What this practice covers
These questions are drawn from past Cambridge IGCSE papers and filtered to price changes. You answer, you find out immediately whether you were right, and you get the reasoning for the correct option and for each distractor. Wrong answers go to a mistakes locker so you can come back to exactly those.
Practice is free. You need an account only so your progress and your mistakes are still there next time.

What examiners see students get wrong here
These are the errors that cost marks on price changes, taken from our own topic notes. Read them before you practise and you will recognise the traps in the questions.
- Saying an increase in supply raises the price.
- Giving the new equilibrium without explaining the adjustment.
- Forgetting to mention quantity as well as price.
- Discussing only consumers, when the question asks about the effects on several groups.
- Ignoring elasticity when discussing what happens to producers' revenue.
- Claiming a definite outcome for both price and quantity when both curves shift.
