1In economics, 'demand' for a good is best defined as:
A.The total quantity of the good that producers offer for sale at various prices
B.The quantities of the good that consumers are willing and able to buy at various prices over a given period
C.The quantity of the good that consumers actually purchase at the prevailing market price
D.The desire consumers feel for the good, regardless of their ability to pay for it
Explanation: Demand is a schedule (or curve) relating prices to the quantities consumers are both willing AND able to buy, other things equal. Both willingness and purchasing power are required; a mere want without the ability to pay is not demand.
2The law of demand states that, ceteris paribus:
A.as the price of a good falls, the quantity demanded of it rises
B.as consumer income rises, demand for every good rises
C.as the price of a good rises, supply of it increases
D.quantity demanded always equals quantity supplied
Explanation: The law of demand describes the inverse relationship between a good's own price and the quantity demanded, holding all other influences constant. This is why demand curves normally slope downwards from left to right.
3A fall in the price of oranges, with all other factors unchanged, causes:
A.a rightward shift of the demand curve for oranges
B.a leftward shift of the demand curve for oranges
C.a movement down along the existing demand curve for oranges
D.a movement up along the existing supply curve for oranges
Explanation: A change in the good's own price causes a movement along the demand curve (a change in quantity demanded), not a shift of the curve. A lower price leads to an extension of demand — a move down along the curve. Shifts come only from changes in non-price determinants such as income, tastes or prices of related goods.
4Coffee and sugar are complementary goods. If the price of coffee falls significantly, the market for sugar will experience:
A.a decrease in demand for sugar, shifting its demand curve to the left
B.an increase in demand for sugar, shifting its demand curve to the right
C.a movement down along the sugar demand curve only, with no shift
D.no change, because the price of sugar itself has not changed
Explanation: Complements are consumed together, so a fall in the price of coffee raises the quantity of coffee demanded and, with it, the demand for sugar at every price of sugar. This is a rightward shift of the sugar demand curve. The price of a related good is a non-price determinant of demand, so it shifts rather than moves along the curve.
5Tea and coffee are substitute goods. Other things equal, a rise in the price of tea will cause:
A.the demand curve for coffee to shift to the left
B.the demand curve for coffee to shift to the right
C.a movement up along the coffee demand curve
D.the supply curve of coffee to shift to the right
Explanation: When two goods are substitutes, a rise in the price of one makes the other relatively more attractive, so consumers switch towards it. Demand for coffee rises at every price, shifting the coffee demand curve to the right.
6For a normal good, an increase in consumers' real income will, ceteris paribus:
A.shift the demand curve for the good to the right
B.shift the demand curve for the good to the left
C.cause a movement up along the demand curve
D.shift the supply curve of the good to the right
Explanation: A normal good is one whose demand rises as income rises. Higher real income increases purchasing power, so consumers demand more at every price — a rightward shift of the demand curve. Most goods and services are normal goods.
7Which statement best describes an inferior good?
A.A good of low physical quality that breaks easily
B.A good whose demand falls as consumer income rises
C.A good whose demand is perfectly price inelastic
D.A good for which there are no substitutes available
Explanation: 'Inferior' is a technical term about the income-demand relationship, not about quality: demand for an inferior good falls as income rises because consumers switch to more expensive alternatives (e.g. from basic staples to premium products). Inferior goods have a negative income elasticity of demand.
8The law of supply states that, ceteris paribus:
A.supply increases when demand increases
B.the quantity supplied of a good rises as its price rises
C.producers will always supply more when costs fall
D.quantity supplied is unrelated to price in the short run
Explanation: The law of supply describes the direct relationship between a good's own price and the quantity producers are willing to offer, other things equal — hence the upward-sloping supply curve. Higher prices make production more profitable and draw more output from existing and new producers.
9If the price of raw materials used to make furniture rises sharply, ceteris paribus, the furniture market will see:
A.the supply curve of furniture shift to the right
B.the supply curve of furniture shift to the left
C.a movement up along the furniture supply curve
D.the demand curve for furniture shift to the left
Explanation: A rise in input prices raises production costs, so producers offer less output at every price — a leftward (decrease) shift of supply. Input costs are a non-price determinant of supply, so they shift the curve rather than cause a movement along it.
10In a free market, the equilibrium price is the price at which:
A.the government fixes the quantity to be traded
B.quantity demanded equals quantity supplied, leaving no tendency for price to change
C.all consumers who want the good can afford to buy unlimited amounts
D.producers maximise their total revenue
Explanation: Equilibrium occurs where the demand and supply curves intersect: the quantity buyers wish to purchase exactly equals the quantity sellers wish to offer, so there is no surplus or shortage pressing the price up or down. It is the market-clearing price.
