A downward shift in demand for the other commodity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Complements are goods that are used together. For example, pens and paper are complements, because you typically use one with the other. If the price of pens goes up, people will buy less pens. This means that they will also buy less paper, because they are not going to use as many pens. Therefore, the demand for paper will decrease.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a diagram that illustrates the effect of a change in the price of one good on the demand for its complement:<\/p>\n<p>[Diagram of a demand curve for a good, with a shift to the <div class=\"youtube-subscribe-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCNHT8lW-JmLC68rjBfZhdkg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"youtube-subscribe-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"youtube-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 576 512\">\r\n                    <path d=\"M549.7 124.1c-6.3-23.7-24.8-42.3-48.3-48.6C458.8 64 288 64 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n       <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div>      Subscribe on YouTube\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> left representing a decrease in demand.]<\/p>\n<p>The original demand curve is D0. When the price of the complement goes up, the demand curve shifts to the left to D1.

An upward shift in demand for the other commodity<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is not correct, because complements have a negative cross-price elasticity of demand.

A rise in the price of the other commodity<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is not correct, because the price of the other commodity is not affected by the change in the price of the first good.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>C. A downward shift in demand for the other commodity<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is correct, as explained above.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>D. No shift in the demand for the other commodity<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is not correct, because the demand for the other commodity will shift to the left when the price of the first good goes
