  2. Supply and demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand

    If the supply curve starts at S 2, and shifts leftward to S 1, the equilibrium price will increase and the equilibrium quantity will decrease as consumers move along the demand curve to the new higher price and associated lower quantity demanded. The quantity demanded at each price is the same as before the supply shift, reflecting the fact ...

  3. Supply (economics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_(economics)

    Number of suppliers: The market supply curve is the horizontal summation of the individual supply curves. As more firms enter the industry, the market supply curve will shift out, driving down prices. Government policies and regulations: Government intervention can have a significant effect on supply. [7]

  4. Supply shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_shock

    Negative supply shock. The initial position is at point A, producing output quantity Y 1 at price level P 1. When there is a supply shock, this has an adverse effect on aggregate supply: the supply curve shifts left (from AS 1 to AS 2), while the demand curve stays in the same position.

  5. Law of supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_supply

    A supply is a good or service that producers are willing to provide. The law of supply determines the quantity of supply at a given price. [5]The law of supply and demand states that, for a given product, if the quantity demanded exceeds the quantity supplied, then the price increases, which decreases the demand (law of demand) and increases the supply (law of supply)—and vice versa—until ...

  6. Effect of taxes and subsidies on price - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effect_of_taxes_and...

    The supply curve shifts upward but the new supply curve is not parallel to the original one. Second, the tax raises the production cost as with the specific tax but the amount of tax varies with price level. The upward shift of the supply curve is accompanied by a pivot upwards and to the left of the original supply curve.

  7. Economic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_equilibrium

    At any price above P supply exceeds demand, while at a price below P the quantity demanded exceeds that supplied. In other words, prices where demand and supply are out of balance are termed points of disequilibrium, creating shortages and oversupply. Changes in the conditions of demand or supply will shift the demand or supply curves.

  8. Induced demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induced_demand

    When the supply curve shifts from S1 to S2, the equilibrium price decreases from P1 to P2, and an increase in quantity demanded from Q1 to Q2 is induced.. In economics, induced demand – related to latent demand and generated demand [1] – is the phenomenon whereby an increase in supply results in a decline in price and an increase in consumption.

  9. AD–AS model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AD–AS_model

    Changes in either of these variables as well as a number of possible supply shocks will shift the dynamic aggregate supply curve. [5]: 409 [12] The long-run aggregate supply curve is affected by events that affect the potential output of the economy. These include the following shocks which would shift the long-run aggregate supply curve to the ...
