Demand and Supply

CHAPTER 2
Learning Objectives
•The idea of Economic Model.
•How market reaches equilibrium through the
interaction of demand and supply.

Economic Model
An economic model is a
description of some aspect of the
economic world that includes
only those features that are
needed for the purpose at hand.
It is often shown as a graph.
What Is Demand?
Demand is a relationship between a product’s price
and quantity demanded.
 Demand is shown using a schedule or curve.
 The law of demand: price and quantity demanded are

inversely related.
 Market demand is the sum of quantities demanded by all

consumers in a market.

Changes in Demand
Changes in demand:
 are shown by shifts in the demand curve
 are caused by changes in demand factors

Demand Factors
Factors that can shift the entire demand curve
◦ Income: normal goods, inferior goods
◦ Prices of related goods: substitutes and complements
◦ Consumer preferences
◦ Expectations: future price and income
◦ Number of buyers

Active Learning: The demand curve

Draw the demand curve for orange juice, D1, and a point A (P1, Q1) on the
demand curve. What happens in each of the following scenarios? Why?

A. The price of apple juice increases


B. The price of orange juice falls
C. Consumers’ income falls (and orange juice is a normal good)
D. Summarize what causes movement along the demand curve, what
causes shift of demand curve.

What Is Supply?
Supply:
 is a relationship between a product’s price and quantity
supplied
 is shown using a schedule or curve

The law of supply states there is a direct relationship


between price and quantity supplied.

Supply Factors (a)
Supply factors include the following:
 Number of producers (an increase causes a rightward
supply shift)
 Resource prices (an increase causes a leftward supply shift)

 Technology (an improvement causes a rightward supply

shift)
 Prices of related products (an increase causes a leftward

supply shift)

Supply Factors (b)
 Changes in nature (for some products, an improvement
causes a rightward supply shift)
 Producer expectations (an expectation of lower prices in

the future causes an immediate rightward supply shift)

Conclusion
Defined demand – changes in quantity demanded
vs changes in demand; the causes of changes in
demand
Defined supply – changes in quantity supplied vs
changes in supply; the causes of changes in supply
Identified equilibrium as point where demand of a
good equals the supply of the same good.
