    Study Notes

    Relationship Between Demand and Supply

    • Demand and supply are fundamental concepts in economics that describe how prices and quantities of goods are determined in a market.
    • The interaction between demand and supply affects market equilibrium, where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied.

    Demand and Supply Curves

    • The demand curve illustrates the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity demanded by consumers, typically sloping downward.
    • The supply curve represents the relationship between the price of a good and the quantity supplied by producers, usually sloping upward.

    Impact of Price Decrease on Quantity Demanded

    • When the price of a good or service decreases, the quantity demanded generally increases, reflecting the law of demand.
    • Consumers tend to buy more of a product as it becomes more affordable.

    Role of Supply in Overall Demand

    • Supply influences overall demand by determining the availability of goods in the market.
    • An increase in supply can lead to lower prices, which may encourage higher demand from consumers.

    Market Equilibrium and Intersection of Curves

    • The point where the demand and supply curves intersect is known as the market equilibrium.
    • At this point, the market is in balance, as the quantity of goods demanded equals the quantity of goods supplied, resulting in a stable market price.
