Detailed explanation-1: -give producers an incentive to produce more. An increase in the price of the goods increases the total revenue of the producers from selling each good in the market. It incentivizes the producers to produce more at a higher price to earn more revenue and gain higher profits.

Rising prices motivate producers to enter a market due to the expectation of profits, while falling prices motivate them to exit a market due to the possibility of losses.
