Refer to the above diagram, in which S1 and D1 represent the original supply and demand curves and S2 and D2 the new curves.In this market the indicated shift in supply may have been caused by:

A) an increase in the wages paid to workers producing this good. B) the development of more efficient machinery for producing this commodity. C) this product becoming less fashionable. D) an increase in consumer incomes. A) an increase in the wages paid to workers producing this good. B) the development of more efficient machinery for producing this commodity. C) this product becoming less fashionable. D) an increase in consumer incomes.

Refer to the above graph, which shows the market for chicken where D1 and D2 represent different demand curves.A change from E1 to E2 is most likely to result from:

A) an increase in expectations of higher future prices for chicken. B) an increase in the cost of chicken feed to produce chickens. C) a decrease in the price of beef products. D) an increase in consumer incomes. A) an increase in expectations of higher future prices for chicken. B) an increase in the cost of chicken feed to produce chickens. C) a decrease in the price of beef products. D) an increase in consumer incomes.

Refer to the graph below, showing the market supply and demand for a product.Assume that the market is initially in equilibrium where D1 and S1 intersect.If consumer incomes decreased and production costs increased, then new equilibrium would be at:
