Expert Answer
The answer is; D). an increase in the supply of computers (that is, the computer supply curve shifts to the right).
The increase in the number of firms that produce a given good will increase the market supply thus shifting the supply curve to the right. The increase in the number of consumers increases demand. Both the increase in input prices and in sales tax reduces the market supply which shifts the supply curve to the left.
