1 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Learning Objectives Explain the law of demand Distinguish between changes in demand and changes in quantity demanded Explain the law of supply Distinguish between changes in supply and changes in quantity supplied Understand how supply and demand interact to determine equilibrium price and quantity Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply 3

2 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Did You Know That... The average price of an apartment-sized condominium has often exceeded the average price of a standalone house? The relative physical size of items does not determine the prices at which people exchange them for? By using demand and supply you can develop a better understanding of why relative size of an item typically has little to do with the price at which it sells? Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

3 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Markets Markets Arrangements that individuals have for exchanging with one another Represent the interaction of buyers and sellers for goods and services Markets set the prices we pay and receive. Automobile market Health care market Labor market Stock market Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

4 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
The Law of Demand Demand A schedule showing how much of a good or service people will purchase at any price during a specified time period, other things being constant Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

5 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
The Law of Demand Law of Demand Quantity demanded is inversely related to price, holding other factors constant. Price # Qd $ Price $ Qd # Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

6 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
The Law of Demand What are we holding constant? Income Tastes and preferences Price of other goods Many other factors Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

15 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Shifts in Demand Scenario Imagine the federal government gives every student registered in a college, university, or technical school in the United States a notebook computer. If some factor other than price changes, we can show its effect by moving the entire demand curve, shifting the curve left or right. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

16 A Shift in the Demand Curve
Suppose universities prohibit the use of notebook computers Suppose the federal government gives every student a notebook computer Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

17 Determinants of Demand
Ceteris-Paribus Conditions Determinants of the relationship between price and quantity that are unchanged along a curve Changes in these factors cause a curve to shift Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

18 Normal and Inferior Goods
Normal Goods Goods for which demand rises as income rises, most goods are normal goods Inferior Goods Goods for which demand falls as income rises Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

19 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Shifts in Demand Determinants of demand Income Tastes and preferences The prices of related goods Substitutes Complements Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

20 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Shifts in Demand Substitutes Two goods are substitutes when a change in the price of one causes a shift in demand for the other in the same direction as the price change. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

21 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Shifts in Demand Complements Two goods are complements when a change in the price of one causes an opposite shift in the demand curve for the other. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

30 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Shifts in Demand Changes in demand versus changes in quantity demanded A change in one or more of the non-price determinants (income, tastes, etc.) will lead to a change in demand. This is a shift of the whole curve. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

31 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Shifts in Demand Changes in demand versus changes in quantity demanded A change in a good’s own price leads to a change in quantity demanded. This is a movement along the same curve. ∆D is not the same as ∆Qd. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

32 Movement Along a Given Demand Curve
A change in the price changes the quantity of a good demanded, movement along the curve Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

53 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Shifts in Supply Changes in supply versus changes in quantity supplied A change in one or more of the non-price determinants will lead to a change in supply. This is a shift of the whole curve. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply 73

54 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Shifts in Supply Changes in supply versus changes in quantity supplied A change in a good’s own price leads to a change in quantity supplied. This is a movement along the same curve. ∆S is not the same as ∆Qs. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply 74

55 Putting Demand and Supply Together
Equilibrium (Market Clearing) Price The price that clears the market The price at which quantity demanded equals quantity supplied The price where the demand curve intersects the supply curve Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

58 Putting Demand and Supply Together
Equilibrium The situation when quantity supplied equals quantity demanded at a particular price Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

59 Putting Demand and Supply Together
Shortages The situation when quantity demanded is greater than quantity supplied Qd > Qs Exist at any price below the market clearing price Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

60 Putting Demand and Supply Together
Surpluses The situation when quantity supplied is greater than quantity demanded Qd < Qs Exist at any price above the market clearing price Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

61 Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
Policy Example: Should Shortages in the Ticket Market Be Solved by Scalpers? If you’ve ever tried to get tickets to a big game you know all about “shortages.” Since the quantity of tickets is fixed, the price can go pretty high. Enter the scalper. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

62 Shortages of Super Bowl Tickets
Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

63 Issues and Applications: The Market Clearing Prices of Baseball Cards
Various companies, such as Topps and Upper Deck, print sports trading cards that provide photos and stats on pro athletes. Why are some of the market clearing prices so high? The answer has to do with demand and supply. (A relatively low supply helps explain the relatively high market clearing price.) Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

64 Baseball Cards with the Highest Market Clearing Prices
Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

65 Summary Discussion of Learning Objectives
The law of demand says that prices and quantity demanded are inversely related. At a higher price people buy less, at a lower price people buy more. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

66 Summary Discussion of Learning Objectives
A change in quantity demanded versus a change in demand A change in quantity demanded is a movement along the same demand curve. A change in demand is a shift of the whole demand curve. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

67 Summary Discussion of Learning Objectives
The law of supply states that price and quantity supplied are directly related. At a high price firms offer more; at a low price firms offer less. A change in quantity supplied versus a change in supply A change in quantity supplied is a movement along the same supply curve. A change in supply is a shift of the whole supply curve. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply

68 Summary Discussion of Learning Objectives
Determining market price and equilibrium quantity The demand and supply curves intersect at the market clearing, or equilibrium point. Surpluses exist if the price of the good is greater than the market price. Shortages exist when the price of a good is below the market price. Chapter 3 - Demand and Supply
