Demand and supply analysis Market equilibrium and Efficiency
What is Market Equilibrium • It occurs at the price where the quantity demanded and quantity supplied are equal • Also called the “market-clearing price” – everything put on the market, at that price, is sold
The Determination of Price • Equilibrium price and output • response to shortages and surpluses • significance of “equilibrium” • Demand and supply curves

The Determination of Price • Equilibrium price and output • response to shortages and surpluses • significance of “equilibrium” • Demand and supply curves • effect of price being above equilibrium
The Determination of Price • Equilibrium price and output • response to shortages and surpluses • significance of “equilibrium” • Demand and supply curves • effect of price being above equilibrium • surplus price falls

The Determination of Price • Equilibrium price and output • response to shortages and surpluses • significance of “equilibrium” • Demand and supply curves • effect of price being above equilibrium • surplus price falls • effect of price being below equilibrium
The Determination of Price • Equilibrium price and output • response to shortages and surpluses • significance of “equilibrium” • Demand and supply curves • effect of price being above equilibrium • surplus price falls • effect of price being below equilibrium • shortage price rises

Price Mechanism Forces of supply and demand move markets to equilibrium Helps to allocate scarce resources Resources are allocated and re-allocated in response to changes in price If there is an increase in the price of a good, due to an increase in demand for the good, this gives a ‘signal’ to producers that consumers wish to buy this good Higher price will give producers an incentive to produce more of a good
Effect of a shift in the demand curve i h P As producers realize they can raise the price, they produce more, a movement upwards along the S curve. As consumers see the higher prices, they decrease the qty demanded, a movement up & left along the new D curve. New higher equilibrium price signals product scarcity.
