Q

How to read the graphs with both Supply and Demand Curves? (X shaped)

A
  1. Draw a horizontal line from price to both the sloped lines
  2. Determine which is supply and which is demand (Supply + slope, Demand - slope)
  3. Determine the supply and demand of the good according to these values

Q

Price adjustments! Theory of all three first

WHAT IS THIS PRICING SYSTEM THEORY CALLLLLLLLLLED

A
  1. When Surplus, prices go down because they wanna reach market equilibrium
  2. When Shortage, prices go up becase they wanna reach parket equilibrium
  3. When equilibrium Prices stay the same

Q

Price adjustments formulas

A
  1. P>Pe= surplus= P going down
  2. P<Pe= shortage = P going up
  3. P=Pe= equilibrium= P stay the same (P with dash over head)

Q

When you have to do those determine new equilibrium price/quantity q’s how do you do?

A
  1. Which curve shifts/ Does any?
  2. How does this curve move???? LEFT OR RIGHT
  3. Draw a diagram X and see how the new price and quantity change!!!

A

LABEL S AND D FIRST BETCH

18
Q

Determining Q and P algebraically

A

1.Sub one into other
2. Simplify and solve for variables
3.check

19
Q

Law of demand- price increases changes what

A

PRICE INCREASES results in QUANTITY DEMANDED decreasing!!!!!!

NOT demand decrease- QUANTITY DEMANDED decreasing

20
Q

Law of supply and demand

A

It states that the price of any good
adjusts to bring the quantity supplied and the quantity demanded for
that good into balance
