प्रश्न
State whether the following statement is TRUE and FALSE
Desire means demand.
उत्तर
FALSE
Desires refer to those wishes that a human being cherishes such as to walk on the moon, to be a billionaire and to buy a Rolls-Royce. These wishes may not always be backed by enough finance to realise them. It is only when a desire is backed by sufficient purchasing power, along with the consumer’s readiness to spend on materialising the wish, it becomes demand. Thus, until a consumer has sufficient money and he/she is willing to spend, a desire will remain a desire.

Read the following news report and answer the Q.97-Q.100 on the basis of the same:
The quantity of a commodity that a consumer is willing to buy and is able to afford, given the prices of goods and the consumer's tastes and preferences is called demand for the commodity. Whenever one or more of these variables change, the quantity of the good Chosen by the consumer is likely to change as well. The relation between the consumer's optimal choice of the quantity of a good and its price is very important and this relation is called the demand function. Thus, the consumer's demand function for a good gives the amount of the good that the consumer chooses at different levels of its price when the other things remain.
In which of the following cases there will be leftward shift in demand?

According to the council of the Australian Food Technology Association and Institute of Food Science and Technology, the Australian nonalcoholic beverages industry has been growing steadily, with a 2.3 percent increase in overall production in the year 2000 which amounts to 2.25 billion liters. However, in the re~ent years, sales of customary carbonated soft drinks have dropped as more and more customers become health conscious and move away from high-calorie sugary drinks. Soft Carbonated drinks. and other alcohol-free beverage manufacturers have also sensed the effects of intensifying competition from private-label soft drink makers. Nevertheless, sales of greater value energy and sports drinks have driven profit generation in the industry.
