2 2 SUPPLY AND DEMAND I: HOW MARKETS WORK
3 Supply and demand are the two words that economists use most often. Supply and demand are the forces that make market economies work. Modern microeconomics is about supply, demand, and market equilibrium.
4 MARKETS AND COMPETITION A market is a group of buyers and sellers of a particular good or service. The terms supply and demand refer to the behavior of people... as they interact with one another in markets.
5 MARKETS AND COMPETITION Buyers determine demand. Sellers determine supply
6 Competitive Markets A competitive market is a market in which there are many buyers and sellers so that each has a negligible impact on the market price.
7 Competition: Perfect and Otherwise Perfect Competition Products are the same Numerous buyers and sellers so that each has no influence over price Buyers and Sellers are price takers Monopoly One seller, and seller controls price
8 Competition: Perfect and Otherwise Oligopoly Few sellers Not always aggressive competition Monopolistic Competition Many sellers Slightly differentiated products Each seller may set price for its own product
9 DEMAND Quantity demanded is the amount of a good that buyers are willing and able to purchase. Law of Demand The law of demand states that, other things equal, the quantity demanded of a good falls when the price of the good rises.
10 The Demand Curve: The Relationship between Price and Quantity Demanded Demand Schedule The demand schedule is a table that shows the relationship between the price of the good and the quantity demanded.
11 Catherine s Demand Schedule
12 The Demand Curve: The Relationship between Price and Quantity Demanded Demand Curve The demand curve is a graph of the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity demanded.
13 Copyright 2004 South-Western Figure 1 Catherine s Demand Schedule and Demand Curve Price of Ice-Cream Cone $ A decrease in price Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones increases quantity of cones demanded.
14 Market Demand versus Individual Demand Market demand refers to the sum of all individual demands for a particular good or service. Graphically, individual demand curves are summed horizontally to obtain the market demand curve.
15 Shifts in the Demand Curve Change in Quantity Demanded Movement along the demand curve. Caused by a change in the price of the product.
16 Changes in Quantity Demanded Price of Ice- Cream Cones $2.00 B A tax that raises the price of ice-cream cones results in a movement along the demand curve A D Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones
17 Shifts in the Demand Curve Consumer income Prices of related goods Tastes Expectations Number of buyers
18 Shifts in the Demand Curve Change in Demand A shift in the demand curve, either to the left or right. Caused by any change that alters the quantity demanded at every price.
19 Figure 3 Shifts in the Demand Curve Price of Ice-Cream Cone Increase in demand 0 Decrease in demand Demand curve, D 3 Demand curve, D 1 Demand curve, D 2 Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones Copyright 2003 Southwestern/Thomson Learning
20 Shifts in the Demand Curve Consumer Income As income increases the demand for a normal good will increase. As income increases the demand for an inferior good will decrease.
21 Consumer Income Normal Good Price of Ice- Cream Cone $3.00 An increase in income Increase in demand D D 2 Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones
22 Consumer Income Inferior Good Price of Ice-Cream Cone $ An increase in income Decrease in demand D 2 D Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones
23 Shifts in the Demand Curve Prices of Related Goods When a fall in the price of one good reduces the demand for another good, the two goods are called substitutes. When a fall in the price of one good increases the demand for another good, the two goods are called complements.
24 Table 1 Variables That Influence Buyers Copyright 2004 South-Western
25 SUPPLY Quantity supplied is the amount of a good that sellers are willing and able to sell. Law of Supply The law of supply states that, other things equal, the quantity supplied of a good rises when the price of the good rises.
26 The Supply Curve: The Relationship between Price and Quantity Supplied Supply Schedule The supply schedule is a table that shows the relationship between the price of the good and the quantity supplied.
27 Ben s Supply Schedule
28 The Supply Curve: The Relationship between Price and Quantity Supplied Supply Curve The supply curve is the graph of the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity supplied.
29 Copyright 2003 Southwestern/Thomson Learning Figure 5 Ben s Supply Schedule and Supply Curve Price of Ice-Cream Cone $ An increase in price Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones increases quantity of cones supplied.
30 Market Supply versus Individual Supply Market supply refers to the sum of all individual supplies for all sellers of a particular good or service. Graphically, individual supply curves are summed horizontally to obtain the market supply curve.
31 Shifts in the Supply Curve Input prices Technology Expectations Number of sellers
32 Shifts in the Supply Curve Change in Quantity Supplied Movement along the supply curve. Caused by a change in anything that alters the quantity supplied at each price.
33 Change in Quantity Supplied Price of Ice- Cream Cone S $ A C A rise in the price of ice cream cones results in a movement along the supply curve Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones
34 Shifts in the Supply Curve Change in Supply A shift in the supply curve, either to the left or right. Caused by a change in a determinant other than price.

37 SUPPLY AND DEMAND TOGETHER Equilibrium refers to a situation in which the price has reached the level where quantity supplied equals quantity demanded.
38 SUPPLY AND DEMAND TOGETHER Equilibrium Price The price that balances quantity supplied and quantity demanded. On a graph, it is the price at which the supply and demand curves intersect. Equilibrium Quantity The quantity supplied and the quantity demanded at the equilibrium price. On a graph it is the quantity at which the supply and demand curves intersect.
39 SUPPLY AND DEMAND TOGETHER Demand Schedule Supply Schedule At $2.00, the quantity demanded is equal to the quantity supplied!
40 Copyright 2003 Southwestern/Thomson Learning Figure 8 The Equilibrium of Supply and Demand Price of Ice-Cream Cone Supply $2.00 Equilibrium price Equilibrium Equilibrium quantity Demand Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones
41 Copyright 2003 Southwestern/Thomson Learning Figure 9 Markets Not in Equilibrium Price of Ice-Cream Cone $ (a) Excess Supply Surplus Supply Demand 0 4 Quantity demanded 7 10 Quantity supplied Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones
42 Equilibrium Surplus When price > equilibrium price, then quantity supplied > quantity demanded. There is excess supply or a surplus. Suppliers will lower the price to increase sales, thereby moving toward equilibrium.
43 Equilibrium Shortage When price < equilibrium price, then quantity demanded > the quantity supplied. There is excess demand or a shortage. Suppliers will raise the price due to too many buyers chasing too few goods, thereby moving toward equilibrium.
44 Copyright 2003 Southwestern/Thomson Learning Figure 9 Markets Not in Equilibrium Price of Ice-Cream Cone (b) Excess Demand Supply $ Shortage Demand Quantity of Quantity Quantity Ice-Cream supplied demanded Cones
45 Equilibrium Law of supply and demand The claim that the price of any good adjusts to bring the quantity supplied and the quantity demanded for that good into balance.
46 Three Steps to Analyzing Changes in Equilibrium Decide whether the event shifts the supply or demand curve (or both). Decide whether the curve(s) shift(s) to the left or to the right. Use the supply-and-demand diagram to see how the shift affects equilibrium price and quantity.

Supply $2.50 New equilibrium resulting in a higher price Initial equilibrium D D Quantity of and a higher Ice-Cream Cones quantity sold. Copyright 2003 Southwestern/Thomson Learning
48 Three Steps to Analyzing Changes in Equilibrium Shifts in Curves versus Movements along Curves A shift in the supply curve is called a change in supply. A movement along a fixed supply curve is called a change in quantity supplied. A shift in the demand curve is called a change in demand. A movement along a fixed demand curve is called a change in quantity demanded.

51 Summary Economists use the model of supply and demand to analyze competitive markets. In a competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers, each of whom has little or no influence on the market price.
52 Summary The demand curve shows how the quantity of a good depends upon the price. According to the law of demand, as the price of a good falls, the quantity demanded rises. Therefore, the demand curve slopes downward. In addition to price, other determinants of how much consumers want to buy include income, the prices of complements and substitutes, tastes, expectations, and the number of buyers. If one of these factors changes, the demand curve shifts.
53 Summary The supply curve shows how the quantity of a good supplied depends upon the price. According to the law of supply, as the price of a good rises, the quantity supplied rises. Therefore, the supply curve slopes upward. In addition to price, other determinants of how much producers want to sell include input prices, technology, expectations, and the number of sellers. If one of these factors changes, the supply curve shifts.
54 Summary Market equilibrium is determined by the intersection of the supply and demand curves. At the equilibrium price, the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied. The behavior of buyers and sellers naturally drives markets toward their equilibrium.
55 Summary To analyze how any event influences a market, we use the supply-and-demand diagram to examine how the even affects the equilibrium price and quantity. In market economies, prices are the signals that guide economic decisions and thereby allocate resources.
