  2. Intro to demand • In the USA, the forces of supply and demand work together to set price • Demand is the desire, willingness, and ability to buy a good or service • What are some items/services you have a demand for?

  3. Demand • What made him buy it?

  4. He bought the “Koenigsegg CCXRTrevita” because it’s the most expensive car. It cost nearly $5 million and it shines like millions of diamonds.

  5. Demand • People are normally willing to buy less of a product when the price is high and more of a product when the price is low. • According to the law of demand (assumes all other things are equal), quantity demanded and price move in opposite directions. Therefore, as the price rises its demand falls. For example gas prices today…Price is low and demand is high. • This works in reverse as well; if the price falls then the demand rises.

  6. Supply • All things being equal, as price rises quantity will rise. For example • So why do producers produce more of a product when prices rise? • to seek higher profits • they can cover high cost of production

  7. Shortages vs Surplus • A shortage occurs when quantity demanded exceeds quality supplied. A shortage implies the market price is too low. • A surplus occurs when quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded. A surplus implies the market price is too high ( as a result we get sales)

  8. Shift or changes in the market (Demand) • A change in any variable other than price can influence demand • Factors that can change demand: • change in consumer income • population change • consumer preferences • prices of similar products (competition)

  9. Shift or changes in the market (Supply) • A change in any variable other than price can influence quantity supplied • Factors that shift the supply curve: • change in costs of production • change or increase in technology • change in the size of the market (competition enters into the market)
