  2. Demand curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand_curve

    The constant b is the slope of the demand curve and shows how the price of the good affects the quantity demanded. [6] The graph of the demand curve uses the inverse demand function in which price is expressed as a function of quantity. The standard form of the demand equation can be converted to the inverse equation by solving for P:

  3. Law of demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_demand

    The demand curve, shown in blue, is sloping downwards from left to right because price and quantity demanded are inversely related. This relationship is contingent on certain conditions remaining constant. The supply curve, shown in orange, intersects with the demand curve at price (Pe) = 80 and quantity (Qe)= 120.

  4. Total revenue test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_revenue_test

    Total revenue, the product price times the quantity of the product demanded, can be represented at an initial point by a rectangle with corners at the following four points on the demand graph: price (P 1), quantity demanded (Q 1), point A on the demand curve, and the origin (the intersection of the price axis and the quantity axis).

  5. Price elasticity of demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Price_elasticity_of_demand

    A set of graphs shows the relationship between demand and revenue (PQ) for the specific case of a linear demand curve. As price decreases in the elastic range, the revenue increases, but in the inelastic range, revenue falls. Revenue is highest at the quantity where the elasticity equals 1.

  6. Demand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demand

    Demand curve is a graphical presentation of the "law of demand". [8] The curve shows how the price of a commodity or service changes as the quantity demanded increases. Every point on the curve is an amount of consumer demand and the corresponding market price. The graph shows the law of demand, which states that people will buy less of ...

  7. 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 ...

  8. Giffen good - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giffen_good

    For almost all products, the demand curve has a negative slope: as the price increases, quantity demanded for the good decreases. (See Supply and demand for background.) Giffen goods are the exception to this general rule. Unlike other goods or services, the price point at which supply and demand meet results in higher prices and greater demand ...

  9. Market demand schedule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Market_demand_schedule

    At any given price, the corresponding value on the demand schedule is the sum of all consumers’ quantities demanded at that price. Generally, there is an inverse relationship between the price and the quantity demanded. [1] [2] The graphical representation of a demand schedule is called a demand curve. An example of a market demand schedule
