(ex. Necessary goods like milk, gas ,etc.)
4. Elastic Demand-Even the slightest price change has a major impact on quantity demanded

-It leads to increased production at a lower cost (ex. Automobiles – automation)

-Store the goods until the price increases
13. What happens to the quantity of supply when the price – increases / decreases? –
-Quantity supplied increases/ Quantity supplied decreases (Direct Relationship)
14. Law of supply-States that producers offer more of a good as its price increase and less as its price falls
15. Law of demand-States that consumers will buy more or a good when its price is lower and less when its
price is higher
16. What happens when the government passes a law setting wages above equilibrium? –
-Businesses employ fewer workers than they would at the equilibrium wage
17. Price ceiling-The maximum price that can legally be charged for a good or service (Ex. Rent

33. Marginal product of labor-The change in output from hiring one additional unit of labor
