10. Law of Demand As price goes up quantity goes down As price goes down quantity goes up People buy less of something at higher prices than they do at lower prices.

11. ELASTIC DEMAND: demand that is very sensitive to a change in price goods that one might stop buying or cut back on as price increased (SUVs, Luxury items)**on a graph this demand curve will be FLAT

12. INELASTIC DEMAND demand that is not very sensitive to a change in price goods that you would buy at any price; there are few if any substitutes for these goods. (milk, gas, prescription drugs) **on a graph this demand curve would be very steep.

13. Illustration of Decrease and Increase in Demand Decrease in Price Increase in Price Price Price D2 D1 D2 D1 Quantity Quantity The less you buy the more you will move to the left!

14. The Demand Curve The Demand Curve slopes downward to the right because the consumer is willing and able to buy more gasoline at lower prices than at higher prices.

40. Supply

41. Discuss Now you are the producer Think about the business you are creating Things are now going to reverse

42. Supply Description The quantity of goods a producer is willing and able to sell at various prices at a particular time. P S1 Q

43. Quantity Supplied The quantity of goods a producer is willing and able to sell at a set price at a particular time. P S1 Q

44. Supply Schedule A list of quantities supplied by a provider at certain prices Price Quantity $.50 1 $1.00 2 $1.50 3 $2.00 4 $2.50 5

45. Law of Supply As price goes up, quantity goes up As price goes down, quantity goes down More items will be offered for sale at a higher price than at a lower price

46. Illustrate an Increase in Supply Price S1 S2 Quantity

47. Illustrate a Decrease in Supply Price S2 S1 Quantity

48. Supply Curve The Supply Curve slopes upward and to the right because the producer is willing and able to sell more products at higher prices than at lower prices.

49. Change in Supply

50. Reasons for change in Supply Cost of Inputs Number of Suppliers Weather

51. Costs of Inputs Decrease Effect on Supply Supply Increases (shift right) Spending less to run the business Examples Land Labor Capital P S1 S2 Q

52. Number of Suppliers Increases Effect on Supply Supply Increases (shift right) Example: Basketballs Dicks Sporting Goods Sports Authority Footlocker P S1 S2 Q

53. Weather is bad for product S2 Effect on Supply Supply Decreases (shift left) Example A hurricane during the orange growing season P S1 Q

54. SO… can you apply this knowledge? 1) Together lets decide if the following scenarios are a change in… Input costs Number of suppliers Weather 2) Then decide if it will Increase supply Decrease Supply

55. Situation #1 Dick’s Sporting Goods goes out of business. What is the impact on basketballs in Charlotte? -number of suppliers changes -Supply Decreases

56. Situation #2 A hurricane destroys the orange groves in Florida. What is the impact on the supply of Orange Juice? -weather changes -Supply Decreases

59. Supply and Demand together

60. Equilibrium: the point at which quantity demanded and quantity supplied are equal

61. At a point of equilibrium…. the price and quantity are balanced the market for a good/service is stable

62. Disequilibrium: any price or quantity not at equilibrium

63. Excess Demand: when quantity demanded is more than quantity supplied aka SHORTAGE!!!! shortage

64. Excess Supply: when quantity supplied is more than quantity demanded aka SURPLUS!!!! surplus

65. A shift in the demand curve or the supply curve will result in a new equilibrium price.

66. Government Intervention in a Market Economy Price Ceiling: a maximum price that can be legally charged for a good or service (example: rent control) Price Floor: a minimum price for a good or service (example: minimum wage)

67. Inflation and Deflation Inflation: a general increase in prices (over the years, prices rise and fall, but in the American economy, they have mostly risen) Deflation: A substantial drop in the prices
