  1. The Demand and Supply Curve Economic Model • Objectives: • Understand the demand curve • Understand the supply curve • What happens when supply and demand meet and what causes an increase or decrease in one or the other?

  2. Can of Coke • How much are you willing to pay for an ice cold can of Coca Cola, that I will allow you to drink in class? • Let´s graph the result

  3. Can of Coke • 100 soles? • 20 soles? • 12 soles? • 8 soles? 5 soles? 50 centimos? • Whatdo wehave? Gotonextslide

  4. The Demand Curve • As the price increases (goes up) the quantity demanded decreases (goes down) = MOVEMENT ALONG THE CURVE • However, some things can actually move the curve, examples: • Changes in income (how much they people get paid) • Changes in consumer preference • Competitor prices

  5. Movement (increase or decrease) of the demand curve Practice: • In which direction (right = increase or left = decrease) does the demand curve move in the following situations: • People get a pay rise (or in our example, your parents give you more money to bring to school) • A competitor decreases its prices

  6. Movement (Increase or decrease) of the demand curve • You have a very successful advertisement on TV • The government increases income taxes • Ther product is found to be harmful to your health

  7. The Supply Curve • How much you would have to be paid (in soles, by other students) to be make a Mother´s Day Card that you will make yourself (to sell to other students for their moms) • For each card, 250 soles, 40 soles, 20 soles, 8 soles, 4 soles, 1 sol What do we have? Go to next slide

  8. The Supply Curve • As the price increases, supply increases = MOVEMENT ALONG THE CURVE • However, some things can actually move the supply curve to the right (= increase)or tothe left (= decrease) • Raw materials become cheaper • New machinery • Labor costs go up • Energy costs increase

  9. TODAY´S CLASS – 4.1 & 4.2 • Objective: Solidifyourknowledge of Demand and Supply Curve Economicmodel • And……teachtheabsentstudentsaboutthemodel…..Studentsabsentlastweekwillbetutoredbyclassmates, and willtake a 10 minute quiz at theend of theclass

  10. Review REVIEW

  11. PuttingtheDemand and Supply Curves Together • Wedrew a demand curve • Wedrew a supply curve • Whenweputthemtogetherwehave a modelfor a MARKET FOR A PARTICULAR GOOD OR SERVICE, WHERE BUYERS (DEMAND) AND SELLERS (SUPPLY) MEET

  12. Demand and Supply Curves meet • Thepoint of equilibrium, wherethetwo curves meet, ormarketclearingprice(point A)iswherethequantitydemandedequalsthequantitysupplied at a certainprice

  13. Now, how do thefourdifferentpossibilities look? 1. Increase in demand - DEMAND CURVE SHIFTS TO THE THE RIGHT INCREASE IN INCOME, DECREASE IN TAXES, INCREASE IN THE PRICE OF FANTA, ESPECIALLY HOT WEATHER • END UP AT EQUILIBRIUM POINT B, with a higherprice and a higherquantitydemanded

  14. Decrease in Demand 2. Decrease in demand - DEMAND CURVE SHIFTS TO THE LEFT INCREASE IN TAXES, DECREASE IN INCOME, A NEW JOB THAT PAYS LESSS, DECREASE IN PRICE OF COMPETITORS PRODUCT (FANTA), COLD WEATHER ALL SUMMER END UP AT EQUILIBRIUM POINT C, with a lowerprice and lowerquantitydemanded

  15. Increase in Supply • 3. Increase in supply - SUPPLY CURVE SHIFTS TO THE RIGHT RAW MATERIALS TO MAKE THE MOTHERS DAY CARD ARE CHEAPER, YOU GET SOME NEW SCISSORS OR MARKERS OR TAKE AN ART CLASS ANY OF WHICH MAKE YOU ABLE TO MAKE THE CARDS QUICKER, YOUR TEACHERS GIVE YOU EXTRA TIME TO MAKE THE CARDS IN CLASS, FOR COKE COULD BE A NEW DISCOVERY THAT MAKES THE PROCESSS TO MAKE COKE CHEAPER, OR THE TAXES THEY HAVE TO PAY TO THE GOVERNMENT DECREASE, OR THEIR WORKERS BECOME MORE EFFICIENT IN MAKING COKE • END UP AT EQUILIBRIUM POINT E, with a higherprice and lowerquantitydemanded

  16. Decrease in Supply Decrease in supply – SUPPLY CURVE SHIFTS TO THE LEFT THE COST OF THE RAW MATERIALS INCREASE, YOUR SCISSORS BREAK AND YOU HAVE TO USE OLD SCISSORS OR BAD MARKERS, OR YOUR TEACHERS DONT GIVE YOU ANY TIME TO MAKE THE CARDS IN CLASS. FOR COKE, COULD BE INCREASE IN THE TAXES THEY HAVE TO PAY, OR THEIR MACHINERY BREAKS, OR THEIR EMPLOYEES SAY THEY WANT TO BE PAID MORE MONEY.. END UP AT EQUILIBRIUM POINT F, with a lowerprice and lowerquantitydemanded
