18.Read the situation given below and answer the questions that follow. 

There is a famous bread producing firm named "Ajanta Bread Udhyog" in Dhangadhi-8. Every day it supplies dozens of bread to the most of tea-stalls and grocery shops in Dhangadhi city. It could sell bread at an equilibrium price Rs. 80/- per dozen. Given the demand for bread, its weekly revenue was Rs.24,000/- in the last a few months. However, due to ongoing virus-caused pandemic of covid-19, the most of bread-consumers have recently postponed demand for bread for breakfast at tea-stalls as they are scared of the transmission of virus and want to be away from the grip of deadly virus. Consequently, the demand for bread has adversely influenced and per dozen price of bread has fallen by Rs.20/- these days, resulting a fall in its revenue by Rs.7200/- in each weekend.

b   2. What is the equilibrium price and quantity demanded of bread after the demand postponed by some consumers?

c.   3. Explain the causes of shift in demand curve with reference to the above situation.

d   4. What would happen to the equilibrium price and quantity of bread if it were taken as a necessary commodity? Explain with figure.
