what does demand represent? | It represents the quantity of a product or service that consumers are willing and able to buy at various prices, holding all other factors constant. |
the demand curve is | the entire relationship between the price of the product and the quantity demanded. |
Quantity demanded (QD): is | amount of a good or service that consumers are willing to buy at a particular price. It is not necessarily the quantity actually bought! |
what is the law of demand? | The higher the price of a good, the smaller the quantity demanded:↑P → ↓QD
The lower the price of a good, the greater the quantity demanded: ↓P → ↑QD |
what is the result of the law of demand is being used | movement along the curve. |
name 5 Determinants of Demand: | 1. change in buyers taste
2. change in the number of buyers
3. change in income
4. change in prices of related goods
5. change in consumer expectations |

What does supply represent? | It represents the amount of a product or service that producers are able and willing to sell at various prices, holding all other factors constant. |
The supply curve: | the entire relationship between the quantity supplied and the price |
Quantity supplied (QS) refers to | a point on the supply curve. The quantity supplied at a particular price.
It is not necessarily the quantity actually sold! |
what is the Law of supply? | The higher the price of a good, the greater the quantity supplied: ↑P → ↑QS
The lower the price of a good, the smaller the quantity supplied: ↓P → ↓QS |
The lower the price of a good, the ..... the quantity supplied: | The lower the price of a good, the smaller the quantity supplied: ↓P → ↓QS |
The higher the price of a good, the ...... the quantity supplied: | The higher the price of a good, the greater the quantity supplied: |
explain Higher Price, Greater Quantity Supplied: | When the price (P) of a good increases, suppliers are willing to produce and sell more of that good because higher prices usually mean higher potential profits. This is depicted by the upward arrow (↑) for both price and quantity supplied (QS). |
explain Lower Price, Smaller Quantity Supplied: | Conversely, when the price (P) of a good decreases, suppliers are less inclined to produce and sell as much of that good because lower prices mean lower potential profits. This is shown by the downward arrow (↓) for both price and quantity supplied (QS). |
