BRIEF INTRODUCTION
In economics, there are terms that you must learn to understand the
better market situations. A demand or the amount of good or service
consumers are willing to purchase at each price. If customers cannot pay for it,
there is no effective demand. Price is what a buyer pays for a unit of the
specific good or service. The total number of units purchased at that price is
called the quantity demanded.

The supply curve is a vertical line; overtime, supply curve slopes upward; the
more suppliers expect to be able to charge, the more they will be willing to produce
and bring to market.
In the Equilibrium point, the two slopes will intersect. The market price is
sufficient to induce suppliers to bring to market that same quantity of goods that
consumers will be willing to pay for at that price.

________1.The upward slope of the supply curve illustrates the law of demand—
―higher price leads to a higher quantity supplied, and vice versa‖.
________2.The downward slope of the demand curve illustrates the law of
supply—the inverse relationship between prices and quantity demanded.
________3.Time is important to supply because suppliers must react quickly to
a change in demand or price.
________4.A shift in a demand or supply curve occurs when quantity demanded
or supplied changes even though price remains the same.
________5.The law of supply says that ―at higher prices, sellers will supply more
of economic goods‖.

ANSWER KEY
PRETEST
PART I
A
B. Oversupply/surplus – the
quantity supplied is greater
than the quantity demanded
C. Shortage/scarcity -
The quantity supplied is less
than quantity demanded
PART II
1. The law of demand
2. The law of supply
ACTIVITIES:
Activity 1
1. The law of demand - According to the model above, ―Supply, Demand and
Marriage‖ excess demand for grooms should have caused the terms of
courtship to shift in favor of men. Economics teaches us that when there
is excess demand for a good, its price rises.
2. The law of supply - ―Men with better jobs would receive larger payments.
This can be compared to the supply of product at a given price. ―As the
price of a product increases, companies will produce more of the
product‖.
3. The law of demand – ―the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded‖
and vice versa
4. The law of supply – ―the higher the price, the higher the quantity supplied’
and vice versa.

3. True
6. A 9. B
7. B 10.A
8. B
PART III. Answer: No. This is not simply a move along the demand curve. In
December, demand for ―hamon‖ rises, causing the curve to shift to the right.
This allows both the price of ―hamon‖ and the quantity sold of Christmas trees
to rise.
Work Sheet
1. Law of Supply (TRUE)
―a higher price leads to a greater quantity supplied; and a lower price
leads to a lower quantity supplied. Assume that all other variables are
held constant.‖
