  2. Demand curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_curve

    The shift of a demand curve takes place when there is a change in any non-price determinant of demand, resulting in a new demand curve. [11] Non-price determinants of demand are those things that will cause demand to change even if prices remain the same—in other words, the things whose changes might cause a consumer to buy more or less of a ...

  3. Supply-side economics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supply-side_economics

    This is in contrast to demand-side policies (e.g., higher government spending), which even if successful tend to create inflationary pressures (i.e., raise the aggregate price level) as the aggregate demand curve shifts outward. Infrastructure investment is an example of a policy that has both demand-side and supply-side elements. [4]

  4. Complementary good - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complementary_good

    Conversely, a decrease in the price of will result in a positive movement along the demand curve of and cause the demand curve of to shift outward; more of each good will be demanded. This is in contrast to a substitute good, whose demand decreases when its substitute's price decreases. [2]

  5. Law of demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_demand

    A change in demand is indicated by a shift in the demand curve. Quantity demanded, on the other hand refers to a specific point on the demand curve which corresponds to a specific price. A change in quantity demanded therefore refers to a movement along the existing demand curve. However, there are some exceptions to the law of demand.

  6. 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 ...

  7. Keynesian cross - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keynesian_cross

    If any of the components of aggregate demand, a, I p or G rises, for a given level of income, Y, the aggregate demand curve shifts up and the intersection of the AD curve with the 45-degree line shifts right. Similarly, if any of these three components falls, the AD curve shifts down and the intersection of the AD curve with the 45-degree line ...

  8. Quasilinear utility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasilinear_utility

    In other words: a preference relation is quasilinear if there is one commodity, called the numeraire, which shifts the indifference curves outward as consumption of it increases, without changing their slope. In the two dimensional case, the indifference curves are parallel. This is useful because it allows the entire utility function to be ...

  9. Aggregate demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggregate_demand

    Aggregate demand is expressed contingent upon a fixed level of the nominal money supply. There are many factors that can shift the AD curve. Rightward shifts result from increases in the money supply, in government expenditure, or in autonomous components of investment or consumption spending, or from decreases in taxes.
