Demand: determinants of demand.
 The following factors determine the
demand for a good:
 Price of the good
 Tastes
 Information
 Prices of related goods
 Complements and substitutes
 Income
 Government rules and regulations
 Other

Demand: the demand curve
 Quantity demanded - the amount of a
good that consumers are willing to buy
at a given price, holding constant the
other factors that influence purchases.
 Demand curve - the quantity demanded
at each possible price, holding constant
the other factors that influence
purchases

The Demand Function
 The processed pork demand function is:
Q = D(p, pb, pc, Y)
where Q is the quantity of pork demanded
 p is the price of pork (dollars per kg)
 pb is the price of beef (dollars per kg)
 pc is the price of chicken (dollars per kg)
 pf is the price of feed (dollars per kg)
 Y is the income of consumers (thousand
dollars)

 The following factors determine the
supply for a good:

 Costs

Supply: the demand curve
 Quantity supplied - the amount of a
good that firms want to sell at a given
price, holding constant other factors that
influence firms’ supply decisions, such
as costs and government actions
 Supply curve - the quantity supplied at
each possible price, holding constant
the other factors that influence firms’
supply decisions

The Supply Function
 The processed pork supply function is:
Q = S(p, ph)
 where Q is the quantity of pork supplied
 p is the price of pork (dollars per kg)
 ph is the price of a hog (dollars per kg)


Estimated demand function for pork:
Q = 178 + 40p−60ph

Using the values ph = $1.50 per kg
Q = 88 + 40p.

Market Equilibrium
 Equilibrium - a situation in which no
one wants to change his or her behavior.
 excess demand the amount by which the
quantity demanded exceeds the quantity
supplied at a specified price.
 excess supply the amount by which the
quantity supplied is greater than the
quantity demanded at a specified price

Using Math to Determine the
Equilibrium
 Demand: Qd = 286 − 20p
 Supply: Qs = 88 + 40p
 Equilibrium:
Qd = Qs
286 − 20p = 88 + 40p
60p = 198
P = $3.30
Q = 286 – 20(3.3) = 220

Equilibrium: Practice Problem
 The demand function for a good is
Q = a−bp, and the supply function is
Q = c + ep, where a, b, c, and e are
positive constants. Solve for the
equilibrium price and quantity in
terms of these four constants.

Shocking the Equilibrium
The equilibrium changes only if a shock
occurs that shifts the demand curve or the
supply curve. These curves shift if one of
the variables we were holding constant
changes.

Solved Problem 2.3
 Mathematically, how does the
equilibrium price of pork vary as the
price of hogs changes if the variables
that affect demand are held constant at
their typical values?

2-25
Solved Problem 2.3: Solution
1. Solve for the equilibrium price of pork in
terms of the price of hogs.
Qd = 286−20p
Qs = 178 + 40p−60ph
286−20p = 178 + 40p−60ph
60p = 108 – 60ph
p = 1.8 – ph
2. Show how the equilibrium price of pork varies
with the price of hogs.

Since Δp = Δph, any increase in the price of hogs
causes an equal increase in the price of
processed pork.

Solved Problem 2.4
 In the first few weeks after the U.S. ban,
the quantity of beef sold in Japan fell
substantially, and the price rose. In
contrast, three weeks after the first
discovery, the U.S. price in January
2004 fell by about 15% and the quantity
sold increased by 43% over the last
week in October 2003. Use supply-anddemand diagrams to explain why these
events occurred.

Solved Problem 2.5
 What is the effect of a United States
quota on steel of Q on the equilibrium in
the U.S. steel market? Hint: The answer
depends on whether the quota binds (is
low enough to affect the equilibrium).

Why Supply Need Not Equal Demand
 The quantity that firms want to sell and
the quantity that consumers want to buy
at a given price need not equal the
actual quantity that is bought and sold.
 Example: price ceiling.

Perfectly competitive markets
 Everyone is a price taker.
 Firms sell identical products.
 Everyone has full information about the
price and quality of goods.
 Costs of trading are low.
