That's true, Dorethea. If there's a new technology that makes production more efficient, suppliers can produce more at a lower cost.

But what about B) New disruptive technology? Wouldn't that also shift the supply curve to the right?

I agree with Ariel. When customers have more money to spend, suppliers are willing to supply more goods.

Hold up, what if the answer is all of the above? I mean, any of those factors could potentially shift the supply curve to the right, right?

I dunno, man. I'm kind of leaning towards B) New disruptive technology, but I'm not 100% sure. What do you guys think?

You guys are all wrong. It's clearly A) Changes in customer taste. If people start liking the product more, the suppliers will have to produce more to meet the increased demand, shifting the supply curve to the right.

Nah, I don't think that's it. I'm going with C) Decreased market price of substitute products. If the price of alternatives goes down, it'll make the original product more attractive, increasing demand and shifting the supply curve to the right.

I think D) Increased customers' disposable income is the right answer. If customers have more money to spend, they'll demand more of the product, leading to a rightward shift in the supply curve.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm leaning towards B) New disruptive technology. That would definitely shift the supply curve to the right, as it would increase the production capabilities and lower the costs for the suppliers.
