  1. DEMAND • The relationship between demand and price • the law of demand • the income effect • the substitution effect • The demand curve

  2. DEMAND • Other determinants of demand • tastes • number and price of substitute goods • number and price of complementary goods • income • distribution of income • expectations • Movements along and shifts in the demand curve

  3. An increase in demand P Price D0 D1 O Q0 Q1 Quantity

  4. SUPPLY • The relationship between supply and price • The supply curve • why supply curves generally slope upwards • Other determinants of supply • costs of production • profitability of alternative products (substitutes in supply) • profitability of goods in joint supply • nature and other random shocks • aims of producers • expectations of producers • Number of producers

  5. Shifts in the supply curve P S2 S0 S1 Decrease Increase O Q

  12. ELASTICITY • Elasticity • use of proportionate or percentage changes • the sign (positive or negative) • the value (greater or less than one) • Price elasticity of demand (PÎd): determinants • number and closeness of substitute goods • the proportion of income spent on the good • time

  13. ELASTICITY • Price elasticity of demand and consumer expenditure (P x Q) • effects of a price change on expenditure: elastic demand • effects of a price change on expenditure: inelastic demand • extreme cases • applications to price decisions

  14. ELASTICITY • Measurement of elasticity: arc elasticity • the formula for price elasticity of demand: Q/Q ÷ P/P • using the average or 'mid-point' method

  15. Measuring elasticity using the arc method DQ DP Ped = ¸ mid Q mid P m 10-2 15 7 ¸ = = 10/15 x -7/2 = -70/30 = -7/3 = -2.33 n P (£) Demand Q (000s)

  16. ELASTICITY • Measurement of elasticity: point elasticity • the formula for price elasticity of demand: dQ/dP x P/Q • the elasticity of a straight-line demand ‘curve’ (constant dQ/dP) • the elasticity of a curved demand curve: dQ/dP is the tangent to the curve

  17. Measuring elasticity at a point 50 Ped = (1 / slope) x P/Q = -100/50 x 30/40 = -60/40 = -1.5 r 30 P D 0 100 40 Q

  18. Supply in different time periods P Si SS b P2 c SL P3 d P4 P1 a D2 D1 O Q4 Q1 Q3 Q

  19. ELASTICITY • Income elasticity of demand • measurement • determinants • applications • Cross-price elasticity of demand • measurement • determinants • applications
