Market
A set of arrangements through which buyers and
sellers carry out exchange at mutually agreeable
terms.
It determine prices and quantities of goods and
services by bringing together two sides of exchange
demand and supply.
Markets are often physical places, such as
supermarkets, shopping malls etc. Market also
include other mechanisms by which buyers and
sellers
communicate,
like
radio
television
advertisement, telephones etc.
There are two types of market in the economy. These
are Product market and Resource market.

Market Equilibrium
 Market
equilibrium refers a situation in
which the supply of an item is exactly
equal to its demand. Since there is
neither surplus nor shortage in the Market.
 The equilibrium price is the price at which
the quantity demanded equals the
quantity supplied.
 The equilibrium quantity is the quantity
bought and sold at the equilibrium price.

Changes in Equilibrium
Once
a market reaches equilibrium,
that price and quantity will prevail until
one of the determinants of demand or
supply changes.
A
change in any one of these
determinants will usually change
equilibrium price and quantity in a
predictable way
6w/9/2013
Dr. Mazharul Islam
13
Changes in Equilibrium
 An
increase in demand
will cause an increase
in the equilibrium price
and quantity of a good.
The increase in demand
causes excess demand
at the initial price. Excess
demand will cause the
price to rise, and as price
rises producers are willing
to sell more, thereby
increasing output.

Dr. Mazharul Islam
14
Changes in Equilibrium
 A decrease
in demand
will cause a reduction
in the equilibrium price
and quantity of a good.
The decrease in demand
causes excess supply at the
initial price. Excess supply
will cause price to fall, and
as price falls producers are
willing to supply less of the
good, thereby decreasing
output

15
Changes in Equilibrium
 An
increase in supply will
cause a reduction in the
equilibrium price and an
increase in the equilibrium
quantity of a good.
The increase in supply
creates an excess
supply at the initial price.
Excess supply causes
the price to fall and
quantity demanded to
increase.

Changes in Equilibrium
 An
decrease in supply will
cause an increase in the
equilibrium price and a
decrease in the equilibrium
quantity of a good.
The decrease in supply
creates an excess
demand at the initial
price. Excess demand
causes the price to rise
and quantity demanded
to decrease.
