1 Demand Amount of goods or services a person is willing and able to buy Must not only want the good, but also be able to pay for it The law of demand states that consumers buy more of a good when its price decreases and less when its price increases.

4 Supply The sellers side of the equation Supply—the amount producers are willing to offer at various prices at a given time Quantity supplied—the amount producers are willing to offer at each particular price According to the law of supply, suppliers will offer more of a good at a higher price. Price As price increases… Supply Quantity supplied increases Price As price falls… Supply Quantity supplied falls
