What is an example of how this extra money may shift the demand curve for goods and services in the town? O There is a 20% decrease in the amount of tires sold at the local automotive store. OA local restaurant has a 40% increase in the number of dinners. O The price of used cars has remained the same as before. O The local movie theaters are selling fewer tickets.
