For examples are cars, shirts and books. Goods that decrease in demand as income increases are inferior goods such as used cars, salt-fish and low grade rice. When the income increases, demand curve will shift to the right.

Taste and fashions Taste and fashions of consumers change significantly. If a product becomes more fashionable, the demand for it will increase and if the same product becomes outdated, the demand for it will fall. As tastes and fashions change, demand will also change. For example, change in music, apparel or recreation.

d.

Population Demand depends on the size of the total population in the market. A large number of population will creates a greater demand for goods or services. For example, when the population in Bandar Penawar increases, demand for house, bus services and other goods or services will be increases. Increasing population will shift the supply curve to the right.

e.

Festive seasons and climatic condition During festive seasons, different products will be in high demand. For example, during Chinese New Year, the demand for mandarin oranges will be greater and during the Hari Raya festivities, the demand for lemang will be increase. So, if it positive increase, the demand curve will shift to the right.

f.

Price expected If the people think that prices are going to rise in the future, they are likely to buy more now before the price does go up. For example, when the government plans to increase the price of sugar the following week, the demand for sugar will immediately increase because consumers want to store for future use because of expected higher price. So, if price expected increase, demand curve for today will shift to the right (increase).
