    But if we look at mortgage rates (a factor other than price), even if housing prices remain unchanged, an increased mortgage rate leads to a lower willingness to buy at all prices, shifting the demand curve to the left. Consumers will buy less, even though the price is the same. [12]

  3. 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 for 8,000 units, creating a shortage. If the current market price was $8.00 – there would be excess supply of 12,000 units.

    That is to say that, if and were constant or growing at equal fixed rates, then the inflation rate would exactly equal the growth rate of the money supply. An opponent of the quantity theory would not be bound to reject the equation of exchange, but could instead postulate offsetting responses (direct or indirect) of Q {\displaystyle Q} or of V ...

  5. Excess demand function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_demand_function

    The concept of an excess demand function is important in general equilibrium theories, because it acts as a signal for the market to adjust prices. [2] The assumption is that the rate of change of the price of a commodity will be proportional to the value of the excess demand function for that commodity, eventually leading to an equilibrium state in which excess demand for all commodities is ...

    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 ...

    When export prices increase faster than import prices, the country’s revenue goes up, as does the demand for the nation’s currency. As more people want to buy the currency, the value increases.

  8. Competitive equilibrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Competitive_equilibrium

    If the price of Y decreases, then the demand for X either remains constant or decreases. A utility function is called GS if, according to this utility function, all pairs of different goods are GS. With a GS utility function, if an agent has a demand set at a given price vector, and the prices of some items increase, then the agent has a demand ...

  9. Market rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_rate

    The market rate (or "going rate") for goods or services is the usual price charged for them in a free market. If demand goes up, manufacturers and laborers will tend to respond by increasing the price they require, thus setting a higher market rate. When demand falls, market rates also tend to fall (see Supply and demand).
