Study Notes

Demand

Demand reflects the amount of a good or service consumers are willing and able to purchase at different prices within a specific timeframe.
Desire alone is insufficient; consumers need the financial means to make a purchase.
Effective demand incorporates desire, affordability, and willingness to pay.
Quantity demanded is presented for a specific price and represents a continuous flow, not a single transaction.

Factors Affecting Demand

Price:
- Higher prices lead to a lower quantity demanded, and vice-versa.
- This principle is governed by income and substitution effects.
Price of Related Products:
- Complementary Goods: These are goods consumed together (e.g., tea and sugar). An increase in price for one complementary good typically reduces demand for both.
- Substitute Goods: These are goods that can be used interchangeably (e.g., butter and margarine). A rise in price of one substitute good increases demand for the other.
