The raise in the price of a product causes an increase in competition.
The firm would raise the price because the firm's total revenues would probably increase.
If a company chooses to raise prices during the holidays, they will sell less of that product. Some consumers reservation price will be lower than the new price so they will not buy the product. This is represented by a movement along the demand curve, NOT a shift of the demand curve.
An individual producer will try to raise the price of a product when there is great demand for the product in relation to supply in order to gain a profit. Other producers in a perfectly competitive market will then lower their prices in order to attract more consumers to their product. This may still produce a profit if enough consumers buy greater quantities of the product to compensate for the low price. Overall this increases demand for the supply.
The rise in the price of a product is going to cause: 1. consumer demand of product to decrease 2. producers supply decreases 3. equilibrium price is uncertain because both demand and supply are shifting However if demand grows relatively more than supply, price will rise, but if supply grows relatively more than demand, price will fall.
This is due to the principles of supply and demand. If a product is in high demand but low supply then sellers will raise the price and maximize profits. They also will pay a high price either because they want the product ( a discretionary decision ) or the need it.

By and large, yes. As long as it is not a regulated commodity the manufacterer of a product is allowed to set whatever price they see fit.
If the price increases it means there is not a lot of product avaible. This is seen when a company can not keep up with demand the tend to raise prices so that demand goes down. This is also seen in with the opposite effects, if a company has too much of a product then they lower prices to increase demand
Jobber price is what one company would sell their goods to another retail company for. That company would then raise the price on that product and sell it for profit. Margins of profit when selling at jobber price is typically very low, think of it as a wholesale price.
I didn't.
