geniusboy [140]

Answer:

(B) the demand curve shifts leftward while the supply curve stays the same.

Explanation:

"Substitutes are goods where you can consume one in place of the other. The prices of complementary or substitute goods also shift the demand curve. When the price of a good that complements a good decreases, then the quantity demanded of one increases and the demand for the other increases. When the price of a substitute good decreases, the quantity demanded for that good increases, but the demand for the good that it is being substituted for decreases. "

trapecia [35]

Price ceiling increase consumer surplus and reduce producer surplus.

A price floor is when the government or an agency of the government sets the least price a good or service can be sold. It is usually set above equilibrium price.

Price floor increases producer surplus and reduces consumer surplus.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the product.

Producer surplus is the difference between the price of a product and the least price the seller is willing to sell the product.
