4. What if the price increases to $4?
Supply and Demand are put together to determine equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity
What if the price
increases to $4? P

5. How much is the surplus at $4?
At $4, there is disequilibrium. The quantity demanded is less than quantity supplied. P
Supply Schedule
Demand Schedule S $5 4 3 2 1
Surplus
(Qd<Qs) P Qd $5 10 $4 20 $3 30 $2 50 $1 80 P Qs $5 50 $4 40 $3 30 $2 20 $1 10
How much is the surplus at $4?
Answer: 20 D o Q 5

6. How much is the surplus if the price is $5?
What if the price
decreases to $2? P

Demand Schedule S $5 4 3 2 1 P Qd $5 10 $4 20 $3 30 $2 50 $1 80 P Qs $5 50 $4 40 $3 30 $2 20 $1 10
Answer: 40 D o Q 6

7. How much is the shortage at $2?
At $2, there is disequilibrium. The quantity demanded is greater than quantity supplied. P
Supply Schedule
Demand Schedule S $5 4 3 2 1 P Qd $5 10 $4 20 $3 30 $2 50 $1 80 P Qs $5 50 $4 40 $3 30 $2 20 $1 10
How much is the shortage at $2?
Answer: 30
Shortage
(Qd>Qs) D o Q 7

8. How much is the shortage if the price is $1?
Supply Schedule
Demand Schedule S $5 4 3 2 1 P Qd $5 10 $4 20 $3 30 $2 50 $1 80 P Qs $5 50 $4 40 $3 30 $2 20 $1 10
Answer: 70 D o Q 8

9. The FREE MARKET system automatically pushes the price toward equilibrium.
Supply Schedule
Demand Schedule S $5 4 3 2 1
When there is a surplus, producers lower prices P Qd $5 10 $4 20 $3 30 $2 50 $1 80 P Qs $5 50 $4 40 $3 30 $2 20 $1 10
When there is a shortage, producers raise prices D o Q 9

10. Shifting Supply and Demand

11. Assume shifts in supply or demand change equilibrium P and Q instantaneously11

12. Supply and Demand Analysis
Easy as 1, 2, 3
Before the change:
Draw supply and demand
Label original equilibrium price and quantity
The change:
Did it affect supply or demand first?
Which determinant caused the shift?
Draw increase or decrease
After change:
Label new equilibrium?
What happens to Price? (increase or decrease)
What happens to Quantity? (increase or decrease)

13. Use a S&D to explain this shift13

14. Voluntary Exchange
In the free-market, buyers and sellers voluntarily come together to seek mutual benefits.

15. Voluntary Exchange
In the free-market, buyers and sellers voluntarily come together to seek mutual benefits.

16. Voluntary Exchange
In the free-market, buyers and sellers voluntarily come together to seek mutual benefits.

17. Voluntary Exchange
In the free-market, buyers and sellers voluntarily come together to seek mutual benefits.

18. Example of Voluntary Exchange
Ex: You want to buy a truck so you go to the local dealership. You are willing to spend up to $20,000 for a new 4x4. The seller is willing to sell this truck for no less than $15,000. After some negotiation you buy the truck for $18,000.
Analysis:
Buyer’ Maximum-
Sellers Minimum-
Price-
Consumer’s Surplus-
Producer’s Surplus-
$20,000
$15,000
$18,000
$2,000
$3,000

19. Voluntary Exchange Terms
Consumer Surplus is the difference between what you are willing to pay and what you actually pay.
CS = Buyer’s Maximum – Price
Producer’s Surplus is the difference between the price the seller received and how much they were willing to sell it for.
PS = Price – Seller’s Minimum
