Demand
Why are newspapers sold in vending machines that
allow you to take more than one copy?
How much do you eat when you can eat all you want?
What cures spring fever?
What economic principle is behind the saying, “Been
there, done that”?
Why do higher cigarette taxes cut smoking by
teenagers more than by other age groups?

Demand
Demand indicates how much of a
product consumers are both willing and
able to buy at each possible price during
a given period, other things remaining
constant.
![Page 6: Chapter 4 Demand - PC\|MACimages.pcmac.org/SiSFiles/Schools/AL/MadisonCity/BJHigh/Uploads... · 1 CONTEMPORARY ECONOMICS: LESSON 4.1 © SOUTH-WESTERN CHAPTER 4 Demand 4.1 The Demand](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022040421/5e0a6eae1d8cdc4b6a641ab8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Law of Demand
The law of demand says that quantity
demanded varies inversely with price,
other things constant. Thus, the higher
the price, the smaller the quantity
demanded.

Changes That Can
Shift the Demand Curve
Changes in consumer income
Normal goods
Inferior goods
Changes in the prices of related goods
Substitutes
Complements
Changes in the size or composition of the population
Changes in consumer expectations
Changes in consumer tastes

© SOUTH-WESTERNCONTEMPORARY ECONOMICS: LESSON 4.324
Movement Along a Demand Curve
Versus a Shift of the Curve
A change in price, other things constant,
causes a movement along a demand
curve, changing the quantity demanded.
A change in one of the determinants of
demand other than price causes a shift of
a demand curve, changing demand.
