Increases and Decrease in Demand
• Higher demand leads to higher equilibrium price and higher equilibrium quantity supplied
• Lower demand leads to lower equilibrium price and lower equilibrium quantity supplied
![Page 2: Increases and Decrease in Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815ee7550346895dcd933c/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Increases and Decreases in Supply
• Higher supply leads to lower equilibrium price and higher equilibrium quantity demanded
• Lower supply leads to higher equilibrium price and lower equilibrium quantity demanded

Supply and Demand Model PracticeAnswer the following on a separate sheet of paperSuppose we are analyzing the market for hot chocolate.
a) Winter starts and the weather turns sharply colder, consumers prefer hot chocolate. b) The price of cocoa beans, an ingredient in making hot chocolate, decreases. c) The Surgeon General of the United States announces that hot chocolate causes acne. d) Protesting farmers stop producing millions of gallons of milk, causing the price of milk, an
ingredient in hot chocolate to rise.

Price Ceilings
Price Ceiling – government imposed, legal maximum price that can be legally charged for a good/service
New York introduced rent control in the early 1940s as a way to provide affordable housing
Price ceiling causes a shortage in the amount of the product

Scenario: the government places a price ceiling on ice cream cones as a result of complaints and lobbying from the Ice-Cream Eaters of America. The price ceiling is at $2.00 a cone. Graph the following schedule based on the price points and qs/qd.

The government imposes a price ceiling of $2. Because the price ceiling is below the equilibrium price of $3, the market price equals $2. At this price, 125 cones are demanded and only 75 are supplied, so there is a shortage of 50 cones.

The government imposes a price floor of $4, which is above the equilibrium price of $3. Therefore, the market price equals $4. Because 120 cones are supplied at this price and only 80 are demanded, there is a surplus of 40 cones.

1. List an item that you would buy less of if the price increased2. List an item that you would buy more of if the price decreased3. List an item that you would continue to buy, even if the increased

Elasticity Elasticity – measure of the responsiveness of quantity demanded or
quantity supplied to a change in price Price elasticity of demand – measures how consumers will cut back or
increase their quantity demanded for a product when prices rise or fall Measures the extent to which changes in price causes changes in quantity
demanded. Helps determine how much a price change will influence the qd of any given
product
![Page 24: Increases and Decrease in Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815ee7550346895dcd933c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Elastic Demand
Elastic – quantity demanded changes drastically when a price rises or falls
A consumer is very responsive to price changes
![Page 25: Increases and Decrease in Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815ee7550346895dcd933c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Inelastic Demand Inelastic - changes in price cause a
relatively small change in quantity demanded
Consumers continue to purchase regardless of a price change

Determinants of Demand Elasticity1. Availability of Close Substitutes
• Pepsi/Coke, Butter/Margarine
2. Necessities versus Luxuries
• Medicine versus a luxury automobile
3. Definition of the Market
• Food – broad category (inelastic)
• Ice Cream – narrower (more elastic)
• Vanilla Ice Cream – very narrow category (very elastic)
4. Time Horizon
• Longer time horizon – more elastic
• Gas in the short run is inelastic, but over time elastic
![Page 30: Increases and Decrease in Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815ee7550346895dcd933c/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Elastic Supply• Elastic – suppliers can easily increase or decrease their quantity
supplied in the short run
![Page 31: Increases and Decrease in Demand](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081502/56815ee7550346895dcd933c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Inelastic Supply• Inelastic – suppliers have difficulty changing the quantity
supplied

Computing the Price Elasticity of Demand
Price elasticity of demand = Percentage change in quantity demanded Percentage change in price
Value is less than 1, it is considered inelastic. Inelastic – Demand is < 1
Value is greater than one, demand is elastic. Elastic – Demand is > than 1
Value is equal to one, demand is unitary elastic. Unitary Elastic – Demand is = 1
Value is equal to 0, demand is perfectly inelastic. Perfectly Inelastic – Demand is = 0
Value is equal to infinity, demand is perfectly elastic Perfectly Elastic – Demand is = infinity

Elasticity Application 3Scenario: The Apple store in St. John’s Mall made the decision to drop the price of their Ipod Nano from $150 to $125. As a result, the sale of Nano’s increased from 200 a week to 250. - Create a Demand Schedule and Curve based on the above information.

2. Did the price change cause an elastic or inelastic response in the QD for Nano’s? ___________________3. If the firm drops their price by _________%, they will see an increase in sales of __________% 4. To determine if this is a good decision for the firm, calculate the total revenue of each price:- Multiply the first price of the Nano by the first QD – $______ x _______ = ___________________- Multiply the second price of the Nano by the second QD – $ ______ x _______ = __________________5.
