Chapter 3: Where Prices Come From: The Interaction of Demand and Supply FIGURE 3-1 A Demand Schedule and Demand Curve The Demand Side of the Market Demand Schedules and Demand Curves As the price changes, consumers change the quantity of energy drinks they are willing to buy. We can show this as a demand schedule in a table or as a demand curve on a graph. The table and graph both show that as the price of energy drinks falls, the quantity demanded rises. When the price of energy drinks is $3.00, consumers buy 60 million cans per day. When the price drops to $2.50, consumers buy 70 million cans. Therefore, the demand curve for energy drinks is downward sloping. Discuss the variables that influence demand. 3.1 LEARNING OBJECTIVE

Chapter 3: Where Prices Come From: The Interaction of Demand and Supply FIGURE 3-3 A Change in Demand versus a Change in Quantity Demanded If the price of digital music players falls from $3.00 to $2.50, the result will be a movement along the demand curve from point A to point B—an increase in quantity demanded from 60 million cans to 70 million cans. If consumers’ incomes increase, or if another factor changes that makes consumers want more of the product at every price, the demand curve will shift to the right—an increase in demand. In this case, the increase in demand from D 1 to D 2 causes the quantity of energy drinks demanded at a price of $3.00 to increase from 60 million cans at point A to 80 million cans at point C.

If the price of an input decreases or another factor changes that makes sellers supply more of the product at every price, the supply curve will shift to the right—an increase in supply. In this case, the increase in supply from S 1 to S 2 causes the quantity of energy drinks supplied at a price of $2.50 to increase from 90 million cans at point B to 110 million cans at point C.

In this case, the demand curve for energy drinks crosses the supply curve at a price of $2.00 and a quantity of 80 million cans. Only at this point is the quantity of energy drinks consumers are willing to buy equal to the quantity that Red Bull, Monster Energy, Rockstar, and the other firms are willing to sell: The quantity demanded is equal to the quantity supplied.

Chapter 3: Where Prices Come From: The Interaction of Demand and Supply Market Equilibrium: Putting Demand and Supply Together FIGURE 3-8 The Effect of Surpluses and Shortages on the Market Price How Markets Eliminate Surpluses and Shortages When the market price is above equilibrium, there will be a surplus. In the figure, a price of $2.50 for energy drinks results in 90 million cans being supplied but only 70 million cans being demanded, or a surplus of 20 million. As Red Bull, Monster Energy, Rockstar, and the other firms cut the price to dispose of the surplus, the price will fall to the equilibrium of $2.00. When the market price is below equilibrium, there will be a shortage. A price of $1.00 results in 100 million cans being demanded but only 60 million cans being supplied, or a shortage of 40 million cans. As consumers who are unable to buy energy drinks offer to pay higher prices, the price will rise to the equilibrium of $2.00. Use a graph to illustrate market equilibrium. 3.3 Learning Objective

As Coca-Cola enters the market for energy drinks, a larger quantity of energy drinks will be supplied at every price, so the market supply curve shifts to the right, from S 1 to S 2, which causes a surplus of cans at the original price, P The equilibrium price falls from P 1 to P The equilibrium quantity rises from Q 1 to Q 2. If a firm enters a market, as Coca-Cola entered the market for energy drinks when it launched Full Throttle, the equilibrium price will fall, and the equilibrium quantity will rise: Use demand and supply graphs to predict changes in prices and quantities. 3.4 Learning Objective
