Unit 2: Supply, Demand, and Consumer Choice
2
Demand Review What are the two key aspects of the definition of demand? What is the Law of Demand? Give an example of the substitution effect Give an example of the income effect Give an example of the law of diminishing marginal utility Explain how the law of diminishing marginal utility causes the law of demand How do you determine the MARKET demand for a particular good? (from reading) Name 10 fast food places

This is a change in demand, not a change in quantity demanded
Shifts in Demand CHANGES IN DEMAND Ceteris paribus-“all other things held constant.” When the ceteris paribus assumption is dropped, movement no longer occurs along the demand curve. Rather, the entire demand curve shifts. A shift means that at the same prices, more people are willing and able to purchase that good. This is a change in demand, not a change in quantity demanded Changes in price DON’T shift the curve!

What Causes a Shift in Demand?
5 Shifters (Determinates) of Demand: Tastes and Preferences Number of Consumers Price of Related Goods Income Future Expectations Changes in PRICE don’t shift the curve. It only causes movement along the curve.

Prices of Related Goods
The demand curve for one good can be affected by a change in the price of ANOTHER related good. Substitutes are goods used in place of one another. If the price of one increases, the demand for the other will increase (or vice versa) Ex: If price of Pepsi falls, demand for coke will… 2. Complements are two goods that are bought and used together. If the price of one increase, the demand for the other will fall. (or vice versa) Ex: If price of peanut butter falls, demand for jelly will...

Income The incomes of consumer change the demand, but how depends on the type of good. Normal Goods As income increases, demand increases As income falls, demand falls Ex: Luxury cars, Sea Food, jewelry, homes 2. Inferior Goods As income increases, demand falls As income falls, demand increases Ex: Top Romen, used cars, used cloths, Spam-Inferior Yachts- Normal Off Brand Cereal-Inferior McDonald’s-Inferior Toilet Paper- Probably no connection to income (The point-some products are very reliant on income and others are not)

How will predictions of the future influence demand now?
Future expectations How will predictions of the future influence demand now? If you expect prices to go up next week on milk the demand for milk this week …………

Change in Qd vs. Change in Demand
There are two ways to increase quantity from 10 to 20 Price of Cereal P A to B is a change in quantity demand (due to a change in price) A to C is a change in demand (shift in the curve) A C $3 $2 B D2 D1 o Q Cereal Quantity of Cereal
40
Practice First, identify the determinant (shifter) then decide if demand will increase or decrease Shifter Increase or Decrease Left or Right 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Number of consumers, increase. Income, decrease. Substitutes, decrease. Price doesn’t shift curve, no change. Tastes and preferences, decrease. Expectations, increase. Complements, decrease.
41
Hamburgers (a normal good)
Practice First identify the determinant (Shifter). Then decide if demand will increase or decrease Hamburgers (a normal good) Population boom Incomes fall due to recession Price for Carne Asada burritos falls to $1 Price increases to $5 for hamburgers New health craze- “No ground beef” Hamburger restaurants announce that they will significantly increase prices NEXT month Government heavily taxes shake and fries causes their prices to quadruple. Restaurants lower price of burgers to $.50 Number of consumers, increase. Income, decrease. Substitutes, decrease. Price doesn’t shift curve, no change. Tastes and preferences, decrease. Expectations, increase. Complements, decrease. 41 41
42
Hamburgers (a normal good)
TOD Name the shifter and whether it is an increase or decrease in DEMAND (Not Quantity Demand) Hamburgers (a normal good) Price increases to $5 for hamburgers New health craze- “No ground beef” Hamburger restaurants announce that they will significantly increase prices NEXT month Government heavily taxes shake and fries causes their prices to quadruple. Number of consumers, increase. Income, decrease. Substitutes, decrease. Price doesn’t shift curve, no change. Tastes and preferences, decrease. Expectations, increase. Complements, decrease. 42 42

Work on handouts Individually or in groups Make sure your name is on it Turn it in
45
TOD Does demand or quantity demand change when the price of the good increases? Does the demand curve shift when the price of an item goes down? What is the completed definition of Demand? What is the law of demand
