Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the price change, so would do the supply and demand for beer.

This can either increase or decrease the amount of money spent buying beer. We don't have a guarantee result.

For example

if previously price was 300 and 3 beer were sold= 300 x 3 = 900

now if the price went to 100 and 50 beer were sold 100 x 50 = 5,000

The money use for the purhcase of beer, increased.
