– Demand schedule: a table – Demand curve: a graph
• Price on the vertical axis • Quantity on the horizontal axis
• Individual demand
– An individual’s demand for a product
– Increase in demand
• Any change that increases the quantity demanded at every price
• Demand curve shifts right
– Decrease in demand
• Any change that decreases the quantity demanded at every price
• As the price of the good varies • Other things constant

Market Demand as the Sum of Individual Demands
The quantity demanded in a market is the sum of the quantities demanded by all the buyers at each price. Thus, the market demand curve is found by adding horizontally the individual demand curves. At a price of $2.00, Catherine demands 4 ice-cream cones, and Nicholas demands 3 ice-cream cones. The quantity demanded in the market at this price is 7 cones.
• No single buyer or seller has any influence over the market price
• Price takers

• Buyers can buy all they want
• Sellers can sell all they want
– Market in which there are many buyers and many sellers

Demand curve, D2
Quantity of Ice-Cream Cones
Any change that raises the quantity that buyers wish to purchase at any given price shifts the demand curve to the right. Any change that lowers the quantity that buyers wish to purchase at any given price shifts the demand curve to the left.

Markets and Competition
• Perfectly competitive market
– Goods offered for sale are all exactly the same
– Buyers and sellers are so numerous
– Highly organized
• Markets for many agricultural commodities

Questions
• If you are making real estate investment decisions, how would you predict the effect of the policy changes?
The demand schedule is a table that shows the quantity demanded at each price. The demand curve, which graphs the demand schedule, illustrates how the quantity demanded of the good changes as its price varies. Because a lower price increases the quantity demanded, the demand curve slopes downward.
quantity demanded of the good falls – When the price falls, the quantity
demanded rises
