DETERMINANTS OF SUPPLY
Determinants of Supply NON – PRICE FACTORS 11 1. Technology This refers to techniques or methods of production. Modern technology which uses modern machines increases supply of goods. 2. Cost of Production When we speak of the cost of production, we take in to consideration the price of raw materials which are needed together with the cost of labor . As the price of raw materials or the salaries of laborers increases, it means higher cost of production. Higher cost of production decreased supply because the viability or profitability of the business decreases.
Determinants of Supply NON – PRICE FACTORS 12 3. Number of Sellers More sellers or more factories means an increase in supply. On the other hand, less sellers or factories mean less supplies . 4. Taxes and Subsidies Certain taxes increase cost of production. Higher taxes discourage production because it reduces the earnings of businessmen. In the case of subsidies, there are financial grants or financial assistance to producers. Clearly, subsidies reduce cost of production. This induces businessmen to produce more.

Brain in Activity Show the changes in supply through the shift of the supply curve. 15 Coffee growers must pay a higher wage to the workers they hire to harvest coffee. Storms, insect infestations, and drought affect agricultural production and thus the supply of agricultural goods. Over the past decade, new cellular phone companies emerged bringing new brand and technology on cellular phones. There is a shift of using DVD to YouTube Channel, Netflix and the like.
