Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A change in the price of good X (the good in question) would cause a movement along the demand curve, but not a shift in the curve itself. A shift in the demand curve would be caused by factors such as changes in consumer tastes and preferences (C) or an increase in consumer income (D). A change in the price of a complementary good (A) would also cause a shift in the demand curve, as it would affect the demand for good X.
