Changes in
Demand- “Shifts”
Warm up:
Describe the Law of Demand,
include the substitution effect
and income effect in the
description.
Changes in Demand
 Demand Shifts: Time allows factors
other than price to influence demand
significantly.
 In Economics these factors can shift
the entire demand curve of a product
to the right or to the left.
Changes in Demand

Determinants of Demand—Factors that
can cause the entire demand curve to shift to
either the right or left.
1. Consumer tastes and preferences
2. Market size
3. Income
4. Prices of related goods
5. Consumer expectations
Determinants of Demand
1. Consumer Tastes and Preferences:


ex. Changes in music preferences
If a groups popularity rises—demand curve
shifts to the right
If a groups popularity declines—demand
curve shifts to the left.
Determinants of Demand
2. Market Size—The size of a market
tend to affect demand.



Markets expand and contract
Nike launches new advertising campaign

Determinants of Demand
 Government Policy can affect size of
markets—China trade policy example
 New Technology can affect market size
 Ex. Invention of video and internet cell
phones

curve shifts to the left.
 New video technology—demand curve
shifts to the right.
Determinants of Demand
3. Income—Higher incomes generally
allows people to spend more money for
goods and services which causes the
demand curve to shift to the right.
Determinants of Demand
4. Prices of Related Goods—A change
in a products price can affect demand

5. Consumer Expectations—Your
expectations for more future
income influences your purchases
today.
 Ex. Anticipate a raise in your
salary OR
 If you anticipate being laid off !
