2.  Supply- the amount made or offered for sale at given prices  Does not follow the logic of survival, suppliers think more like insatiable creatures, there is no such thing as enough

3.  Supply  schedule of quantities offered for sale at all possible prices in the market  Supply = seller's behavior; no consumers involved!!!  Supply Schedule  chart showing quantities for sale at every price (model of seller's behavior)

4.  At a given point in time,  The lower the price, the smaller the quantity supplied;  The higher the price the larger the quantity supplied.  This is a DIRECT relationship. PriceQuantity Supplied $550 $10100 $15150 $20200 $25250

5.  Plot your graph in your notes!

6. Price $ Quantity Bought and Sold (000s) Supply $10 100 $20 200

7.  Change in Quantity Supplied- when the PRICE of a item changes more or less will be supplied  Move ALONG the curve Price $ Quantity Supply $10 100 $20 200

8.  Many factors effect supply, when they change so does the supply of the product.

9. 1. Cost of inputs- supplies cost more = can’t afford to make more 2. Productivity- how hard are the workers working 3. Technology- is it easier/ cheaper to make a product 4. Taxes and subsidies- $ paid to gov’t = less money to make a product 5. Expectations – How producers feel about the future of a product 6. Government Regulations – New laws can affect cost of productions 7. Number of Sellers – more sellers = more supply, fewer sellers = less supply

10.  Size of market Technology Other govenment regulation Resource cost Expectation Subsidies

11. The Supply Curve Price Quantity Supply 1 $10 400 S2 100 S3 900

12. Size of Market (Number of Producers) If more producers enter a market, the supply will increase.

13. Technology An improvement in technology increases supply. Examples:

15. "I will build a motor car for the great multitude."

16. After Ford opened his new Model T plant in 1913, he produced one Model T every 93 minutes, a remarkable reduction from the 728 minutes per car that was previously required. By the time the last Model T was built in 1927, the company was producing an automobile every 24 seconds. In part because of this efficiency, the Model T's price dropped from its original 1908 cost of nearly $1,000 to under $300 in 1927.

17. Other Government Regulations Excise Tax Regulation

18. Regulations Government intervention in a market through indirect means. –Safety Regulations –Environmental Laws

19. Excise Tax Two major uses: 1.To discourage the use of a good 2.To help maintain competition in domestic industries

20. Prices of Resources An increase in resource prices decreases supply. Examples: What would the effect of a frost be on the orange juice market?

21. Why do companies outsource?

24. Producer Expectations Changes in producers' expectations about the future can cause a change in the current supply of products.

25. Subsidy Government payment to producers to support the market.
