D0 and S0 represents the market demand and supply curve of the chicken
respectively. While P0 and Q0 represents the original equilibrium price and
quantity respectively. When the tabloid reports that fish provides more nutrient
than chicken, as a result; demand of chicken will drop as fish act as a substitute
good for chicken. So, the demand of fish will rise.
In this case, when the demand of chicken decreases, the demand curve will shift
leftward from D0 to D1 while the supply curve of the chicken remains constant.
When the curve shifts leftward, new equilibrium point is achieved at E1.
Consequently, the equilibrium price will decrease from P0 to P1 , while the
equilibrium quantity will decrease from Q0 to Q1 at the new equilibrium point.

respectively. When the price of beef falls as a result, demand of chicken will drop
as beef act as a substitute good for chicken. So the demand for beef will rise.
In this case, when the demand of chicken decrease, the demand curve will shift
leftward from D0 to D1, while the supply curve of the chicken remain constant.
When the curve shift leftwards, new equilibrium point is achieved at
E1.Consequently, the equilibrium price will decrease from P0 to P1, while the
equilibrium quantity will decrease from Q0 to Q1 at the new equilibrium point.

respectively. When a consumers income decreases, the demand of chicken will
also decrease because in this case the chicken is assumed as a normal good.
When the demand of chicken decrease, the demand curve will shift leftward from
D0 to D1 while the supply curve of the chicken remain constant. When the curve
shift leftwards, new equilibrium point is achieved at E1.Consequently ,the
equilibrium price will decrease from P0 to P1, while the equilibrium quantity will
also decrease from Q0 to Q1 at the new equilibrium point.

seafood instead of chicken. Gradually, the demand of chicken will decrease.
When the demand of chicken decrease,the demand curve will shift leftward from
D0 to D1, while the supply curve of the chicken remain constant. When the curve
shift leftwards, new equilibrium point is achieved at E1.Consequently, the
equilibrium price will decrease from P0 to P1,while the equilibrium quantity will
also decrease from Q0 to Q1 at the new equilibrium point.

D0 and S0 represent the market demand and supply curve of the chicken
respectively. While P0 and Q0 represent the original equilibrium price and quantity
respectively. In this case, as the promotion of the meal has been very successful so
the demand of chicken will eventually increase.
When the demand of chicken increase, the demand curve will shift rightward from
D0 to D1 while, the supply curve of the chicken remain constant. When the curve
shift rightwards , new equilibrium point is achieved at E1.Consequently ,the
equilibrium price will increase from P0 to P1,while the equilibrium quantity will
also increase from Q0 to Q1 at the new equilibrium point.

respectively. When the chicken is affected by flu, eventually the demand of
chicken will decrease.
When the demand of chicken decrease, the demand curve will move leftward from
D0 to D1 while, the supply curve of the chicken remain constant. When the curve
shift leftwards, new equilibrium point is achieved at E1.Consequently ,the
equilibrium price will decrease from P0 to P1,while the equilibrium quantity will
also decrease from Q0 to Q1 at the new equilibrium point.

S0 and D0 represents the supply and demand curve respectively, while P0 and Q0
represents the original equilibrium price and quantity. When the demand increases,
the demand curve shifts rightward from D0 to D1. Also, the supply increases, the
supply curve shifts rightward from S0 to S1. When both of the curve shift
rightward from their initial position, new market equilibrium point is achieved at
E1. At the new equilibrium point, the equilibrium price increases from P0 to P1
while the equilibrium quantity increase from Q0 to Q1.

Syrian victims are facing starvations. So,because of that the demand for food is
increased. As a result ,the demand curve will shift rightward from D0 to D1,This
results an increase in both equilibrium price and quantity. In addition, the supply
curve will shift to leftward from S0 To S1,as the transportation are restraint. In this
case, both of the curve shifts equally, as a result new equilibrium point will
achieved at E0. At the new equilibrium point, quantity remains constant while
equilibrium price increases from P0 To P1.The change of the equilibrium is shown
as E0 To E1.

As Syrian victims are facing starvations, the demand for food will increase. And
the supply of food will decrease as the transports are restraint. But this time, the
increase in demand is smaller than the decrease in supply. This made the demand
curve to increase 20% and the supply curve to decrease 40%.
S0 and D0 represents the supply and demand curve respectively, while P0 and Q0
represents the original equilibrium price and quantity. When the demand increases,
the demand curve shifts rightward from D0 to D1. Also, when the supply
decreases, the supply curve shifts leftward from S0 to S1. When both of the curve
shifts from their initial position, new market equilibrium point is achieved at E1. At
the new equilibrium point, the equilibrium price increases from P0 to P1 while the
equilibrium quantity decrease from Q0 to Q1. The change of the equilibrium is
shown as E0 To E1.
