Answer 1

Answer:

B. A more efficient manufacturing technology for constructing laptop computers is used.

C. The government provides a subsidy for the manufacture of laptop computers.

D. The number of sellers increases

Explanation:

The increase in the supply reflect the right-shifted of the supply curve which is due to the number of producers increased which overall increase the production level of the organization or we can say the factors of production  increases

According to the given scenario, option B, option C and option D reflect the increase in the supply of laptops computers and the other options would be ignored as one option said that the price also increases which is a false statement.  

Therefore, all other factors would be impacted other than the price. Example - technologies innovation, prices of inputs, etc.
