Is demand needed in equilibrium?
Yes. Equilibrium is created at the intersection of the Demand curve and Supply Curve. Equilibrium can be shifted if the Demand curve increases or decreases, and the same happens when the Supply curve increases or decreases. Without demand, you would just have a Supply curve.
When minimum wage increases for workers how does this affect the supply curve for a company?
When minimum wage increases for workers this affects the supply curve upwards for the company. This will mean that the cost goes up which pushes the curve to the left.
If marginal revenue product capital increases the demand or supply curve?
Demand.
Why does the supply curve increase or decrease?
The supply and demand curve follows four basic laws :If demand increases (demand curve shifts to the right) and supply remains unchanged, a shortage occurs, leading to a higher equilibrium price.If demand decreases (demand curve shifts to the left) and supply remains unchanged, a surplus occurs, leading to a lower equilibrium price.If demand remains unchanged and supply increases (supply curve shifts to the right), a surplus occurs, leading to a lower equilibrium price.If demand remains unchanged and supply decreases (supply curve shifts to the left), a shortage occurs, leading to a higher equilibrium price.
What is difference between individual supply curve and market supply curve?
The difference between individual supply curve and the market supply curve is tat individual supply curve is like a firm. To be able to get the market supply curve you have to have the individual supply curve.
What happens to the aggregate supply curve as the price level increases?
Firms have more of an incentive to increase output
What happens to price if the demand increases?
The price rise.With respect to classical economics (all things being equal) there are two possible situations which represent price increases:An increase in price due to supply side factors (generally the cost of inputs or the cost of labour) the supply curve increases (moves upwards) and intersects with the demand curve at a higher price. In this case the demand curve is not affected. Only the supply curve has risen.An increase in demand (due to changing market pressures). In this case the demand curve has increased (risen) and now intersect the supply curve at a higher position. In this case the demand curve is higher than it was previously.
How is a market supply curve similar to and different from an individual supply curve?
how is a market supply curve similar to and diffrent from an individual supply curve
What are the forces behind the supply curves?
While changes in price result in movement along the supply curve, changes in other relevant factors cause a shift in supply, that is, a shift of the supply curve to the left or right.Such a shift results in a change in quantity supplied for a given price level. If the change causes an increase in the quantity supplied at each price, the supply curve would shift to the right:Supply Curve ShiftThere are several factors that may cause a shift in a good's supply curve. Some supply-shifting factors include:· Prices of other goods - the supply of one good may decrease if the price of another good increases, causing producers to reallocate resources to produce larger quantities of the more profitable good.· Number of sellers - more sellers result in more supply, shifting the supply curve to the right.· Prices of relevant inputs - if the cost of resources used to produce a good increases, sellers will be less inclined to supply the same quantity at a given price, and the supply curve will shift to the left.· Technology - technological advances that increase production efficiency shift the supply curve to the right.· Expectations - if sellers expect prices to increase, they may decrease the quantity currently supplied at a given price in order to be able to supply more when the price increases, resulting in a supply curve shift to the left.
How are supply schedule and supply curve related?
Supply schedule and supply curve and related in the sense that there exists an important relationship between supply and demand. The greater the supply curve, the greater the supply schedule.
Why does a demand curve downwards from left to right?
A demand curve slopes downward left to right because the relationship between price and demand is negative - as price drops demand rises. The opposite is true for a supply curve where as price rises supply rises - the relationship is positive so the supply curve slopes upward from left to right. Nova net answer- because demand decreases as price increases
Supply curves are positively sloped because?
The Supply Curve has a positive slope because as the selling price of the product increases, the willingness of producers to create that product increases as well. With the greater incentive to make that product, production will rise in direct proportion to how much price increases.
