what migth increase the demand for hamburgers and what migth increase the supply of hamburgers?

Answer 1

sounds like homework assignment for econ 101...how about opening some textbooks and give it a bit of sweat? This is not a difficult question and it could help mastering basic concepts.

the previous answer is the only one getting close to what you're probably looking for, but not exactly.

Shifts in the price of hamburgers (because of regulation for example) would influence supply and demand, but if the curves themselves haven't moved, it could lead to market desequilibrium.

Then, shifts in the supply and demand curves could happen:

-for demand, because of a successful marketing campaign, or anything that would improve the image of hamburgers (like a report that would say they're healthy), or through substitution because another product that's a substitute from hamburgers (maybe cheap Chinese take-away, Doner Kebabs or fried chicken) sees its demand decrease (for example because of public health issues, like release of a report that says KFC uses rotten meat, or because the price of these goods increased).

-an increase in supply could happen because new technologies allow better productivity, or subsidies give incentive to produce more.

hope it helped.

Answer 2

The demand would increase if the hamburger producers use the same chemicals to hook us like the cigarette manufacturers used. Supply could be increased by mixing the beef with all the road kill and euthanized animals, thus producing more meat. In either case, Americans would neither notice nor care.

Answer 3

prices are in equilibrium. A lowering of price would tend to increase demand for hamburgers, as a rise in the price would tend to increase the supply.

Answer 4

Advertising could increase the demand, as well as better quality, quantity or price.

A decreased demand of course would increase the supply, as well as drought or other natural disaster forcing ranchers into killing off more of their herds than anticipated. A new drug that increases cattle growth rate.

Answer 5

a reduction in the supply would increase the proportional demand and a decrease in demand would create an increase in the supply.
