A decrease in the demand for eggs due to changes in consumer tastes, accompanied by a decrease in the supply of eggs as a result of an outbreak of Avian flu, will result in Group of answer choices

a decrease in the equilibrium quantity of eggs; the equilibrium price may increase or decrease

Explanation:

Here are the options

a decrease in the equilibrium quantity of eggs and no change in the equilibrium price.

a decrease in the equilibrium quantity of eggs; the equilibrium price may increase or decrease.

a decrease in the equilibrium price of eggs; the equilibrium quantity may increase or decrease.

a decrease in the equilibrium price of eggs and no change in the equilibrium quantity.

Only a change in the price of a good leads to a movement along the demand curve of that good. Also, only a change in the price of the good would lead to an increase or decrease in the quantity demanded of that good.

Other factors other than the change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the demand curve. Some of those factors include :

1.a change in consumers' expectation

2.a change in the taste of consumers

3.a change in income

A change in price of a good leads to a movement along the supply curve and not a shift of the supply curve.

Other factors other than a change in the price of the good would lead to a shift of the supply curve. Such factors include :  

1.A change in the price of input  

2.A change in the number of suppliers  

3.Government regulations  

A decrease in the demand for eggs would lead to a leftward shift of the demand curve for eggs. Price and quantity would fall as a result.

a decrease in the supply of eggs would lead to a leftward shift of the supply curve for eggs. Price would increase and quantity would fall.

Taking these two effects together, there would be a fall in equilibrium quantity and equilibrium price can either rise or fall depending on if demand or supply has a greater effect.

FV = $25553.9544064  rounded off to  $25553.95

Explanation:

The future value of a cashflow or amount can be calculated using the following formula,

FV = PV * (1+r)^t

Where,

We know the values for PV, r and t. Plugging in these values in the formula above, we can calculate the future value to be,

FV = 14500 * (1+0.12)^5

FV = $25553.9544064  rounded off to  $25553.95
