It says nothing about the magnitude of such a change. For example, the price of Pepsi rises from  Rs.10 to  Rs.12 per bottle, then, as per the law of demand, we can say that the demand for Pepsi will fall. But the law does not give the actual amount by which the demand for Pepsi will decline.

Q) ‘Supply curve is the rising portion of the marginal cost curve over and above the minimum of Average Variable cost curve’. Do you agree? Support your answer with a valid reason.
