  2. Economic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_equilibrium

    In most simple microeconomic stories of supply and demand a static equilibrium is observed in a market; however, economic equilibrium can be also dynamic. Equilibrium may also be economy-wide or general, as opposed to the partial equilibrium of a single market. Equilibrium can change if there is a change in demand or supply conditions.

  3. Bertrand competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand_competition

    This lack of equilibrium arises from the firms competing in a market with substitute goods, where consumers favor the cheaper product due to identical preferences. Additionally, equilibrium is not achieved when firms set different prices; the higher-priced firm earns nothing, prompting it to lower prices to undercut the competitor.

  4. Supply and demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand

    In the diagram, this raises the equilibrium price from P 1 to the higher P 2. This raises the equilibrium quantity from Q 1 to the higher Q 2. (A movement along the curve is described as a "change in the quantity demanded" to distinguish it from a "change in demand", that is, a shift of the curve.)

  5. Competitive equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Competitive_equilibrium

    A competitive equilibrium (CE) consists of two elements: A price function . It takes as argument a vector representing a bundle of commodities, and returns a positive real number that represents its price. Usually the price function is linear - it is represented as a vector of prices, a price for each commodity type.

  6. Comparative statics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparative_statics

    This means that the equilibrium price depends positively on the demand intercept if g – b > 0, but depends negatively on it if g – b < 0. Which of these possibilities is relevant? In fact, starting from an initial static equilibrium and then changing a, the new equilibrium is relevant only if the market actually goes to that new equilibrium ...

  7. Market equilibrium computation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_equilibrium_computation

    Market equilibrium computation is interesting due to the fact that a competitive equilibrium is always Pareto efficient. The special case of a Fisher market, in which all buyers have equal incomes, is particularly interesting, since in this setting a competitive equilibrium is also envy-free. Therefore, market equilibrium computation is a way ...

  8. IS–LM model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IS–LM_model

    The money market equilibrium diagram. The LM curve shows the combinations of interest rates and levels of real income for which the money market is in equilibrium. It shows where money demand equals money supply. For the LM curve, the independent variable is income and the dependent variable is the interest rate.

  9. Edgeworth box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edgeworth_box

    The conceptual framework of equilibrium in a market economy was developed by Léon Walras [7] and further extended by Vilfredo Pareto. [8] It was examined with close attention to generality and rigour by twentieth century mathematical economists including Abraham Wald, [9] Paul Samuelson, [10] Kenneth Arrow and Gérard Debreu. [11]
