Lesson 5: Demand | Unit 4: Determinants Page: 16 of 20

Topic: Types <=PAGE BACK | PAGE NEXT=>

The five determinants that cause the demand curve to shift are:
  • Income: Income affects the ability of buyers to buy. It can affect a good in two ways-normal or inferior.
  • Preferences: Preferences, our likes and dislikes, affect the willingness of buyers to buy.
  • Prices of other goods: Other goods can be either substitutes or complements to the good we're analyzing.
  • Expectations: Buyers' current demand depends on expectations of future prices.
  • Number of buyers: More buyers, more demand. Fewer buyers, less demand.
These categories include all factors other than price that affect demand.
