The company cannot change the price since it has to sell on the price mentioned in the catalog. But it would lower the price to increase the quantity demanded if it could.

The company would instead decrease the orders of sweaters that were being supplied from manufacturers. a decrease in orders will cause the manufacturers to produce less, thus decreasing employment and output at the sweater manufacturer.
