Answer:
Any movement which is caused by price will be along the demand curve and any other movement caused by non price factors will shift the demand curve.
1) A decrease in the number of consumers is a non price movement so the demand curve will shift leftwards because of it.
2) A change in taste of consumers making them desire more hot dogs is a non price movement and it will shift the demand curve to the right.
3) An increase in the price of hot dogs is a price movement and this will cause movement along the demand curve.

Answer:
Apples and Banana
a) Profit maximizing prices:
i) For Apple = $100
ii) For Banana = $40
b) Profits equal revenue minus costs:
i) For Apple = $100Q - (20 + 10Q) = $60Q
ii) For Banana = $40 - (26.5 + 5Q) = $8.50Q
c) To maximize profit, the price to charge is $100 for Apples and $40 for Banana.
d) I would expect to earn a profit of $68.50 for a set of apple and banana.
Explanation:
To maximize profit, Apple and Banana will be sold separately.
But, selling them together, the best profit maximizing prices will be $100 for Apples and $10 for Banana.
At this combined price, the banana still makes a contribution of $5 per unit towards offsetting the fixed cost of $26.50
