Concept Introduction:

Aggregate Demand Curve (AD): It shows how price and the quantity demanded are related to each other. The curve is negatively slopped which means that when prices rise the quantity demanded falls.

Aggregate Supply Curve (AS): It shows how price and the quantity supplied are related to each other. The curve is positively slopped which means that when prices rise, the quantity supplied also rises. The curve depends on the duration of time.

Short Run Aggregate Supply (SRAS): It is a positively slopped curve in which supply increases when price rises. The reason for upward slopping is that the wages are sticky in the short run due to formal or informal contracts. At higher aggregate prices there is higher profit leading to high level of output.

Long Run Aggregate Supply (LRAS): It is a vertical curve which means it is independent of price. When price increases there is no change in quantity supplied. In the long run nominal wages are not fixed rather it can be negotiated.

Consumer Confidence Index (CCI): It is an index which indicates the confidence of consumers to spend in the coming future. It is measured to know the economy status in the near future.

They also produce a lot of dates because of their extensive agricultural, infrastructure, and centuries-old date-growing expertise. Conversely, the U.S., there aren't many places in Canada and California that are suitable for date farming, only a select few, like the Coachella Valley, in California can produce dates on a large scale. Although California produces some dates, it is not as much as countries like Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Depending only on U.S., because of increased labor and production costs, dates grown in this way may have a limited supply and raise prices. We can obtain a greater supply of dates at competitive prices while maintaining consistent quality by…
