  2. Demand curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_curve

    A demand curve is a graph depicting the inverse demand function, [1] a relationship between the price of a certain commodity (the y -axis) and the quantity of that commodity that is demanded at that price (the x -axis). Demand curves can be used either for the price-quantity relationship for an individual consumer (an individual demand curve ...

  3. Supply and demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand

    If the demand decreases, then the opposite happens: a shift of the curve to the left. If the demand starts at D 2, and decreases to D 1, the equilibrium price will decrease, and the equilibrium quantity will also decrease. The quantity supplied at each price is the same as before the demand shift, reflecting the fact that the supply curve has ...

  4. Duck curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck_curve

    The duck curve is a graph of power production over the course of a day that shows the timing imbalance between peak demand and solar power generation. The graph resembles a sitting duck, and thus the term was created. [2] Used in utility-scale electricity generation, the term was coined in 2012 by the California Independent System Operator. [3] [4]

  5. Law of demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_demand

    Therefore, the intersection of the demand and supply curves provide us with the efficient allocation of goods in an economy. In microeconomics, the law of demand is a fundamental principle which states that there is an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded. In other words, "conditional on all else being equal, as the price of ...

  6. AD–AS model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AD–AS_model

    The AD–AS or aggregate demand–aggregate supply model (also known as the aggregate supply–aggregate demand or AS–AD model) is a widely used macroeconomic model that explains short-run and long-run economic changes through the relationship of aggregate demand (AD) and aggregate supply (AS) in a diagram. It coexists in an older and static ...

  7. Economic graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_graph

    Economic graph. The social science of economics makes extensive use of graphs to better illustrate the economic principles and trends it is attempting to explain. Those graphs have specific qualities that are not often found (or are not often found in such combinations) in other sciences. The supply and demand model describes how prices vary as ...

  8. Engel curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engel_curve

    Engel curve and other demand function models still fail to explain most of the observed variation in individual consumption behavior. [ 2 ] As a result, many scholars acknowledge that influences other than current prices and current total expenditure must be systematically modeled if even the broad pattern of demand is to be explained in a ...

  9. Aggregate demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggregate_demand

    t. e. In economics, aggregate demand (AD) or domestic final demand (DFD) is the total demand for final goods and services in an economy at a given time. [1] It is often called effective demand, though at other times this term is distinguished. This is the demand for the gross domestic product of a country. It specifies the amount of goods and ...
