Study Notes
Price Determination and Market Equilibrium
- The best price is the one where quantity supplied equals quantity demanded.
- This price maximizes the combined welfare of buyers and sellers.
- It minimizes buyer expenditure and seller costs are maximized.
Producer Surplus at a Specific Price
- At a price of P2, producer surplus is represented by area A + C in the graph.
Changes in Producer Surplus
- When price falls from P2 to P1, producer surplus decreases by the area A + B.
- An increase in demand with constant supply results in an increase in consumer surplus
Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
- Measures both income and expenditure
- Includes goods and services.
Recessions
- A recession is a period of declining real GDP for two consecutive quarters.
Comparative Advantage and Trade
- A country has a comparative advantage in producing a good if it can produce it at a lower opportunity cost than another country.
- If Brazil has an absolute advantage in almonds but another country has a comparative advantage, Brazil will likely import almonds.
Consumer Surplus
- At equilibrium, consumer surplus is represented by the area A+B+C.
Total Surplus
- Total surplus is represented by the sum of consumer and producer surplus at equilibrium. A+B+C+D+H+F
- Total surplus = consumer surplus + producer surplus
- At the equilibrium price, total surplus is maximized.
Price and Consumer Surplus
- At a price of P3, consumer surplus is represented by the area A.
Total Surplus Measurement
- Total surplus is represented by JNL.
Consumer Surplus and Consumer Willingness to Pay
- When the price is equal to a consumer's willingness to pay, consumer surplus is zero.
