1 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition The Market Forces of Supply and Demand Chapter 4 © 2002 by Nelson, a division of Thomson Canada Limited

2 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Overview  Market and Competition  Demand  Supply  Equilibrium  Price and Resource Allocation

3 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition The Market Forces of Supply and Demand  Supply and Demand are the two words that economists use most often.  Supply and Demand are the forces that make market economies work!  Modern microeconomics is about supply, demand, and market equilibrium.

4 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Markets and Competition The terms supply and demand refer to the behaviour of people......as they interact with one another in markets.

5 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Market: any institution, mechanism, or arrangement which facilitates exchange.  A market is a group of buyers and sellers of a particular good or service. –Buyers determine demand... –Sellers determine supply...

6 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Market Type: A Competitive Market  A Competitive Market is a market: –with many buyers and sellers –that is not controlled by any one person –in which a narrow “range of prices” are established that buyers and sellers act upon

7 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Market Type: Perfect & Others  Perfectly Competitive: –Homogeneous Products –Buyers and Sellers are Price Takers  Monopoly: –One Seller, controls price  Oligopoly: –Few Sellers, not aggressive competition  Monopolistic Competition: –Many Sellers, differentiated products

8 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Quick Quiz!  What is a market?  Identify two characteristics of a perfectly competitive market.  Identify examples of non-competitive markets.

9 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Overview Market and Competition  Demand  Supply  Equilibrium  Price and Resource Allocation

10 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition The Concept of Demand...  Quantity Demanded refers to the amount (quantity) of a good that buyers are willing to purchase at alternative prices for a given period. P Q

11 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Individual Demand Schedule Cathy’s Demand: Ice Cream Cones

12 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Individual Demand Curve Cathy’s Demand: Ice Cream Cones P $ Per Cone Q # Cones Per Day $2.50 $2.00 $1.50 246

13 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Market Demand Schedule  Market demand is the sum of all individual demands at each possible price.  Assume the ice cream market has two buyers as follows: Price Per Cone Cathy Nick Market Demand $0.00 12 + 7 = 19 $0.50 10 + 6 = 16 $1.00 8 + 5 = 13 $1.50 6 + 4 = 10 $2.00 4 + 3 = 7

64 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Overview Market and Competition Demand Supply Equilibrium  Price and Resource Allocation

65 Principles of Microeconomics & Principles of Macroeconomics: Ch. 4 Second Canadian Edition Concluding Thoughts...  Market economies harness the forces of supply and demand...  Supply and Demand together determine the prices of the economy’s different goods and services...  Prices in turn are the signals that guide the allocation of resources.
