Market Demand:
Perfect Competition
Chapter 8
Discussion Topics
Derivation of market supply curve
Elasticity of supply and producer surplus
Market equilibrium under perfect
competition
Total economic surplus
Adjustments to market equilibrium
2
Remember the firm’s
supply curve?
P=MR=AR

Page 131
Profit maximizing firm will desire
to produce where MC=MR
P3=MR3=AR3
P2=MR2=AR2
P1=MR1=AR1
Firm’s supply curve starts
at shut down output level
 Where MR < AVC
4
Economic losses occur
where MC > MR

Building the Industry Supply Curve
Market supply curve:
The
horizontal summation of the
supply decisions of all firms
in the market
 At a price of $1.50, Gary would
supply 2 tons of broccoli

Determining Market Equilibrium
With the above we have identified the
Market Supply Curve
Previously we derived the Market Demand
Curve
Horizontal summation of individual demand
curves
We can combine these concepts to identify
what is referred to as the Market
Equilibrium

Concept of Producer Surplus
Producer Surplus (PS) is a term
economists use for aggregate returns
over total variable costs
PS measured as the area above the
supply curve and below market
equilibrium price
 Remember the supply curve is
determined by individual MC
curves

Assessing Economic Welfare
We can use the concepts of market
demand and supply to
Assess the effects of events in the
economy on the economic well being of
consumers and producers
 For a particular market
 During a specific time period
We do this using the concept of total
economic surplus (TES) defined as:
TES = CS + PS

 How can we determine the value of Q*

(1) Substitute demand and supply equations into
equilibrium condition
(2) Solve for equilibrium price (P*)
(3) Substitute this price into either supply or
demand equation for Q*
Page 221
Modeling Commodity Prices
 How can we determine the value of Q* and P*
1) Substitute demand and supply equations
into equilibrium condition
Q* =QD = QS→ (50 – 6P) = (42 + 4P)
2) Solve for equilibrium price (P*)
50 – 6P = 42 + 4P → 8 + 10P = 0
→P* = 8/10 = 0.80
3) Substitute this price into either supply or
demand equation for Q*
Demand Equation
QD* = 50 – 6P* = 50 – 6(0.8) = 50 – 4.8 = 45.2
Supply Equation
QS* = 42 + 4P* = 42 + 4(0.8) = 42 + 3.2 = 45.2

Market Disequilibrium
Markets converge to equilibrium over
time unless other events in the economy
occur
 One explanation for this adjustment which
makes sense for agriculture is the Cobweb
theory
 This names comes from the spider weblike trail the adjustment process makes
34
Market Disequilibrium
Lets use the example of a grain producer
Producers tend to use last year’s price
(P1) as their expected price for this year
(year 2)
In contrast, consumer’s pay this years
price (P2) determined by market
equilibrium Q2

From the above results we have the
following:
(P1 – P2) > (P3 – P2) > (P3 – P4)
Price changes are getting smaller
(Q2 – Q1) > (Q2 – Q3) > (Q4 – Q3)
Quantity changes are getting smaller

Some Important Jargon
As we noted before we distinguish
between
 Movement along a particular demand
or supply curve
 Referred to as a change in quantity
demanded or supplied
 Shifts in the demand or supply curve
 Referred to as a change in demand
or supply

Summary
Market equilibrium price and quantity are
given by the intersection of demand and supply
Producer surplus captures the profit earned in
the market by producers
Total economic surplus is equal to producer
surplus plus consumer surplus
A market surplus exists when the quantity
supplied exceeds the quantity demanded.
A market shortage exists when the quantity
demanded exceeds the quantity supplied.
