HOW TO BE SHERLOCK HOLMES
IN READING BETWEEN THE LINES
If You Know P and Q then you know whether demand or supply
is involved as well as the direction of the shift.
If You Know the shift in demand or supply, then you know what
is likely to happen to price and quantity
If You Know the determinant that has changed and price,
then you know what is happening to quantity demanded.
If You Know the determinant that has changed and quantity demanded,
then you know what is happening to price.
