Introduction:
Demand:
Demand refers to the total value of goods and services that are demanded at a particular price in a given period of time.
Demand curve:
Demand curve shows the quantity demand at different price levels. Since there is a negative relationship among the price and quantity demand, the demand curve slopes downward.
Supply:
Supply refers to the total value of goods and services that are available for purchase at a particular price in a given period of time.
Supply curve:
Supply curve shows the quantity supplied at different price levels. Since there is a positive relationship exists among the price and quantity supply, the supply curve slopes upward.
Subpart (b):
Summary Introduction
To determine: Equilibrium.
Introduction:
Equilibrium point:
Equilibrium point occurs at the point where the demand curve is intersects with the supply curve.
