he price falls to equilibrium price when there is a ______ in the market
surplus

market equilibrium point.
two good that satisfy similar needs or desires
substitutes
for a given time period the marginal utility or satisfaction gained by consuming equal successive units ofa good will decline as the amount consumed increases
law of diminishing marginal utility
the numerical tabulation of the quantity demanded of a good at different prices. A demand scehdule is the numerical representation of the law of demand
demand schedule
for a given time period the marginal utility or satisfaction gained by consuming equal successive units ofa good will decline as the amount consumed increases
law of diminishing marginal utility
the price of a good for example if the price of oranges is $1 this is its own price
