1. New producers entering the market. (More businesses producing a product or service will mean a greater supply of that product or service.)
2. Government taxes and subsidies. (High taxes on a product may discourage suppliers, whereas government subsidies will encourage more of the product to be supplied. A recent example was government subsidy for the production of ethanol, which caused a strong increase in ethanol production and supplies.)
4. Cost of the product or services. (High input costs to provide the product or service will tend to decrease supply, as profit margins for producers are affected.)
5. Future expectation of prices. This one is tricky to call a "non-price determinant," but it's not a current, actual price. It's the anticipation that prices and sales will be strong at some future point. So, for instance, if there is an expectation that flying cars (or personal helicopters) will someday be a high-demand item that will sell for high prices, that will spur development and supply of such an item.
<em>The only one I left out was #3, effect of mass media advertising -- because that is something that is a determinant of demand rather than supply.</em>

<u>This portion of the text shows Hobbes supported an absolute ruler:</u>
- <em>Men are continually in competition for honour and dignity . . . and consequently amongst men there ariseth on that ground, envy, and hatred, and finally war. ... No wonder if there be somewhat else required, besides [contract], to make their agreement constant and lasting; which is a common power to keep them in awe and to direct their actions to the common benefit.
</em>
- <em>
The only way to erect such a common power, as may be able to defend them from the invasion of foreigners, and the injuries of one another . . . is to confer all their power and strength upon one man, or upon one assembly of men, that may reduce all their wills, by plurality of voices, unto one will.</em>
Further detail:
Thomas Hobbes published a famous work called Leviathan in 1651. The title "Leviathan" comes from a biblical word for a great and mighty beast. Hobbes believed government is formed by people for the sake of their personal security and stability in society. In Hobbes' view, once the people put a king (or other leader in power), then that leader needs to have supreme power (like a great and mighty beast). Hobbes' view of the natural state of human beings without a government held that people are too divided and too volatile as individuals -- everyone looking out for his own interests. So for security and stability, authority and the power of the law needs to be in the hands of a powerful ruler like a king or queen. And so people willingly enter a "social contract" in which they live under a government that provides stability and security for society.
