T2.Demand and Supply Flashcards
1
Q
Ceteris Paribus
A
Other things equal.
2
Q
Change in Quantity Demanded
A
- In Demand curve where Price vs. Quantity Demanded, moving from (Q1,P1) to (Q2,P2)
- QD=f(p)
- Quantity Demanded is a function of Price. That is if the price changes, Quantity Demanded will change. Only one factor influences Quantity Demanded.
Moves along the Demand Curve. Does not shift demand curve.
3
Q
Change in Supply
A
- Supply will change if there is a change in the determinants of supply (influences on selling plans) other things equal.
- Increase in Supply: Curves shifts to right.
Decrease in Supply: Curve shifts to left
4
Q
Changes in Demand Curve
A
- Demand will change if there is a change in the determinants of demand (influences on buying plans) other things equal (Ceteris Paribus)
- Demand curve will shift to the right if demand increases.
- Demand curve will shift to the left if demand increases.
Five factors of demand. If one changes, it will shift the demand curve.
5
Q
Changes in Demand:
A
- Demand can increase or decrease depending on the five factors.
- Shifts the demand curve.
- Demand Increase in curve goes Right.
Demand Decrease in curve goes left.
6
Q
Consumer Expectations
A
- Rise in the expected future price of a good increases the current demand for that good.
- How the expectations affect demand today, in the future.
(e. g. want to buy a house, focus on housing price goes up. If rational consumer, wants to buy now, if not you will buy more expensive in the future. Housing will go up, demand in the future will go up.)
7
Q
Decrease in Demand
A
- Original EQ: (Q1,P1)
- New EQ: (Q2, P2)
- Decrease in demand, lowers the price and quantity.
Initial effect of a decrease in demand is a surplus.
8
Q
Decrease in Supply
A
- Original EQ: (Q1,P1)
- New EQ: (Q2, P2)
- Decrease in supply, decreases quantity and and increase price.
Initial effect of a decrease in supply is a shortage.
9
Q
Demand (Curve)
A
- Relationship between various prices and quantities demanded.
Demand schedule/curve show the relationship between the price of a product and the quantity demanded.
10
Q
Demand and Supply Summary
A
- Quantity demanded amount a buyer is able to buy at a given price
- Demand: Various prices and various quanittites demand
- Law of Supply. Relationship between price and quantity demanded. Price goes down, quantity demanded goes up.
- Demand Determinants / Influences on Buying Plans is based on Income, price of related goods, consumer expectations, taste or preferences, number of buyers
- Quantity Supplied DNE Supply. Quantity suppllied is a seller is willing and able to sell at a given price. Supply is the schedule that shows the prices and quantities supplied
- Law of supplied if price goes up, quantity goes up. (Direct Relationship)
- Supply Determinants / Influences on Selling Plans (Factors): Input/resources crisis, price of other goods, producer expectations, technology, number of sellers.
- Demand, Supply and market equilibrium: When demand and supply change, this will change the demand and supply curve, and the market equilibrium. When demand increases, it will shift demand curve to the right. If demand decreases, goes left. Supply increases goes right, Supply decreases goes left.
- Shortage and Surplus: When the market is not in equilibrium. Shortage: greater quantity than quantity supply. Surplus: Greater supply than quantity supplied
Changes in demand and supply, will shift demand and supply. This will change the market equilibrium and the market price, and quantity.
11
Q
Determinants of Supply (Influences on Selling Plans)
A
- Input prices (resources prices)
- Prices of Other Goods
- Producer Expectations (Supply Side)
- Technology
Number of Sellers
12
Q
Determinates of Demand (Influences on Buying Plans)
A
- Income
- Price of Related Goods (Substitute and Complementary goods)
- Consumer Expectations
- Tastes/Preferences
Number of Buyers
13
Q
Income
A
Two types of goods: Normal Goods and inferior Goods
14
Q
Increase in Demand and Market Equilibrium
A
- Original EQ Price: (Q1,P1).
- New EQ Price: (Q2, P2)
- Increase in demand will increase price and quantity.
Initial effect of an increase in demand is a shortage.
15
Q
Increase in Supply
A
- Original EQ: (Q1,P1)
- New EQ: (Q2, P2)
- Increase in supply, increases quantity and decreases price.
Initial effect of an increase in supply is a surplus
