The Law of Demand The Law of Demand Holding everything else constant, when the price of a product falls, the quantity demanded of the product will increase, and when the price of a product rises, the quantity demanded of the product will decrease. © 2006 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Economics R. Glenn Hubbard, Anthony Patrick O’Brien—1st ed. 5 of 40 CHAPTER 3: Where Prices Come From: The Interaction of Demand and Supply The Demand Side of the Market What Explains the Law of Demand? Substitution effect The change in the quantity demanded of a good that results from a change in price making the good more or less expensive relative to other goods that are substitutes. Income effect The change in the quantity demanded of a good that results from the effect of a change in the good’s price on consumer purchasing power. © 2006 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Economics R. Glenn Hubbard, Anthony Patrick O’Brien—1st ed. 6 of 40 CHAPTER 3: Where Prices Come From: The Interaction of Demand and Supply The Demand Side of the Market Holding Everything Else Constant: The Ceteris Paribus Condition Ceteris paribus (“all else equal”) The requirement that when analyzing the relationship between two variables—such as price and quantity demanded—other variables must be held constant. © 2006 Prentice Hall Business Publishing Economics R.
