  2. Supply and demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand

    This would cause the entire demand curve to shift changing the equilibrium price and quantity. Note in the diagram that the shift of the demand curve, by causing a new equilibrium price to emerge, resulted in movement along the supply curve from the point (Q 1, P 1) to the point (Q 2, P 2). If the demand decreases, then the opposite happens: a ...

  3. Cobweb model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobweb_model

    In words, the convergent case occurs when the demand curve is more elastic than the supply curve, at the equilibrium point. The divergent case occurs when the supply curve is more elastic than the demand curve, at the equilibrium point (see Kaldor, 1934, page 135, propositions (i) and (ii).)

  4. Supply (economics) - Wikipedia

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

    A shift in the supply curve, referred to as a change in supply, occurs only if a non-price determinant of supply changes. [10] For example, if the price of an ingredient used to produce the good, a related good, were to increase, the supply curve would shift left. [11]

  5. Law of demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_demand

    On the one hand, demand refers to the demand curve. Changes in supply are depicted graphically by a shift in the supply curve to the left or right. [1] Changes in the demand curve are usually caused by 5 major factors, namely: number of buyers, consumer income, tastes or preferences, price of related goods and future expectations.

  6. Economic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_equilibrium

    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. This will cause changes in the equilibrium price and quantity in the market. Consider the following demand and supply ...

  7. Elasticity (economics) - Wikipedia

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

    Elasticity in economics provides an understanding of changes in the behavior of the buyers and sellers with price changes. There are two types of elasticity for demand and supply, one is inelastic demand and supply and the other one is elastic demand and supply. [2]

  8. Demand curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_curve

    The shift of a demand curve takes place when there is a change in any non-price determinant of demand, resulting in a new demand curve. [11] Non-price determinants of demand are those things that will cause demand to change even if prices remain the same—in other words, the things whose changes might cause a consumer to buy more or less of a ...

  9. Economic graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_graph

    The supply and demand model describes how prices vary as a result of a balance between product availability and demand. The graph depicts an increase (that is, right-shift) in demand from D 1 to D 2 along with the consequent increase in price and quantity required to reach a new equilibrium point on the supply curve (S).
