WHAT IS DEMAND?
Demand is defined as various quantities of a product
which a consumer purchases at different price, at a given time, other things being equal.
In economics, demand for a commodity or a service signifies the following -
• Desire for a commodity or a service• Willingness to purchase it• Ability to pay for it.
5
LAW OF DEMAND
Statement of the law -“ Higher the price, lower the quantity demanded, lower
the price higher the quantity demanded, other things remaining the same.”
• The law states inverse relationship between price of a commodity & its quantity demanded.
• The law holds under the condition - ‘other things remain constant’
( ‘Other things’ include ‘determinants other than own price’ )

TYPES OF DEMAND
• INDIVIDUAL DEMAND
• MARKET DEMAND

WHAT IS SUPPLY?SUPPLY – Quantity of a commodity offered for sale by the producer at a
given price, in a given time.
STOCK – Total quantity of a commodity available with the producer at a
given time.• Stock is the basis or determinant of supply.• Without stock supply is not possible.
11
LAW OF SUPPLY
Statement of the law - “ Higher the price higher the quantity supplied , lower the price
lower the quantity supplied, other things remaining the same ”.
• There is direct relationship between price of a commodity & its quantity supplied.
• The supply curve slopes upwards from left to right.

EQUILIBRIUM
• MEANING OF EQUILIBRIUM –
State in which forces acting in opposite directions are perfectly in balance, so that there is no tendency to change.
• EQUILIBRIUM PRICE –
The price at which quantity demanded of a commodity is equal to its quantity supplied.

CHANGES IN MARKET CONDITIONS
I. Changes in demand or supply –• Effect of increase or decrease in demand (Demand changes
supply remaining the same)• Effect of increase or decrease in supply (Supply changes
demand remaining the same)
II. Simultaneous Changes in demand & supply -• Demand increases, supply increases• Demand increases, supply decreases• Demand decreases, supply increases• Demand decreases, supply decreases
16
CHANGES IN MARKET PRICESThere are four “laws” of supply and demand.
1. An increase in demand causes an increase in both the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity.

q1
The improvement changes supply, creating an excess supply of corn. Here's the process.
Excess supply
In the new equilibrium price is lower and quantity higher.

CONCLUSION
• Price changes in response to the existence of excess demand or excess supply.
• Changes in demand and changes in supply lead to changes in equilibrium prices and quantities.
