What is a Supply

Schedule?
Definition: Supply schedule is a chart that shows how much product a
supplier will have to produce to meet consumer demand at a specified
price based on the supply curve. In other words, it’s basically a supply
graph in spreadsheet form listing the quantity that needs to be produced
at each product price level.

What is the definition of supply schedule? This concept is particularly


important for businesses because they have to understand what
happens to their inventory and units sold as the sales price changes.
For example, the supply curve shows us that an increase in the selling
price of a good will increase the business’ willingness to produce the
good.

Define Supply Schedule: Supply schedule means a table that represents


the sales price and quantity supplied as depicted in the economic
supply curve for that product or market.

What Is a Supply Curve?


The supply curve is a graphic representation of the correlation between the
cost of a good or service and the quantity supplied for a given period. In a
typical illustration, the price will appear on the left vertical axis, while the
quantity supplied will appear on the horizontal axis.

How a Supply Curve Works


The supply curve will move upward from left to right, which expresses
the law of supply: As the price of a given commodity increases, the
quantity supplied increases (all else being equal).
