S1 S2 Price Quantity S1 to S2 = Increase in Supply
10
S2 S1 Price Quantity S1 to S2 = Decrease in Supply

Determinants of Supply
Resource prices Technology Taxes and subsidies Prices of other goods Substitutes & Compliments Producer expectations Number of sellers 3-11

Change in Quantity Supplied
Individual Supply Supply Can Increase or Decrease P 6 5 4 3 2 1 S3 Individual Supply S1 Change in Quantity Supplied S2 P Qs $5 4 3 2 1 60 50 35 20 5 Price (per bushel) Change in Supply Q Quantity Supplied (bushels per week) 3-12
14
Price Elasticity The degree in which price changes effect quantity supplied Small price changes that effect quantity supplied A LOT is elastic Small price changes that have little to no effect on quantity supplied is inelastic
15
Two Reasons for Elasticity:
Availability of Inputs Adjust for time Examples: Pizza: Elastic (availability of inputs) Flu Vaccine: Inelastic (adjust for time)

S Price Inelastic P2 Big Change P1 Q1 Q2 Quantity Small Change
17
