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.
