Prices of Related GoodsSubstitutes & Complements
When a fall in the price of one good reduces the demand for another good, the two goods are called substitutes.
When a fall in the price of one good increases the demand for another good, the two goods are called complements.
Show graphically and explain what will happen to the demand for gasoline
when:
The price of air travel increases. Automobile prices fall. Incomes rise. Highway tolls rise. The price of gasoline rises.
Quantity supplied is the quantity of a good a seller is (sellers are) willing and
able to make available in the market over a given period of time.
Quantity supplied refers to a particular number of units.
The quantity supplied will depend upon: the good’s own price prices of inputs used in producing the good technology prices of other goods the seller could supply expectations and other factors
Supply is the relationship between the price of a good or service and the quantity supplied, ceteris paribus.
The law of supply states that there is a direct (positive) relationship between price and quantity supplied.

Change in Supply
A shift in the supply curve, either to the left or right.

Factors that can cause a change in supply:
Changes in input prices. Changes in technology. Changes in prices of other goods that the seller
could supply. Changes in expectation and other factors.
How would the supply of personal computers be affected by:
A decline in the prices of a computer component. A faster method for assembling computers is
developed. Dell Corporation goes out of business. The price of personal computers declines.
Equilibrium Equilibrium is the state of balance between
opposing forces. In equilibrium, the system is in a state of rest
in that there is no tendency for change. In economics, there is an equilibrium when
economic forces are in balance so that economic variables have no tendency to change.
