Balancing the MarketBalancing the Market
Equilibrium is the point of balance between price and quantity.Equilibrium is the point of balance between price and quantity.
* * To find the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity, just To find the equilibrium price and equilibrium quantity, just look at the price at which the quantity supplied equals the look at the price at which the quantity supplied equals the quantity demanded.quantity demanded.
We can also illustrate equilibrium with a supply and demand graph.We can also illustrate equilibrium with a supply and demand graph.

Disequilibrium Disequilibrium
Disequilibrium happens if the market price or quantity supplied is Disequilibrium happens if the market price or quantity supplied is anywhere but at the equilibrium. This also happens if the anywhere but at the equilibrium. This also happens if the quantity supplied is not equal to the quantity demanded. quantity supplied is not equal to the quantity demanded.

“Price Ceilings”Top price that the government implant for
the sellers to charge a good or service.
-They decides what’s the maximum price.
-Government limits the seller’s income.
- Price ceiling increases the quantity supplied.
“Price Ceilings”
Government places price ceiling on some goods that are considered “essential" and might become too expensive for some consumers.
Goods and services. Too Expensive.

“The Cost of Price Ceiling”
Long waiting lists.Discrimination by Landlords:
Wealthy people rented
apartments at prices much less
than maker value.
They allocate the
Scarce supply of
Apartments among
The many people
Who want them.

“The cost of price ceilings”
Since the rents controls landlord’s profit, they try to increase their income by cutting cost.
Why?
Because of thewaiting list to get new apartments.
*The cost of price ceilings for renters.
Landlords looseinterest in working
hard to attractrenters.
Renters wouldwait months tohave routine
problems fixed.

“Ending Rent Control”
Benefits:
-Increases the number of apartments on the market by 10 000.
-Exceed the costs suggesting that there are better ways to help poor households find affordable housing.

“Price Floor”
Minimum Price, set by the government that must be paid for a good and services.
-The government wants
sellers to receive some
minimum reward for their
efforts.

Chapter 6 Section 2
Focus: When a supply/demand curve shifts, so does the equilibrium. Market price and quantity then move toward the new equilibrium
How do price and quantity move toward
equilibrium? If there is excess
supply the prices will fall and the demand will begin to rise until the two factors equal
If there is limited supply the prices are high and the demand will begin to decrease until the two factors equal each other
2 factors that can cause disequilibrium: shift in entire demand curve or supply curve
Changes in Price Factors that include shifting supply curve:
advances in technology new government taxes and subsidies changes in the prices of the raw materials labor used to produce goods
Market equilibrium occurs at intersection of supply curve and demand curve.
So shift in supply curve creates new equilibrium and market forces will begin to approach that equilibrium of price and quantity sold.
Shift in Supply Advances
Understanding a Shift in Supply Advances in production have allowed for manufactures to offer more products at lower prices causing the prices to fall and the supply curve to shift.
Finding a New Equilibrium
Surplus: when quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded at a specific price.
When supply increases, prices fall and quantity demanded increases to reach a new equilibrium.
Change moves along the demand curve, does not shift the entire thing. Price falls to a point where quantity supplied and quantity demanded are equal; and excess supply is not a problem.
When supply increases, and the entire supply curve shifts to the right.
Changing Equilibrium
Quantities demanded and supplied are higher, and the prices are lower.
Curve is continually shifting and equilibrium changes as market conditions change.
Frequent price changes, sales, and rebates are designed to keep the machines moving out of stores as fast as new machines come in.

Chapter 6 Section 3:
The Role of Prices
The Role of Prices
Prices help move land, labor, and capital into the hands of producers, and finished goods into the hands of buyers.
The process of buying things such as presents would be way more complicated without prices.
Without prices the supplier would have no consistent and accurate way to measure demand for a product.
Graphic: google.com Information: Economics textbook
Everyone (buyers and sellers) looks at prices to find out info on supply and demand of goods.
Rising prices in a market will cause existing firms to produce
more goods and will attract new firms to enter a market.
High prices indicate producers that a specific good is in demand; therefore they should use their resources to produce more.
Graphics: google.comInformation: Economics textbook
Low price means that a good is being overproduced.
For consumers, a low price indicates that they should buy more goods. It also indicates that the good has a low opportunity cost and offers a good buying opportunity.
High price is a red light to stop and think carefully before buying.
Prices are flexible.
Prices can be increased to solve excess demand, or decreased ton eliminate excess supply.

Information: Economics textbook
- Supply shock is a sudden shortage of a good.
- Rationing is dividing up goods and services using criteria other than price.
- Free market pricing distributes goods through millions of decisions made daily by consumers and suppliers.
- A benefit of a market-based economy is diversity of goods and services consumers are able to buy.

A Wide Choice of Goods
Market-Based: Price gives suppliers a way to allow consumers to choose among similar products. Also allows producers to target a audience. Example: If someone saw a sweater for $20.00,
another sweater that was the same look just different material for $40.00. A person might go for the cheaper sweater to save money.

Command Economy: One organization decides what goods are produced and how much stores will charge for these goods. Example: They restrict production to a few varieties of each product.

Rationing and Shortage
During a shortage the government decides the price.
During WWII, choices in products were limited so the government began to control the distribution of goods.

Efficient Resource Allocation
Efficient Resource Allocation: Economic resources – land, labor, and capital – will be used for their most valuable purpose.
Changes take place without any central control. The people decide.

Prices and the Profit Incentive
Depending on a situation it makes producers choose prices. Example: If a heat wave were to be on its way.
There would be a high demand for Air Conditioners and fans. So producers would raise prices to reach the incentive.

Market Problems
1- Imperfection competition, affect prices higher prices can affect consumer decisions.
2- Spillover costs (externalities) cost of production, (air and water pollution)
3- Imperfect information- prevent a market from operating smoothly.
