DEMAND - CONSUMERS
DEMAND = QUANTITIES OF A GOOD OR SERVICE THAT THE
POTENTIAL BUYERS ARE WILLING AND ABLE TO BUY
DEMAND IS NOT NEEDS, WANTS, CLAIMS OR REQUESTS
DEMAND IS A FLOW CONCEPT
INDIVIDUAL DEMAND vs. MARKET DEMAND

DEMAND - CONSUMERS
DETERMINANTS OF MARKET DEMAND:
– Consumer’s income
– Prices of complements and substitutes in consumption– Consumer Preferences
– Population/number of buyers/size of the households
– Consumer expectations of future prices
– Advertisement campaign

SUPPLY - PRODUCERS
DEFINITION OF SUPPLY: THE QUANTITIES OF A GOOD OR
SERVICE THAT PRODUCERS PLAN (AND ARE ABLE) TO SELL AT
EACH POSSIBLE PRICE DURING A CERTAIN PERIOD
SUPPLY ALSO A FLOW CONCEPT
