Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A supply shock that raises the price of crude oil from $15 to $17 would typically reduce the quantity demanded. The reduction in quantity demanded, combined with the higher price, could lead to a situation where the total revenue from crude oil sales declines. The specific choice indicating a decline of more than $300 suggests a significant decrease in quantity demanded that outweighs the increase in revenue per unit sold, leading to a net decrease in total revenue.
