Discuss the limitations of demand and supply analysis. State the law of supply and distinguish shifts in supply from movements along a supply curve. Explain how the law of demand and the law of supply interact to bring about equilibrium. 2 Demand The law of demand states that the quantity of a good demanded is inversely related to the good’s price As prices change, people change how much they’re willing to buy In other words, other things equal, Quantity demanded rises as price falls Quantity demanded falls as price rises The law of demand is based on the fact that when prices for a good rise, people substitute away from that good to other goods 3 The Demand Curve A demand curve is the graphic representation of the relationship between price and quantity demanded Demand P Q The demand . | Copyright © 2013 by The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
