  2. Economic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_equilibrium

    The equilibrium price in the market is $5.00 where demand and supply are equal at 12,000 units; If the current market price was $3.00 – there would be excess demand ...

  3. General equilibrium theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_equilibrium_theory

    In partial equilibrium analysis, the determination of the price of a good is simplified by just looking at the price of one good, and assuming that the prices of all other goods remain constant. The Marshallian theory of supply and demand is an example of partial equilibrium analysis.

  4. Price floor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_floor

    A price floor is a government- or group-imposed price control or limit on how low a price can be charged for a product, [1] good, commodity, or service. It is one type of price support; other types include supply regulation and guarantee government purchase price. A price floor must be higher than the equilibrium price in order to be effective ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Market clearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_clearing

    A market-clearing price is the price of a good or service at which the quantity supplied equals the quantity demanded, also called the equilibrium price. [2] The theory claims that markets tend to move toward this price. Supply is fixed for a one-time sale of goods, so the market-clearing price is simply the maximum price at which all items can ...

  7. Market structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_structure

    The market structure determines the price formation method of the market. Suppliers and Demanders (sellers and buyers) will aim to find a price that both parties can accept creating a equilibrium quantity. Market definition is an important issue for regulators facing changes in market structure, which needs to be determined. [1]

  8. Competitive equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Competitive_equilibrium

    Competitive equilibrium (also called: Walrasian equilibrium) is a concept of economic equilibrium, introduced by Kenneth Arrow and Gérard Debreu in 1951, [1] appropriate for the analysis of commodity markets with flexible prices and many traders, and serving as the benchmark of efficiency in economic analysis.

  9. Walras's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walras's_law

    Walras's law is a principle in general equilibrium theory asserting that budget constraints imply that the values of excess demand (or, conversely, excess market supplies) must sum to zero regardless of whether the prices are general equilibrium prices.
