... Equilibrium price is the price at which the quantity demanded of a good equals the quantity supplied. For example, if, at $40, the quantity supplied of good X is 100 units, and quantity demanded of good X is also 100 units, then $40 is the equilibrium price. Equilibrium quantity is the quantity that ...
