Determinants of Supply
• Productivity (Improvements in machines and production processes of a good or service)
• Inputs ( Change in the price of inputs required to produce the good or service.)
• Government Actions (Subsidies, Taxes and Regulations)
• Technology (Improvements in machines and production processes of a good or service)
• Outputs ( Price changes in other products produced by the firm)
• Expectations (outlook of future prices and profits)• Size of Industry (Number of firms in the industry)
Equilibrium
• Equilibrium: The condition that exists when quantity supplied and quantity demanded are equal. At equilibrium, there is no tendency for price to change.
• Shortage or excess demand: The condition that exists when quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied at the current price.
• Surplus or excess supply: The condition that exists when quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded at the current price.

Excess Demand
• Excess demand, or shortage, is the condition that exists when quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied at the current price.
• When quantity demanded exceeds quantity supplied, price tends to rise until equilibrium is restored.
Excess Supply
• Excess supply, or surplus, is the condition that exists when quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded at the current price.
• When quantity supplied exceeds quantity demanded, price tends to fall until equilibrium is restored.
Changes in Equilibrium (IRDL)
• Increase in demand leads to higher equilibrium price and higher equilibrium quantity.
• Increase in supply leads to lower equilibrium price and higher equilibrium quantity.
Changes in Equilibrium (IRDL)
• Decrease in demand demand leads to lower price and lower quantity exchanged.
• Decrease in supply leads to higher price and lower quantity exchanged.
