  6. Things (determinants that could shift (change) the SUPPLY of a product, cont. • Price of other goods I could produce (fresh fruits/vegetables in summer v. winter) • Taxes (if they increase overall cost goes up too)

  7. S2 S2 Graphing a Shift in Supply(start w/ the basic graph)

  8. Graphing a Shift in Supply • The NEW supply line (S2) is called the Supply Curve. That’s Crazy – it’s a straight line! (don’t let that throw you off)

  17. I R D L Always remember it so you know whether to shift right or left(for either supply or demand). . .

  18. I R D L stands for . . . • Increase • Right • Decrease • Left
