2 Unit 2: Demand, Supply, and Consumer Choice

3 What is the Law of Demand?
DEMAND DEFINED What is Demand? Demand is the different quantities of goods that consumers are willing and able to buy at different prices. (Ex: You are able to purchase diapers, but if you aren’t willing to buy then there is NO demand) What is the Law of Demand? There is an INVERSE relationship between price and quantity demanded

4 What is the Law of Demand?
When the price goes up, quantity demanded goes down. When the price goes down, quantity demanded goes up.

7 Why does the Law of Demand occur?
The law of demand is the result of three separate behavior patterns that overlap: The Substitution effect The Income effect The Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility We will define and explain each…

8 Why does the Law of Demand occur?
1. The Substitution Effect If the price goes up for a product, consumer buy less of that product and more of another substitute product (and vice versa) 2. The Income Effect If the price goes down for a product, the purchasing power increases for consumers -allowing them to purchase more. Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

9 Why does the Law of Demand occur?
3. Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility Utility = Satisfaction We buy goods because we get utility from them The law of diminishing marginal utility states that as you consume anything, the additional satisfaction that you will receive will eventually start to decrease In other words, the more you buy of ANY GOOD the less satisfaction you get from each new unit consumed. Discussion Questions: What does this have to do with the Law of Demand? How does this effect the pricing of businesses? Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

10 Can you see the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility in Disneyland’s pricing strategy?

12 Graphing Demand Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

13 Let’s draw a new demand curve for milk…
The Demand Curve A demand curve is a graphical representation of a demand schedule. The demand curve is downward sloping showing the inverse relationship between price (on the y-axis) and quantity demanded (on the x-axis) When reading a demand curve, assume all outside factors, such as income, are held constant. (This is called ceteris paribus) Let’s draw a new demand curve for milk… Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

17 Demand Review What are the two key aspects of the definition of demand? What is the Law of Demand? Give an example of the substitution effect Give an example of the income effect Give an example of the law of diminishing marginal utility Explain how the law of diminishing marginal utility causes the law of demand How do you determine the MARKET demand for a particular good? (from reading) Name 10 fast food places Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

18 This is a change in demand, not a change in quantity demanded
Shifts in Demand Ceteris paribus-“all other things held constant.” When the ceteris paribus assumption is dropped, movement no longer occurs along the demand curve. Rather, the entire demand curve shifts. A shift means that at the same prices, more people are willing and able to purchase that good. This is a change in demand, not a change in quantity demanded PRICE DOESN’T SHIFT THE CURVE Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

19 Change in Demand What if milk makes you smarter? Demand Schedule

27 The demand stays the same
Change in Demand Demand Schedule Price of Milk What happens to the demand for milk if the price of milk goes up? $5 4 3 2 1 Price Quantity Demanded $5 10 $4 20 $3 30 $2 50 $1 80 NOTHING! The demand stays the same Demand Q Quantity of Milk 27

28 Change in Qd vs. Change in Demand
There are two ways to increase quantity from 10 to 20 Price of Milk P A to B is a change in quantity demand (due to a change in price) A to C is a change in demand (shift in the curve) A C $3 $2 B D2 D1 Q Milk Quantity of Milk

29 What Causes a Shift in Demand?
5 Shifters (Determinates) of Demand: Tastes and Preferences Number of Consumers Price of Related Goods Income Future Expectations Changes in PRICE don’t shift the curve. It only causes movement along the curve. Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

30 Tastes and Preferences
People’s preferences affect how much of a good they buy. A change in favor of a good moves the curve to the right A change NOT in favor of the good moves the curve to the left. Marketing - Nike vs. LA Gear

31 Tastes and Preferences Cont’d
New Information Kale vs. Aspartame Y2K , Vaccinations (Penn & Teller): -Fads = no science to this one (Yoyo’s, fidget spinners, etc..) *Can you think of one?

32 Number of Consumers An increase in the number of buyers in a market area results in higher demand. Baby boom after WWII in creased demand for baby diapers. A decrease in the number of buyers in a market area results in lower demand.

33 Income Change in consumer income can cause a change in demand.
When income goes up, you can afford to buy more! *For normal goods = direct relationship between income and demand = if income goes up demand goes up or if income goes down demand goes down. *For inferior goods the relationship is opposite *Can you think of an inferior good? Ex. Generic goods (Kroger’s, Kirkland, Safeway Select) *Did anyone see Super Bowl commercials for these brands?

34 Income The incomes of consumer change the demand, but how depends on the type of good. Normal Goods Ex: Luxury cars, Sea Food, jewelry, homes As income increases, demand increases As income falls, demand falls 2. Inferior Goods Ex: Top Ramen, used cars, used clothes As income increases, demand falls As income falls, demand increases Spam-Inferior Yachts- Normal Off Brand Cereal-Inferior McDonald’s-Inferior Toilet Paper- Probably no connection to income (The point-some products are very reliant on income and others are not) Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

35 Income Change in consumer income can cause a change in demand.
When income goes up, you can afford to buy more! *For normal goods = direct relationship between income and demand = if income goes up demand goes up or if income goes down demand goes down. *For inferior goods the relationship is opposite *Can you think of an inferior good? Ex. Generic goods (Kroger’s, Kirkland, Safeway Select)

36 Future Expectations A newly formed expectation of higher future prices may cause consumers to buy now in order to “beat” the anticipated price rises; thus, increasing current demand. EX: freezing weather destroys much of Florida’s cirrus crop, consumers may reason that he price of orange juice will rise. Y2K (explains irrational behavior so we don’t violate one of our laws = rational self interest) -People expected the world to end so demand for bottled water, batteries and canned food went through the roof

37 Prices of Related Goods
The demand curve for one good can be affected by a change in the price of ANOTHER related good. Substitutes are goods used in place of one another. Ex: If price of Pepsi falls, demand for coke will… If the price of one increases, the demand for the other will increase (or vice versa) 2. Complements are two goods that are bought and used together. Ex: If price of hot dogs falls, demand for hot dog buns will... If the price of one increase, the demand for the other will fall. (or vice versa) Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

51 Practice Identify the determinant (shifter) then decide if demand will increase or decrease Shifter Increase or Decrease Left or Right 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Copyright ACDC Leadership 2015

52 Hamburgers (a normal good)
Practice Identify the determinant (shifter) then decide if demand will increase or decrease Hamburgers (a normal good) Population boom Incomes fall due to recession Price of tacos, a substitute, decreases Price increases to $5 for hamburgers New health craze- “No ground beef” Hamburger restaurants announce that they will significantly increase prices NEXT month Price of fries, a complement, increases Restaurants lower price of burgers to $.50 Number of consumers, increase. Income, decrease. Price of Related Goods (Substitute), decrease. Price doesn’t shift curve, no change. Tastes and preferences, decrease. Expectations, increase. Price of Related Goods (Complements), decrease. 52 52
