  2. Economic graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_graph

    A common and specific example is the supply-and-demand graph shown at right. This graph shows supply and demand as opposing curves, and the intersection between those curves determines the equilibrium price. An alteration of either supply or demand is shown by displacing the curve to either the left (a decrease in quantity demanded or supplied ...

  3. Cost-of-production theory of value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost-of-production_theory...

    A marginal tax on the sellers of a good will shift the supply curve to the left until the vertical distance between the two supply curves is equal to the per unit tax; other things remaining equal, this will increase the price paid by the consumers (which is equal to the new market price) and decrease the price received by the sellers. Marginal ...

  4. Comparative statics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparative_statics

    where is the quantity demanded, is the quantity supplied, P is the price, a and c are intercept parameters determined by exogenous influences on demand and supply respectively, b < 0 is the reciprocal of the slope of the demand curve, and g is the reciprocal of the slope of the supply curve; g > 0 if the supply curve is upward sloped, g = 0 if ...

  5. Phillips curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phillips_curve

    The Phillips curve equation can be derived from the (short-run) Lucas aggregate supply function. The Lucas approach is very different from that of the traditional view. Instead of starting with empirical data, he started with a classical economic model following very simple economic principles. Start with the aggregate supply function:

  6. Supply (economics) - Wikipedia

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

    Supply is often plotted graphically as a supply curve, with the price per unit on the vertical axis and quantity supplied as a function of price on the horizontal axis. This reversal of the usual position of the dependent variable and the independent variable is an unfortunate but standard convention.

  7. Supply and demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand

    Supply chain as connected supply and demand curves. In microeconomics, supply and demand is an economic model of price determination in a market.It postulates that, holding all else equal, the unit price for a particular good or other traded item in a perfectly competitive market, will vary until it settles at the market-clearing price, where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied ...

  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. Demand curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_curve

    When a non-price determinant of demand changes, the curve shifts. These "other variables" are part of the demand function. They are "merely lumped into intercept term of a simple linear demand function." [14] Thus a change in a non-price determinant of demand is reflected in a change in the x-intercept causing the curve to shift along the x ...
