In November 2021, there is a simultaneous change in the market for Covid-19 vaccines in China.
Total demand has increased by 50% and the supply increased by 70% in the domestic market
due to technological advances in the production methods. What should you observe at the new
market equilibrium point based on this situation? (Hint: both curves are normal in shapes)
O a. Price decreases, equilibrium quantity exchanged decreases
O b. Price decreases, equilibrium quantity exchanged increases
O c. Price increases, equilibrium quantity exchanged increases
d. Price increases, equilibrium quantity exchanged is undetermined
