7 Why Supply Shifts: Determinants of Supply
Technology/Productivity Cost of Inputs/Factors of Production Number of Sellers Producer Expectations Government Price of Related Goods Weather/Natural Disasters

8 Technology/Productivity
Improves production of G&S Makes G&S more cheaply Leads to more productivity and efficiency

9 Cost of Inputs/ Factors of Production
If cost of a factor of production increases, supply will decrease. More expensive to produce good If cost of a factor of production decreases, supply will increase. Less expensive to produce good

10 Number of Sellers Increase in the number of businesses in the market will increase the supply of a good Decrease in the number of businesses in the market will decrease the supply of a good

11 Producer Expectations

12 Government: Regulations or Taxes
Increase in government regulations or taxes on businesses decreases supply. Decrease in government regulations or taxes on businesses increases supply.

13 Government: Subsidies
Increase in government subsidies for businesses increases supply. Decrease in government subsidies for businesses decreases supply.

14 Price of Related Goods If businesses can sell other G&S for a higher price, they will shift production away from their product to the G&S they can sell at a higher price. Supply for original good decreases. Supply for new good increases.

15 Weather/Natural Disasters
