SummarySummary

• The supply curve shows how the quantity of a good supplied depends upon the price.– According to the law of supply, as the price of

a good rises, the quantity supplied rises. Therefore, the supply curve slopes upward.

– In addition to price, other determinants of how much producers want to sell include input prices, technology, expectations, and the number of sellers.

– If one of these factors changes, the supply curve shifts.
