THE GREAT DEPRESSION  Date:  Definition: a period of economic depression in the United States and the rest of the world  Less production  Massive unemployment  Poverty and starvation  Significance  Huge cost to human well-being  Transformed the role of the US federal government

AND NOW FOR ECONOMICS 101

KEY TERMS TO KNOW AND LOVE  Supply: the amount of a good or service that sellers are willing to sell  Demand: the amount of a good or service that buyers are willing to buy  Price: the amount that a buyer pays a seller for a particular good or service

SIMULATION 1: SUPPLY AND PRICE  Buyers: your job is to buy pencils at auction  We’re going to vary the amount of pencils in the economy  Round 1: one pencil  Round 2: three pencils  Round 3: twenty pencils  What happened to the price as the supply increased?

SIMULATION 2: DEMAND AND PRICE  Buyers: your job is to buy pencils at auction  We’re going to vary the number of people who are interested in buying pencils  Round 1: anyone caught with a golf pencil earns an automatic Saturday detention  Round 2: you have to take a lot of notes this week; they can be in pencil or pen  Round 3: you are now required to have a golf pencil every day in history class  What happened to the price as the demand increased?

IN YOUR NOTEBOOK: WHO DETERMINED PRICES IN THESE SIMULATIONS?

THREE REALLY BASIC RULES OF ECONOMICS  Demand is directly proportional to price – the more people want something, the more it will cost.  Supply is inversely proportional to price – the more of something is available, the less it will cost.  Individuals’ decisions, taken together, affect the economy – supply, demand, and prices are all the result of different individual consumers and producers, coordinated through the market.
