Economics Concept Introduction
Any change in demand will shift the demand curve while any change in quantity demanded will cause the movement along the demand curve.
The demand for a commodity will change due to the following reasons:
- Change in price of relative goods (substitutes and complementary products)
- Change in taste and preferences
- Change in peoples’ income level
- Change in expectations
- Change in number of consumers
Any change in price of the commodity changes the quantity demanded.
