For each of the determinants of demand in Equation (a), identify an example illustrating the effect on the demand for hybrid gasoline-electric vehicles such as the Toyota Prius. Then do the same for each of the determinants of supply in Equation (b). In each instance, would equilibrium market price increase or decrease? Consider substitutes such as plug-in hybrids, the Nissan Leaf and Chevy Volt, and complements such as gasoline and lithium ion laptop computer batteries.
QD = f (PS, PS, PC, Y, A, AC, N, CP, PE, TA, T/S .) ------------ (a)
QS = f (P, P1, PUI, T, EE, F, RC, PE, T/S .) ---------------------- (b)
