Input costs are the costs firms must pay in order for them to be able to present a product to a market. These can include land, capital and labour. If the supply is represented by an upward sloping curve on a supply-demand graph, input costs will influence how far to the left or right the entire curve will shift. This means that the cost of inputs will dictate the prices at which firms will be willing to sell different quantities of their product.

Should input costs increase, firms will want to supply less of each product at each price, so the entire curve shifts to the left. Should input costs decrease (a decrease in wage rates, for example) then the firm will be able to offer more of each product at each price, and so the entire supply curve will shift to the right.
