  6. DETERMINING PRICE • Factors influencing demand • If many consumers want (demand) a particular good or service, the price generally goes up. • If fewer consumers want (demand) a particular good or service, the price generally goes down. • When a good substitute good is available, demand stays relatively low • When no good substitute is available, demand remains high

  7. DETERMINING PRICE • Factors influencing supply • If supply is high, price stays low • If supply is low, price will increase • Competition generally increases supply • Lack of competition results in higher prices • Some businesses try to restrict supply in order to maintain higher prices
