EQUILIBRIUM MARKET DEMAND This is the total demand of all individual consumers in a market at a given time for all prices. It is found by horizontally adding all individual demand schedules or curves P 2 + 1 2 P 2 2 = 1 D 1 P Q D 1 2 Q D 1 2 4 Q EXAMPLE Emma’s demand for pies weekly Geoff’s demand for pies weekly Rob’s demand for pies weekly Market Demand for pies weekly Price Quantity demanded Price Quantity demanded Price Quantity demanded Price 10 2 10 5 10 4 10 8 3 8 8 8 6 8 6 4 6 10 6 9 6 4 5 4 11 4 10 4 Quantity demanded Weekly Market Demand Curve for Pies Price($) MD Quantity Demanded (Each) MARKET SUPPLY This is the total Supply of all individual producers in a market at a given time for all prices.

Called equilibrium price At this price quantity supplied exactly equals quantity demanded. So everyone prepared to buy at that price (consumers) gets what they want and everyone prepared to sell at that price (producers) do so. At this price the market is stable and there is no pressure for the price to change. MARKET EQUILIBRIUM Market equilibrium occurs at the price where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied. P s This occurs at Pe. Pe At this price both quantity demanded and quantity supplied is Qe. d Q Qe Equilibrium is a state of balance. There are no shortages or surpluses. WORKSHEET – MARKET EQUILIBRIUM DISEQUILIBRIUM • Disequilibrium occurs if the existing price is either above or below equilibrium price • If the price is above equilibrium price, quantity supplied will be higher than quantity demanded and results in a surplus. • Surplus (Excess supply) = QS >QD • If the price is below equilibrium, quantity demanded will be higher than quantity supplied and results in a shortage. • Shortage (Excess demand) = QD>QS DISEQUILIBRIUM Shortage Surplus DO – NOW Complete the worksheet on market equilibrium. Make sure you make your axis even and label as the question asks.

The producer will want to sell their excess stock so will react by dropping the price of their product 2. Consumers will react to lower prices by buying more as the goods become more affordable (Law of demand) 3. As prices fall producers decrease their supply as the good becomes less profitable (Law of supply) 4. QD increases and QS decreases until equilibrium is restored at a price of $10 and quantity of 500. SHORTAGE (EXCESS DEMAND ) P QS QD Shortage At the current price of $5 quantity demanded is 650 and Quantity supplied is 300 A shortage of 350 exists (650-300) MARKET FORCES RESTORING EQUILIBRIUM EXCESS DEMAND (SHORTAGE ) 1. The Consumers want to buy more of the goods so they are prepared to pay higher prices. Consumers bid the price up as they don’t want to miss out. 2. Producers will react to higher prices by supplying more as the good becomes more profitable (Law of Supply) 3. As prices increase, consumers demand falls as the good becomes less affordable (Law of demand ) 4. QS increases and QD decreases until equilibrium is regained where QD=QS (At a price of $10 and quantity of 500) WORKBOOK PAGES 131 - 134 MARKET REACTIONS TO DISEQUILIBRIUM When the market is not in equilibrium we call this a disequilibrium. When the market is in a disequilibrium, there will be pressure on the market. These pressures are from the needs of consumers for goods and services (demand) and the need of producers to sell their goods and services (supply) These pressures are known as market forces or ‘the invisible hand’. CHANGES TO EQUILIBRIUM A change to any of the variables that cause a shift in either demand or supply will cause a change in the equilibrium price and quantity. Factors that shift the demand curve • Tastes and preferences • Income • Complements • Substitutes Factors that shift the supply curve • Price of related good • Technology • Productivity • Cost of Production EXAMPLE – CHANGES IN DEMAND An increase in demand caused by an increase in consumer incomes Price ($) At the new equilibrium prices have increased and quantity has increased s P1 Pe d d' Q Qe Q1 EXAMPLE – CHANGES IN SUPPLY A decrease in supply caused by cost of production increasing s’ s Price ($) Pe’ Pe d Qe’ Qe At the new equilibrium price has increased and quantity has decreased
