Markets
• Any institution where buyers and
•
LO1
sellers interact
– Buyers = Demanders
– Sellers = Suppliers
Price is determined in the interactions
of buyers and sellers
Demand
• Schedule or curve
• Amount consumers are willing and
•
•
LO1
able to purchase at a given price
Other things equal
Market demand
Law of Demand
• Other things equal, as price falls,
quantity demanded rises, and as
price rises, quantity demanded falls.
• Reasons:
• Common sense
• Law of diminishing marginal utility
• Income effect and substitution effects
LO1
Determinants of Demand
• Factors other than price
• Usually assumed to be constant
• When a determinant changes,
demand shifts
LO1
Demand vs. Quantity Demanded
• Change in demand
• Refers to shift of entire demand
•
LO2
curve to left or right
Cause: Change in determinants of
demand
Determinants of Demand
1) Change in buyer’s tastes
2) Change in number of buyers
3) Change in income
• Normal Goods
• Inferior Goods
LO1
Determinants of Demand
4) Change in prices of related goods
• Complements
• Substitutes
• Chris Rock

Determinants of Demand
5) Change in consumers’ expectations
• Future prices
• Future income
• Future product availability
LO1
Demand vs. Quantity Demanded
• Change in demand
• Refers to shift of entire demand
•
LO2
curve to left or right
Cause: Change in determinants of
demand
Demand vs. Quantity Demanded
• Change in quantity demanded
• Refers to movement from one point
•
LO2
to another on fixed demand curve
Cause: Change in price of good
under consideration
Supply
• Schedule or curve
• Amount producers are willing and
•
•
LO2
able to sell at a given price
Other things equal
Market supply
Law of Supply
• Other things equal, as price rises
•
LO2
quantity supplied rises and as price
falls quantity supplied falls.
Reason:
• Higher prices act as an incentive to
producers
• At some point costs will rise
Determinants of Supply
• Factors other than price
• Usually assumed to be constant
• When a determinant changes, supply
shifts
LO1
Determinants of Supply
1. A change in resource prices
2. A change in technology
LO2
Computer-Aided Design and
Manufacturing
• Computer-Aided Design
(CAD) -- The use of
computers in the design of
products.
• Computer-Aided
Manufacturing (CAM) -The use of computers in the
manufacturing of products.

Determinants of Supply
3. A change in taxes and subsidies
4. A change in prices of other goods
5. A change in producer expectations
6. A change in the number of sellers
LO2
Supply vs. Quantity Supplied
• Change in supply
• Refers to shift of entire supply curve
•
LO2
to left or right
Cause: Change in determinants of
supply
Supply vs. Quantity Supplied
• Change in quantity supplied
• Refers to movement from one point

Market Shortage
• Occurs when current price is too low
• Quantity demanded exceeds quantity
•

supplied at the current price
Current price will rise.

Market Surplus
• Occurs when current price is too high
• Quantity supplied exceeds quantity
•
LO3
demanded at the current price
Current price will fall
Market Equilibrium
• Price which equates quantity
•
•
LO3
demanded and quantity supplied
No reason for price to change
Crisis
Efficient Allocation
• Productive efficiency
• Producing goods in the least costly way
• Using the best technology
• Using the right mix of resources
• Allocative efficiency
• Producing the right mix of goods
• The combination of goods most highly
valued by society

which selling and buying decisions are
consistent
