Answer:

Companies know that people will be willing to spend more to get an in-demand product.

Explanation:

When a product is really in demand, many customers are willing to part with more money order to purchase the product, as a result of that, many companies may take advantage of the increasing demand for the product to hike it's price.

Hence, the increase in price may not really have a negative impact on the quantity demanded because the demand for the product is high and customers are willing to spend more money in order to purchase an in-demand product, hence the answer above.
