This happens because they are complements that if prices rise‚ the computer chip would automatically affect the price of the computer. Assuming that the company enter the number of computers (Qo) at a price (Po)‚ and the equilibrium price at Eo. In this condition‚ when the prices of chip prices fell‚ cateris paribus‚ computer production costs will go down. This causes the supply curve shifts to the right
