Which of the following best explains the effect of these events in the microbrew beer market? A) Both the supply and demand curves have shifted to the right. As a result, there has been an increase in both the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity. B) Both the supply and demand curves have shifted to the right. As a result, there has been an increase in the equilibrium quantity and an uncertain effect on the equilibrium price. C) The supply curve has shifted to the left and the demand curve has shifted to the right. As a result, there has been an increase in the equilibrium price and an uncertain effect on the equilibrium quantity. D) The supply curve has shifted to the right and the demand curve has shifted to the left. As a result there has been a decrease in the equilibrium quantity and an uncertain effect on the equilibrium price.
