What are a demand schedule and a demand curve?
A. A demand schedule is a table showing how the quantity demanded of some product during a specified period of time changes as the price of that product changes, holding all other determinants of quantity
demanded constant. When the points of quantity demanded and prices are plotted on a graph, it is called a demand curve.

Consider two types of cars:
1) Performance cars, which emphasize
good performance (good mileage, towing
capacity, horsepower, etc).
2) Luxury cars, which emphasize good
looks
Let's say that with the higher gas prices
Americans care less about how their cars
look and more about how they perform.
We'd therefore expect to see
in the market for performance cars and
in the market for luxury
cars.

- Choose a good or service you are familiar with. It should be something that is currently available for purchase. If your classmates would be unfamiliar with this good or service, provide a brief description. Initial Response: Complete all items below: 1) Choose the most likely demand shifter (the things that shift demand) for your product and explain why and how the demand curve is most likely to shift if there is a change in that demand shifter. If the demand curve shifts in the way you are suggesting, what will happen to equilibrium price and quantity? 2) Choose the most likely supply shifter (the things that shift supply) for your product and explain why and how the supply curve is most likely to shift if there is a change in that supply shifter.
