  2. Economic equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic_equilibrium

    In order to determine if Property P3 is satisfied, the same situations used to determine P3 in a competitive equilibrium can be used. When there is an excess in supply, monopolists will realize that the equilibrium is not at the profit-maximizing quantity and will put upward pressure on the price to make it return to equilibrium.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Cobweb model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobweb_model

    The equilibrium price is at the intersection of the supply and demand curves. A poor harvest in period 1 means supply falls to Q 1, so that prices rise to P 1. If producers plan their period 2 production under the expectation that this high price will continue, then the period 2 supply will be higher, at Q 2.

  5. Perfect competition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_competition

    Equilibrium in perfect competition is the point where market demands will be equal to market supply. A firm's price will be determined at this point. In the short run, equilibrium will be affected by demand. In the long run, both demand and supply of a product will affect the equilibrium in perfect competition.

  6. Price floor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_floor

    The equilibrium price is determined when the quantity demanded is equal to the quantity supplied. Further, the effect of mandating a higher price transfers some of the consumer surplus to producer surplus , while creating a deadweight loss as the price moves upward from the equilibrium price.

  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. Asset pricing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_pricing

    Under general equilibrium theory prices are determined through market pricing by supply and demand. [6] Here asset prices jointly satisfy the requirement that the quantities of each asset supplied and the quantities demanded must be equal at that price - so called market clearing.

  9. Long run and short run - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_run_and_short_run

    The transition from the short-run to the long-run may be done by considering some short-run equilibrium that is also a long-run equilibrium as to supply and demand, then comparing that state against a new short-run and long-run equilibrium state from a change that disturbs equilibrium, say in the sales-tax rate, tracing out the short-run ...
