A set of factors that can shift the supply curve are changes in

A.

Weather, price and technology

B.

Technology, weather and population

C.

Technology, price and taste

D.

Population, price and taste

Correct answer is B

A shift in the supply curve is brought about by a change in supply. Changes in production cost and related factors can cause an entire supply curve to shift right or left.

A supply curve will shift to the right when there is an increase in the change in supply, and it will shift to the left when there is a decrease in the change in supply.

Some of the factors that may cause a supplier to be unable to supply to the market include;

- changes in the costs of production.
- changes in technology.
- population size.
- government taxes/subsidies/regulations.
- weather conditions.
- wars/disaster
