Have out notebook and highlighter!! Review notes on supply!! S

1. COSTS OF INPUTS Inputs are the RESOURCES/FACTORS that go into production of a good/service. As cost on inputs increase, supply offered will DECREASE. As cost of inputs decreases, supply offered will INCREASE.

2. Productivity –Relates to the efficiency of the LABOR/WORKFORCE in production –As workers are motivated productivity will INCREASE and therefore supply will INCREASE. –When workers are lazy, unmotivated or apathetic productivity will DECREASE and therefore supply will DECREASE.

3. TECHNOLOGY Different types of TECHNOLOGY can affect the supply of a good/service New technology and innovations will INCREASE supply. Older technology or broken equipment will DECREASE supply

4. TAXES & SUBSIDIES Taxes increase the cost of production and will DECREASE supply Subsidies are government payments to producers to help the business and will INCREASE supply

5. CHANGE IN EXPECTATIONS Expectations about the FUTURE price of a product can also affect the supply curve. If producers think the price of their product will go up in the future they will withhold supply now, thus DECREASING supply. If producers expect lower prices in the future, they will INCREASE their supply now

6. GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS As government establishes new regulations and laws the cost of production can be affected. New regulations mean more costs and therefore will DECREASE supply. Relaxing restrictions or removing regulations will INCREASE supply

7. NUMBER OF SELLERS The number of sellers in the market for a product will affect the market supply curve. As more suppliers enter the market the supply of that product will INCREASE As suppliers go out of business the market supply of that product will DECREASE

Let’s Look at a Scenario: 1.A new assembly line is created at Ford plants. How will this affect the supply of Fords? The Supply of Cars will _________ due to __________; therefore the curve will shift ___________. Increase Technology Right

Let’s Look at a Scenario: 2. The Gov’t raises a duty on all companies that import fruit from other countries. How will this affect the supply of bananas? The Supply of bananas will _________ due to __________; therefore the curve will shift ___________. Decrease Taxes & Subs Left
