Which of the following would likely cause a rightward shift in demand for solar power? Select all that apply: a) widely-seen documentary touts the benefits of solar power b) the price of kitchen sinks increases c) the price of coal power increases d) the population decreases

a, and c  

Explanation:

Shift in demand is usually as a result of the following; changing tastes or preferences of consumers , changing income levels , expectations about future prices .

A documentary touting the benefits of solar power may influence consumers which will change their preferences and cause them to opt more for solar power.

An increase in the price of coal power will cause an increase in the demand for an alternative such as solar power resulting in rightward shift in demand for solar power.

the answer is tom watson. tom watson created this epitaph because he wanted to increase the sympathy felt by people towards the murder of mary phagan.

marginal cost is a microeconomic measure that us to evaluate the extent to which the level of production of a good is sustainable in accounting, that is, to how many quantities the company plans to profit from the production of the good.

the concept of marginal cost is simple, it means the cost of producing one more item. for example, in the case of pies, the marginal cost is the cost of producing one more pie than those that have already been produced.

it is important to understand that productive activity influences marginal cost. the marginal cost of some goods can be very high, while others may be insignificant. for example, the marginal cost of producing an extra plane is very high. already the marginal cost of a water company to provide 1l more water is derisory.

in the case of pies, the cost involves the inputs, the labor and the fixed cost, which involves the fixed space of the bakery. the level of production initially has the marginal cost decreasing because there is space and manpower available. however, to produce more you have to hire more workers and buy more inputs. if physical space is limited, workers will conflict with places, inputs and their productivity will decrease, meaning there is an optimum point of production for each level of space and manpower. from this point on, the productivity of the workers will be getting smaller because of lack of space, so that the marginal cost of producing one more pie will be increasing. so, although you have not posted the chart, but if you have the answer, you can see that my explanation goes according to the marginal cost curve that will increase from the 4th pie, answer (c).
