  2. Effect of taxes and subsidies on price - Wikipedia

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

    Marginal subsidies on production will shift the supply curve to the right until the vertical distance between the two supply curves is equal to the per unit subsidy; when other things remain equal, this will decrease price paid by the consumers (which is equal to the new market price) and increase the price received by the producers.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 ...

  5. Supply-side economics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply-side_economics

    [1] [2] According to supply-side economics theory, consumers will benefit from greater supply of goods and services at lower prices, and employment will increase. [3] Supply-side fiscal policies are designed to increase aggregate supply, as opposed to aggregate demand, thereby expanding output and employment while lowering prices. Such policies ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. Price elasticity of supply - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_elasticity_of_supply

    Relatively inelastic supply: This is when the E s formula gives a result between zero and one, meaning that when there is a change in price, the percentage change in supply is lower than the percentage change in price. For example, if a product costs $1 and then increases to $1.10 the increase in price is 10% and therefore the change in supply ...

  8. Supply (economics) - Wikipedia

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

    Since supply is usually increasing in price, the price elasticity of supply is usually positive. For example, if the PES for a good is 0.67 a 1% rise in price will induce a two-thirds increase in quantity supplied. Significant determinants include: Complexity of production: Much depends on the complexity of the production process. Textile ...

  9. Giffen good - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giffen_good

    Under such a situation, the supply curve will increase with the rise in potatoes’ price, which is consistent with the definition of Giffen good. However, Gerald P. Dwyer and Cotton M. Lindsey challenged this idea in their 1984 article Robert Giffen and the Irish Potato , [ 10 ] [ 11 ] where they showed the contradicting nature of the Giffen ...
