The everyday usage of the word unemployed is usually broad enough to include disguised unemployment, and may include people with no intention of finding a job. For example, a dictionary definition is: "not engaged in a gainful occupation", [7] which is broader than the economic definition.
A conditional factor demand function expresses the conditional factor demand as a function of the output level and the input costs. [1] The conditional portion of this phrase refers to the fact that this function is conditional on a given level of output, so output is one argument of the function.
In keeping with modern convention, a demand curve would instead be drawn with price on the x-axis and demand on the y-axis, because price is the independent variable and demand is the variable that is dependent upon price. Just as the supply curve parallels the marginal cost curve, the demand curve parallels marginal utility, measured in ...
Other stores (such as dollar stores, pound stores, euro stores, 100-yen stores, and so forth) only have a single price point ($1, £1, €1, ¥100), but in some cases, that price may purchase more than one of some very small items. [7] The term "price point" is also used to describe non-linear areas of the price curve.
At any price above P supply exceeds demand, while at a price below P the quantity demanded exceeds that supplied. In other words, prices where demand and supply are out of balance are termed points of disequilibrium, creating shortages and oversupply. Changes in the conditions of demand or supply will shift the demand or supply curves.
The law of demand is represented by a graph called the demand curve, with quantity demanded on the x-axis and price on the y-axis. Demand curves are downward sloping by definition of the law of demand.
British mobile phone company O2 has unveiled an “AI granny” called Daisy who is helping combat fraud by wasting scammers’ time with long phone calls.
On the other hand, any price below 10 is not an equilibrium price because there is an excess demand (both Alice and Bob want the car at that price), and any price above 20 is not an equilibrium price because there is an excess supply (neither Alice nor Bob want the car at that price). This example is a special case of a double auction.
