Demand & Supply Curves Inverse Relationship Positive Relationship

Change in Quantity Demanded The Law of Demand. Inverse Relationship between Price and Quantity Demanded Change in Quantity Demanded due to a change in Price Demand is the whole curve. Quantity Demanded is one point on the curve at a particular Price.

Change in Demand due to one of the Determinants of Demand (absent of a price change) Demand is the whole curve. Quantity Demanded is one point on the curve at a particular Price.

Change in Quantity Supplied The Law of Supply-Positive Relationship between Price and Quantity Supplied Change in Quantity Supplied due to a change in Price Supply is the whole curve. Quantity Supplied is one point of production on the curve at a particular Price.

Change in Supply due to one of the Determinants of Supply (absent of a price change) Supply is the whole curve. Quantity Supplied is one point of production on the curve at a particular Price.

Equilibrium Pe= Price Equilibrium or Market Clearing Price Qe= Quantity Equilibrium or Where Quantity Supplied is Equal to Quantity Demanded (Qs=Qd)

Increase in Demand D 1 is the new Demand Curve. Increase in Demand due to one of the determinants. New Equilibrium- Price increases (P 1), Quantity increases (Q 1).

Decrease in Demand D 1 is the new Demand Curve. Decrease in Demand due to one of the determinants. New Equilibrium- Price decrease (P 1), Quantity decreases (Q 1).

Decrease in Supply D 1 is the new Demand Curve. Decrease in Demand due to one of the determinants. New Equilibrium- Price decrease (P 1), Quantity decreases (Q 1).

Price Floor= Surplus Disequilibrium Pf- Central Authority sets a Price Floor above the Equilibrium Price (Pe). Quantity Supplied (Qs) is greater than Quantity Demanded (Qd) causing a surplus. To Calculate a Surplus: Quantity Supplied minus Quantity Demanded

Nonbinding Price Floor (Pf) set below Price Equilibrium (Pe). Does not prohibit price from reaching Pe.

Price Ceiling= Shortage Disequilibrium Pc- Central Authority sets a Price Ceiling below the Equilibrium Price (Pe). Quantity Supplied (Qs) is less than Quantity Demanded (Qd) causing a shortage. To Calculate a Shortage: Quantity Supplied minus Quantity Demanded

Nonbinding Price Ceiling Price Floor (Pf) set below Price Equilibrium (Pe). Does not prohibit price from reaching Pe.
