Walras' Elements of Pure Economics provides a succession of models, each taking into account more aspects of a real economy (two commodities, many commodities, production, growth, money). Some think Walras was unsuccessful and that the ...
At each price there is a single corresponding quantity of either good. Due to this, by modeling the good with the changing price as any particular good and the good with the unchanging price as all other goods, the price-consumption curve can be used to construct an individual's demand curve for any particular good.

The price mechanism, part of a market system , functions in various ways to match up buyers and sellers: as an incentive, a signal, and a rationing system ...
The equilibrium price in the market is $5.00 where demand and supply are equal at 12,000 units; If the current market price was $3.00 – there would be excess demand for 8,000 units, creating a shortage. If the current market price was $8.00 – there would be excess supply of 12,000 units.
