Cost and the Supply Curve
Cost is the value of everything a seller must give
up to produce a good (i.e., opportunity cost).
Includes cost of all resources used to produce
CS with Lots of Buyers & a Smooth D Curve
CS is the area b/w P and the D curve, from 0 to Q. Recall: area of a triangle equals ½ x base x height Height of this triangle is $60 – 30 = $30. So, CS = ½ x 15 x $30 = $225.

How a Higher Price Reduces CS
If P rises to $40, CS = ½ x 10 x $20 = $100. Two reasons for the fall in CS.

A seller will only produce and sell the good if the price exceeds his or her cost. Hence, cost is a measure of willingness to sell.

The others get no CS because they do not buy an iPod at this price.
