I. DemandUse the table below to draw 1. Draw the demand curve here:
the demand curve:
Pizza Demand Schedule
Price Quantity
$.50 8
$1.00 7
$1.50 5
$2.00 2
$2.50 1
Price
Quantity
11. Fill in the direction of quantity:
Price Quantity
As the price goes up…
Quantity goes:
As the price goes down…
Quantity goes:
Summary: Consumers want (more/fewer) goods and services at higher prices than they do at lower prices.
2. Fill in the direction of quantity:
Price Quantity
As the price goes up…
Quantity goes:
As the price goes down…
Quantity goes:
Summary: People buy (more/fewer) goods and services at higher prices than they do at lower prices.
Consider this:
If there was an increase in demand for CDs what would that mean?
If there was an decrease in demand for CDs what would that mean?
II. Demand Shifts=when the curve moves!
Demand Increase Demand Decrease

The less you buy the more you will move to the left! If you get confused, think of a number line.
What direction and why? 3. When demand increased, what direction did
the curve shift?
4. When demand decreased, what direction did the curve shift?

6 Factors Shifting Demand
1. Number of Consumers= how many people live in a certain area
5.Who has more consumers, Raleigh or Northampton?
2. Consumer Disposable Income=income left over after you buy necessary items
6. Quick Review: What is the name of the tax we put on these “extra” goods?
7. What is consumer disposable income?
3. Consumer Tastes=popularity of the product
4. Consumer Expectations=what consumers expect to happen in the future
5.Substitutes=competing products that can be exchanged if the price of one increases
Substitute of hamburgers:
Substitute of cars:
6. Complementary Goods=products that are used together
Complement of peanut butter:
Complement of French fries:
Demand Shift Practice
Try it on your own!!
10 minutes to complete in groups, then correct as a class
If US Gov’t gave citizens a tax credit ($$$) then people would have more money to spend (more disposable income). Would demand increase or decrease?
Demand Factor Increase or Decrease?

III. Supply10. Draw the supply curve here:
Pizza Supply Schedule
Price Quantity
$.50 1
$1.00 2
$1.50 5
$2.00 7
$2.50 8
Use the table below to draw the supply curve:
11. Fill in the direction of quantity:
Price Quantity
As the price goes up…
Quantity goes:
As the price goes down…
Quantity goes:
Summary: Producers make (more/fewer) goods and services at higher prices than they do at lower prices.
What direction and why? 12. When supply increased, what direction did
the curve shift?
13. When supply decreased, what direction did the curve shift?

14. Predict: If it becomes cheaper to make something (like an iPod)…the cost of production goes down…what do you think would happen to the quantity supplied?
5 Factors Shifting Supply1. Number of
Suppliers=more businesses making a good=more supply of the good
2. Government Regulations=tighter government regulations (control) make it more expensive to make goodssupply decreases.
15. What are some examples of government regulations?
3. Taxes=Higher taxes raise business costsif a business has to pay more money to the gov’t, it has less to spend on factors of productionso supply decreases.
16. Illustrate how taxes work.
4. Subsidies=gov’t money given to businesses, people, or a group to help them out (reduces the cost of production)
5. Producer Expectations=if producers think that consumer demand is going to drop, they will reduce supply; if they think demand will increase, they will increase supply.
17. What are some other examples of subsidies?
23. If tape makers expect people to want CDs, what happens to supply? Why?
Congress gave all corn producers a subsidy for each bushel of corn they produce. Did the cost of corn production go up or down? Did the supply of corn increase or decrease?
Supply Factor Increase or Decrease?
Congress raised the minimum wage from $6.55 an hour to $7.25. What is the impact for fast food restaurants? Did the supply of fast food increase or decrease?
Supply Factor Increase or Decrease?
Congress cut the tax on American corporations to try and boost production in the United States. Did costs for corporations go up or down? Did supply increase or decrease?
Supply Factor Increase or Decrease?
A new shopping plaza opened on Highway. Did the # of suppliers increase or decrease? Did supply increase or decrease?
Supply Factor Increase or Decrease?
As the weather gets warmer near the end of the school year clothing stores expect consumers will want to buy summer clothes. Did the supply of winter clothes increase or decrease? Did the supply of SUMMER clothes increase or decrease?
Supply Factor Increase or Decrease?
