Demand + Supply Curve Flashcards
When the question state the word MARKET what do you need to have ?
Quantity and price !
How do you explain the change in equilibrium?
- state the Initial equilibrium
- Identify and explain why the event Shift of demand/supply
- Identify the shortage / surplus
- Identify the change in price
- upward / downward pressure - State the new equilibrium
An Increase in demand will lead to ?
A shortage.
Price increases, quantity demanded falls.
An increase in supply will lead to ?
A surplus.
Price decrease, quantity demanded increases
A fall in demand causes ? In price and quantity
[ equilibrium ] Decrease in price and decrease in quantity
[ Initial ] price decrease, quantity demanded increases , quantity supply falls
A fall in supply will … ?
Cause an increase in equilibrium price
Cause a decrease in equilibrium quantity
A shortage
how ?
A fall in supply causes an upward pressure in price, quantity demanded decrease, quantity supplied decrease
LEFTWARD SHIFT
Draw the graph
An increase in demand and increase in supply causes the equilibrium P&Q to ?
P: indeterminate
Q: increase
Decrease in demand and increase in supply causes the equilibrium P&Q to ?
P: decrease
Q: indeterminate
An increase in demand and decrease in supply causes the equilibrium P&Q to ?
P: increase
Q: indeterminate
Decrease in demand and decrease in supply causes the equilibrium P & Q to ?
P: indeterminate
Q: decrease
For both increase/ decrease in supply/demand curve what format to use ?
ISSJUE !
justification is important
To what extend one is greater than the other.
This is so that the P / Q is not indeterminate
