If the prices have a little effect on the quantity of a product demanded the product is said to have?
inelastic demand
What is theory of demand in economics?
The theory of demand states that the relation between price and quantity demanded is inversely proportional i.e. if prices go up, quantity demanded falls if prices go down, quantity demanded increases
How does the income effect explain the change in quantity demanded that takes place when the price goes down?
the income effect is the increase in real income you get from a drop in prices, the real income increases because you can buy more goods with the same amount of income. This is different from the substitution effect which shows this effect by you buying more of the good because it is relatively cheaper than another good, so you are substituting the expensive good in favor of the cheaper one.
What does increase in demand mean?
the quantity demanded at each price in a set of prices is greater
What happends when quantity supplied is less than quantity demanded?
Generally, prices will fall and only rise again when demand increases.

When equilibrium demanded is greater than quantity the market prices will what?
rise
Why do people buy more of something at lower prices and less at higher prices?
the law of demand. an inverse relationship between the quantity demanded and the price of the product (the lower the price the higher the quantity demanded).
What does in demand mean?
the quantity demanded at each price in a set of prices is greater
What does increase in demand mean?
the quantity demanded at each price in a set of prices is greater
What happends when quantity supplied is less than quantity demanded?
Generally, prices will fall and only rise again when demand increases.
What is demand curve?
It is a graphical representation of a demand schedule showing the quantity demanded at different prices.
Difference between law of demand and price elasticity of demand?
The law of demand states that as prices rise over a period of time, the quantity demanded wil fall.This is made up of two effects: The Income effect and the Substitution effect.The income effect states that as prices rise, the purchasing power/ real income of consumers fall.The substitution effect states that as the price of one good rises, consumers switch to buying cheaper alternatives.The price elasticity of demand is a measure of the responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in price. This indicates, to a certain extent, whether consumer are dependant on that good or not. If the PED is inelastic, people are dependant on that good: they are relatively unresponsive to a change in price. e.g. Petrol. If demand is elastic, there are alternatives readily available in the market. e.g. Cars.
When prices decline and quantity demanded goes up do quantity supplied go down?
When price goes up, Quantity supplied goes up with it, vise versa.
