Shifts in the demand curve are originated by changes in the demand determinants and shifts in the supply curve by changes in the supply determinants. Determinant changes cause shifts: - Increase in demand is a rightward shift.
- Decrease in demand is a leftward shift.
- Increase in supply is a rightward shift.
- decrease in supply is a leftward shift.
Note that:- An increase in demand and an increase in supply both are rightward shifts.
- A decrease in demand and a decrease in supply both are leftward shifts.
