b. As a result of the report, the demand for chocolate candy bars increases. This would lead to a rightward shift of the demand curve. Equilibrium price and quantity would increase

c. As a result of the policies, the demand for cigarettes would fall. This would lead to a leftward shift of the demand curve. Equilibrium price and quantity would fall.

d. As a result of the automation, there would be less need for unskilled labour. As a result, the demand for unskilled labour would fall. This would lead to a leftward shift of the demand curve. Equilibrium price and quantity would fall.

e. increase in interest rate increases the demand for bonds. This would lead to a rightward shift of the demand curve. Equilibrium price and quantity would increase

f. as a result of the flooding, there would be a reduction in supply. The supply curve would shift leftward. Equilibrium price would rise and equilibrium quantity would fall
