22 Demand A relationship between price and quantity demanded in a given time period, ceteris paribus.

23 What is Demand? Willing and able to purchase a product at a particular price Willing and able to purchase a product at a particular price How many of you would like a Porsche [or like vehicle]? How many of you would like a Porsche [or like vehicle]? How many of you are able? How many of you are able? What’s the difference between willing and able? What’s the difference between willing and able? Idea of time and place – at this time, you may be willing to buy a Porsche, but are not able, therefore you do not have a “DEMAND” for a Porsche Idea of time and place – at this time, you may be willing to buy a Porsche, but are not able, therefore you do not have a “DEMAND” for a Porsche

24 Markets In a market economy, the price of a good is determined by the interaction of demand and supply.

25 Why do we purchase more when a sale occurs?

26 It’s obvious, isn’t it? Consumers love low prices!

27 Look at this demand curve. What happens to quantity purchased as prices rise?

28 As price goes down, demand goes up!

32 The Law of Demand  The law of demand states that consumers buy more of a good when its price decreases.  Conversely, consumers buy less of a good when its price increases.  Consumers love low prices.

33 It really depends on the price, doesn’t it?

34 The Substitution Effect  One reason that the law of demand exists is the substitution effect.  The substitution effect occurs when a consumer reacts to an increase in a good’s price by buying less of that good and more of a similar yet cheaper good.  When the price of orange juice rises, consumers substitute cheaper apple juice for orange juice.

37  Lower prices allow consumers to increase demand.  Lower prices increase consumers’ purchasing power.  This is known as the “income Effect”

38 The Income Effect The income effect is the change in consumption resulting from a change in income. The income effect is the change in consumption resulting from a change in income. In other words, when prices rise, your money buys less. In other words, when prices rise, your money buys less. Higher prices reduce your purchasing power. Higher prices reduce your purchasing power.

40 Economists love graphs because graphs provide easy understanding of economic concepts.

41 If a picture is worth a thousand words, a graph is worth even more.

42 A demand schedule records the quantity demanded at various prices.

43 A demand schedule can easily be converted to a demand curve.

44 Demand curve Draw a Demand curve now. With a verical “price” line and a horizontal “quantity line” and a “0” at the axis.

45 Now plot out the numbers from this demand Schedule for Sony Blu-Ray Players at Best Buy.

46 Demand curve Draw another Demand curve again. With a verical “price” line and a horizontal “quantity line” and a “0” at the axis.

47 Law of Demand  Remember: As price falls, the quantity demanded increases. As the price rises, the quantity demanded decreases  PQD Price For Bruno Mars Ticket at the Moda Center in Portland Quantity of tickets (in thousands) demanded at the given price $500 $404 $308 $2012 $10 $0 16 20
