4.1 Understanding Demand
• Demand: the desire to own something and the
ability to pay for it
• $Law of demand: when a good’s price is lower,
people will buy more of it. Higher = people buy
less
Example: if pizza is a dollar, people buy more. If
pizza is ten dollars, people will buy less.
• $Supply and Demand of goods determines the
price and quantity produced of most goods.

• Substitution effect: when people react to an increase in price by
consuming less of that good and more of other goods.
• Example: pizza got more expensive, so I ate beans & tortillas
instead. Pizza’s price going up resulted in my buying more beans &
tortillas.
• Income effect: the change in consumption resulting from a change
in real income.
• Example: John buys two donuts every morning for $1 (50 cents
each). One day the price goes up to $1 each. Now John just buys
one. The demand for donuts goes down.
