This document discusses supply and demand concepts including:
1. Demand refers to how much of a good consumers are willing and able to purchase at different price levels, while supply refers to how much of a good producers are willing to sell.
2. When the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied, the market reaches equilibrium and the equilibrium price is established.
3. Many factors can cause supply and demand curves to shift, leading to changes in equilibrium price and quantity. This includes changes in income, tastes, prices of related goods, production costs, and technology levels among producers.
5. Quantity Demanded
The amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able
to buy at a specific price
Demand is expressed in terms of a time frame(per week, per day)
Does price effect demand?
7. Law of Demand
Demand and price are inverse(opposites)
As price goes up, demand goes down
As price goes down, demand does up
8. Why does demand change?
Price, duh
Change in income
What happens if you make more money? Get laid off?
Change in number of consumers
What happens if a flood occurs? A festival happens?
Change in consumer preference
VHS and DVDs
9. Why does demand change?
Change in consumer expectations
Expect a sale
Change in price of substitute goods
HCF and Name Brand
Change in price of complimentary goods
Printers and ink, hamburgers and buns
11. Warm-Up
Demand is always referring to _____________(producers or
consumers)
Write down the 7 reasons demand can change and give an example of
each (write this in your notes)
You may work with a partner
13. Changes in the curve
An increase in demand causes the demand curve to shift to the right
A decrease in demand causes the demand curve to shift to the left
An increase or decrease in price causes the line to move stretch or
shrink (up or down)
14. Supply
The quantity of a good or service that producers are willing to and
able to offer for sale at various prices
Difference between supply and demand?
18. Supply Curve
Shows the relationship between price and the quantity producers are
willing and able to supply
19. Law of Supply
Price and quantity move in the same direction
As price goes up, quantity supplied goes up
As price goes down, quantity supplied goes down
20. Why does supply change?
Price, duh
Change in the amount of producers
More producers leads to higher supplies
Change in cost of factors of production
Decrease in cost of production leads to an increase in supply
21. Why does supply change?
Changes in Technology
Technology can decrease cost, which leads to an increase in supply
Changes in producer expectations
Changes in Government policy
23. Warm-Up
Draw a demand curve(label the x and y axis)
Draw a supply curve (label the x and y axis)
How does price effect demand
How does price effect supply
24. Graphing Changes in Supply
An increase in demand causes the supply curve to shift to the right
A decrease in demand causes the supply curve to shift to the left
25. Demand and Supply Meet
Market equilibrium: the quantity of a good or service that
consumers are willing and able to buy equals the quantity
that producers are willing and able to sell
Market price is the price a willing consumer pays to a
willing producer for the sale of a good or service
27. When the price is not right
Disequilibrium- when the quantity of a product demanded does not
meet the quantity of a product supplied; causing a shortage or
surplus
Shortage- a lack of something
Surplus- an excess of something
28. Shortage/Excess Demand
Talk with a partner or think by yourself about two examples of
shortages or excess demand
How to solve excess demand?
29. Surplus/Excess Supply
Talk with a partner or think by yourself about two examples of surplus
or excess supply.
How to solve excess supply
31. Warm-Up
If there is an increase in quantity on a demand or supply curve which
way does the line shift? Draw an example.
If there is a decrease in quantity on a demand or supply curve which
way does the line shift? Draw an example.
List two reasons why demand might shift on a demand curve, give an
example for each.
List two reasons why supply might shift on a supply curve, give an
example for each.
32. Warm-Up
What does equilibrium mean? Label the equilibrium on a graph.
What is a surplus? Draw an example.
What is a shortage? Draw an example.
33. How do shifts in the curve effect markets?
If there is a shift in the demand or supply curve there is a new
equilibrium price
34. Effect of a change in demand on equilibrium
Does the change increase (shift to the right) or decrease(shift to the
left) the quantity demanded
What are the new equilibrium price and quantity? Did the
price/quantity increase or decrease?
35. Effect of a change in supply on equilibrium
Does the change increase (shift to the right) or decrease(shift to the
left) the quantity supplied?
What are the new equilibrium price and quantity? Did the
price/quantity increase or decrease?
36. Effect of changes in both supply and demand
on equilibrium
Does the change increase (shift to the right) or decrease(shift to the
left) the quantity supplied and quantity demanded?
What are the new equilibrium price and quantity? Did the
price/quantity increase or decrease?
