Changes in demand and supply
So with all this in mind you can work through the examples on the next pages. However I would say what is missing is the amount of excess demand and excess supply can you say where this is in the diagrams? Remember to go through the ESEPME process carefully step by step and it should make logical sense to you as a cause and effect process.Summary
Having worked through this unit you should be able to:
1. Define a market
2. Show how it responds to changes in supply and demand ESEPME
3.
Demonstrate that movements along a demand curve come as a result of a
shift in the supply curve, and movements along a supply curve from a
shift of the demand curve.
