What is the difference between change in demand curve and shift in demand curve?
Change in demand curve is caused by the change in the price of the product. This is the change that occurs ON THE DEMAND CURVE. The price changes changes the QUANTITY DEMANDED, not the demand curve itself. Shift in demand curve is caused by NON PRICE DEMAND DETERMINANTS. Basically it shifts the ENTIRE curve (right (increase) or left (decrease)). Change in income, change in number of consumers, taste and preferences, price of related goods, and future expectations all cause shifts in demand curve. For example, an increase in the number of consumers would shift the demand to the right because demand would increase.
Does a change in consumers' tastes lead to a movement along the demand curve or a shift in the demand curve?
A change in consumer's tastes leads to a shift in the demand curve. A change in price leads to a movement along the demand curve.
Distinguish between a movement along a given demand curve and a change in demandprovide an example for each?
The change in the demand of a commodity due to change in its price leads to moving the demand curve upward or downward depending upon the change in price. When the price rises, the demand falls. And when the price falls the demand for that commodity rises leading to movement in the demand curve. Shift in the demand curve is the result of the price remaining constant but the demand changing due to several other factors such as, change in fashion, population, etc. Hence at the same price when more is demanded the demand curve shifts to the right. and at the same price when less commodity is demanded it results in the shift of the demand curve to the left.
What is rectangular hyperbola demand curve?
This is the curve which shows the unitary elastic demand where the change in quantity demanded equals with the change in price.
What the difference between movement along the demand curve and a shift in demand?
A movement along the demand curve is only caused by a change in price of that specific good, a demand curve is the quantity demanded for a good at each price. If the demand curve shifts, this means that something besides price is affecting the demand, so that at each price more or less is demanded.

This is the curve which shows the unitary elastic demand where the change in quantity demanded equals with the change in price.
You want the characteristics of perfect inelastic demand curve?
A verticle demand curve, where a change in price does not effect quantity.

In economics what is the meaning of the term 'demand curve'?
Graphical representation of law of demand that is change in quantity demanded due to change in price keeping other factors constant is demand curve. It is downward sloping as there is inverse relation between price and quantity demanded.
Why demand curve is horizontally curve?
horigontal demand curve means perfectly elasticity..i.e ed=infinity.in this case price is fixed and what ever change in demand will not effect the price.it can be said that supply of good in not limited in this case..i.e why it not effect the price with change in demand.
How does a change in price on a linear demand curve affect total revenue?
on the linear demand curve, demand is elastic at price above the point of unitary elasticity so a price increase will decrease the total revenue.
Does a change in price level shift the aggregate demand curve?
Yes
Explain the difference between elasticity of demand and the slope of a demand curve?
The demand curve is drawn with price on the vertical axis and quantity demanded on the horizontal axis. Mathematically, the slope of a curve is represented by rise over run, or the change in the variable on the vertical axis divided by the change in the variable on the horizontal axis. Therefore, the slope of the demand curve represents change in price divided by change in quantity. Elasticity, on the other hand, aims to quantify the responsiveness of demand and supply to changes in price, income, or other determinants of demand.
