Study Notes
Microeconomic Price Determination
- The economic model of price determination in a market is called the supply and demand model.
- This model postulates that, in a competitive market, the unit price of a good will adjust until the quantity demanded by consumers equals the quantity supplied by producers, reaching market equilibrium.
- The concept of supply and demand forms the foundation of this model.
Macroeconomic Output and Price Level Determination
- The aggregate supply-aggregate demand (AS-AD) model is used in macroeconomics to illustrate how the quantity of total output and the aggregate price level are determined in equilibrium.
Supply Schedule
- A supply schedule is a table that shows the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity supplied at each price level, holding all other factors constant.
