Advertisements

Solution

I agree with the given statement.

Reason:

  1. The law of Supply states that "Other things being constant, higher the price of a commodity, more is the quantity supplied and lower the price of a commodity, less is the quantity supplied.”
  2. In simple words, higher the price, higher the supply and lower the price, lower the supply.
  3. The supply curve graphically represents this relationship between price and supply. It has a positive slope i.e. it slopes upward from left to right.

Therefore, there is a direct relationship between price and quantity supplied.
