ELM #9 Market Equilibrium
... A surplus puts downward pressure on price Imagine the wage for babysitting was $6 per hour. We can see from the table and graph below that more hours of babysitting will now be provided (120 hours, where the new $6 hourly wage intersects the supply curve). At this wage, parents are not willing to hi ...

chapter overview
... quantity is not the end of the process; it is only the beginning. The market model is powerful because it can be used to forecast what the likely outcome will be if one of the determinants of demand or of supply is changed. Do examples that use actual numbers on the axes of the graphs. Most students ...

Oligopoly Games under Asymmetric Costs and an Application to Energy Production

When one considers an asymmetric cost structure, the issue of the number of firms who are active in an equilibrium becomes crucially important. This fact is often overlooked or as ...
