  2. Supply and demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_and_demand

    Supply chain as connected supply and demand curves. In microeconomics, supply and demand is an economic model of price determination in a market.It postulates that, holding all else equal, the unit price for a particular good or other traded item in a perfectly competitive market, will vary until it settles at the market-clearing price, where the quantity demanded equals the quantity supplied ...

  3. Economic graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_graph

    The graph depicts an increase (that is, right-shift) in demand from D 1 to D 2 along with the consequent increase in price and quantity required to reach a new equilibrium point on the supply curve (S). A common and specific example is the supply-and-demand graph shown at right. This graph shows supply and demand as opposing curves, and the ...

  4. Supply (economics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply_(economics)

    By convention in the context of supply and demand graphs, economists graph the dependent variable (quantity) on the horizontal axis and the independent variable (price) on the vertical axis. The inverse supply equation is the equation written with the vertical-axis variable isolated on the left side: P = f ( Q ) {\displaystyle P=f(Q)} .

  5. Law of demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_demand

    The demand curve, shown in blue, is sloping downwards from left to right because price and quantity demanded are inversely related. This relationship is contingent on certain conditions remaining constant. The supply curve, shown in orange, intersects with the demand curve at price (Pe) = 80 and quantity (Qe)= 120.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microeconomics

    The graph depicts a right-shift in demand from D 1 to D 2 along with the consequent increase in price and quantity required to reach a new market-clearing equilibrium point on the supply curve (S). The theory of supply and demand usually assumes that markets are perfectly competitive. This implies that there are many buyers and sellers in the ...

  8. Demand curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_curve

    An example of a demand curve shifting. D1 and D2 are alternative positions of the demand curve, S is the supply curve, and P and Q are price and quantity respectively. The shift from D1 to D2 means an increase in demand with consequences for the other variables

  9. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

    Simple graph: Supply and demand curves, simple graphs used in economics to relate supply and demand to price. The graphs can be used together to determine the economic equilibrium (essentially, to solve an equation). Simple graph used for reading values: the bell-shaped normal or Gaussian probability distribution, from which, for example, the ...
