  • A. a rise in price of Bournvita
  • B. an increase in income
  • C. a tax on cocoa producer
  • D. a fall in price of Bournvita

Correct Answer: B. an increase in income

Explanation

A shift in demand means that at any price (and at every price), the quantity demanded will be different than it was before. It caused by a change in the number of consumers, a change in the distribution of tastes among consumers, a change in the distribution of income among consumers with different tastes. Price does not affect the shift of a demand curve. From the given options, B correctly fits into this narrative.
