to the left and the equilibrium price will decrease. the supply curve will shift to the left, the demand curve will shift to the left, and the equilibrium price will increase.

8. Short-run and long-run effects of a shift in demand Suppose that the tempeh industry is initially operating in long-run equilibrium at a price level of $5 per pound of tempeh and quantity of 100 million pounds per year. Suppose a leading foodie video blogger raises awareness for a scholarly article that links tempeh consumption to premature hair loss and unhealthy skin. The viral video is expected to cause consumers to demand less tempeh at every price. In the short run, firms will respond by producing the same amount of tempeh and running at a loss Shift the demand curve, the supply curve, or both on the following graph to illustrate these short-run effects of the viral video.
