Factors to consider when setting up a Yoghurt Ice Cream store.

Factors affecting supply of yoghurt
Cost of production

Due to the high demands of milk recently, the price of milk have increased. Since milk is a factor of production for yoghurt ice-cream, the cost of production of it has increased. Given that the amount of resoures i.e. Milk decreased, less amout of yoghurt ice-cream would be produced.

Prices of related goods ( Goods in competitive supply)

Goods that are in competitive supply with Yoghurt Ice Cream would be Cheese, Ice cream , butter etc. This is because they require the same raw material, milk. Hence, iif the price of these related good changes, producers will divert more or less resources to the production of yoghurt ice-cream. This would affect the supply of the yoghurt ice-cream.

Natural Factors

Since one of the raw materials come from goats and cow, hence the change in the environment of these animals can affect their survival rates etc. For example, is a plague occured, many of these animals would be killed, and thus less milk would be produced. As a result, the supply of yoghurt ice-cream would decrease.

Leads to scarcity, which is the situation where there is an excess of human wants over what can actually be produced
