Supply curve shift: Changes in production cost and related factors can cause an entire supply curve to shift right or left. This causes a higher or lower quantity to be supplied at a given price. The ceteris paribus assumption: Supply curves relate prices and quantities supplied assuming no other factors change

Shifts in supply occur when the amount of goods available increases or decreases. Shifts in supply can happen when prices change, when competitors produce similar goods, or when the availability of labor or resources changes.
