Why is understanding interrelationships between markets important?

A

Understanding interrelationships helps analyze how changes in one market (e.g., demand for cars) can ripple through related markets (e.g., labor, steel, oil), affecting prices, quantities, and economic decisions.

Q

What is an example of how derived demand affects labor markets?
