- Over the years, the demand for textiles in Country A has grown in spite of rising prices. How would you reconcile this fact with the law of demand?arrow_forwardFactors affecting demand and supply are the various factors that influence the quantity of a good or service that buyers (consumers) are willing to purchase and the quantity that sellers (producers) are willing to produce and sell, respectively. Understanding the factors is important for businesses, policymakers, and consumers to make informed decisions about pricing, production, and consumption. The prediction is that global consumption of crude oil will exceed production by 20 million barrels this year, which means there will be a shortage of supply. This could lead to further price increases if demand continues to grow, which would result in higher costs for consumers and businesses. However, this imbalance is likely to be corrected over time as higher prices incentivize more production, while lower demand could lead to a reduction in consumption. Additionally, new sources of supply could come up or existing sources could increase their output in response to higher prices. In the…arrow_forwardQ11arrow_forward
