1 Supply and Demand We have learnt that demand is the amount of a good or service consumers are willing to buy. The opposite of demand is supply. Supply is how much of a good or service a producer (a business) is able and willing to make for sale to consumers. The law of supply says that when the price of a good or service rises, the producer (the business) will want to make or produce more of that good. Why would a producer want to make more of something when prices rise? Profit! The higher the price a producer can sell a good for, the higher the profit they will most likely earn. Hence, the business will want to make more of that good. Profit serves as an incentive (encouragement); it encourages a business to produce more of a good as prices rise. The bigger opportunity to make more profit, the more incentive a company has to figure out how to make more of something. However, if the price of a good falls or decreases, there is less of an incentive to make more of it. A business can t survive if they are not making a profit. Therefore, the law of supply also states that as a price of a good or service falls, producer will make less of it. Answer each question with a complete sentence on a separate piece of paper. 1. What is the opposite of demand? 2. What does supply mean? 3. What does the law of supply say? 4. Why does a producer (a business) want to make more of a good when prices rise? 5. What does profit serve as for a business? 6. The bigger the opportunity for a business to make more profit, will lead to what? 7. If the price of a good decreases, what happens with the incentive to produce the good?
2 Farmers serve as a great example of how the law of supply works. For instance, if a farmer is able sell his tomatoes for $5 dollars a basket, he would be willing to work his land to produce 100 baskets. However, if the price of tomatoes goes up to $10 a basket, the farmer now has an incentive to make more money (profit). Therefore, he will try and figure a way to produce even more tomatoes, more than the 100 baskets. To do this, he may worker harder, work more hours, use more land to grow more tomatoes, hire help, or even buy better equipment. But, what if the price for a basket of tomatoes falls to $3.00 a basket? The farmer will now decide to decrease the production of tomatoes because there is a lack of an incentive to grow so many. He may even begin to grow another crop that is more profitable. 8. Who serves as a great example of how the law of supply works? 9. If the price of tomatoes increases, what will the farmer decide to do? a. Why would he do this? 10.What might the farmer do in order to be able to produce more tomatoes? 11.What would the farmer decide to do if the price of tomatoes drops? a. Why would he do this?
3 Just like demand, supply can also be shown in a chart and graph. Below is a supply curve schedule for Ipads and supply curve graph. Supply Schedule for Ipads Price for one Ipad. The amount (quantity) of Ipads supplied. $ = is the amount the business (Apple) will be willing to make and supply. $ $ $ Looking at the supply curve graph above, you can see that as the price of an Ipad increases, the business is willing to supply more of them. At $1000 per Ipad, the business is willing to supply 25 Ipads. 12. What is the CHART called that shows the supply of Ipads depending on their price? 13. What is the graph called that shows the quantity of Ipads that Apple is willing to supply at a certain price. 14. If the price for Ipads decreases to $400 dollars each, how many will Apple be willing to supply? 15. As the price for Ipads increase, what is Apple going to do with supply?
4 Supply Curve Shift Price is not the only factor that influences the amount of a good that a producer is willing to make. There are several other factors that change how much of a good a business will supply. The Cost of Production The cost of production of a good is one of the most important things that can affect supply. The cost of production is how much it costs to make something. When It Cost More to Make a Good: If the cost of any of the resources, such as labor or materials, that it takes to make a good increase, it will cost the business more to produce it. When it cost a business more to make a good, its profits decrease. This decrease in profits causes the business to make less of the good; it will decrease supply. Therefore, anytime the cost of production of a good increases, a business will most often decide to decrease the supply. When it Cost Less to Make a Good: Sometimes, the cost of production of a good can decrease or become cheaper. If it cost less to make something, then a business will want to make more of that good. Often, a lower cost to make something means bigger profits. And as we have learned, a potential of making more profit encourages a producer to increase supply. Answer each question with a complete sentence on a separate piece of paper. 1. Beside price, what is one of the most important factors that can affect supply? 2. What does the cost of production mean? 3. What does an increase in the cost of production do to profits? 4. A decrease in profit will lead a business to do what with supply? 5. An increase in the cost of production of a good, will lead a business to do what with supply? 6. What does a lower cost to make a good mean for a business? 7. What will a decrease in the cost of production cause a business to do with supply?
5 Supply Curve Shift New Technology The introduction of new technology can also affect the amount of supply a business will produce. The use of new technology will almost always lower the cost to make something. And as mentioned before, the lower the cost to make something, the bigger the profit will be for a business. As we already know, businesses love bigger profits; it is their incentive to increase supply. Tax and Subsidies If the government imposes a tax on a business, then it will increase the cost of production for them. And, as we have learned an increase in the cost to make something, decreases profit for a business and leads them to decrease supply. Sometimes, the government decides to provide a subsidy to a business. A subsidy is extra money or a grant given to a business. The subsidy serves as an incentive for a business to increase supply. Competition Businesses compete with each other in the market. The number of businesses competing to make a type of good will affect the amount of a good supplied. More competition leads to an increase in supply. However, when there is less competition or no competition, there is a decrease in supply. 8. What does new technology almost always do? 9. If new technology lowers the cost of a good, what will occur with supply? 10. If the government taxes a business, what happens with the business s cost to produce a good? 11. A tax on a business, will cause what with supply? 12. What is a subsidy? 13. How will a subsidy affect supply? 14. When it comes to competition, the number of what will affect supply of a good? 15. What would more competition do to supply? 16. What would less competition do to supply?
6 Key Factors that Change Supply and Shift the Supply Curve Line Factors that cause an decrease Factors that cause an increase in in supply (line shifts to left) supply (line shifts to the right) Cost of production increases taxes Less competition Cost of production decreases Subsidies More competition New technology Supply Curve Shift One or more of the factors that can change supply will cause the supply curve line to shift. If one of the factors causes an increase in supply, the supply curve will shift to the right. If there is a decrease in supply, the line will shift to the left. 17. What do these important factors that can change supply cause the supply curve to do? 18. If there is an increase in supply, which direction does the supply curve shift? 19. If there is a decrease in supply, which direction does the supply curve shift? 20. If the cost of production increases, will there be a decrease or increase in supply? a. In which direction will the supply curve shift? 21. In which direction would higher taxes on a business cause the supply curve to shift? a. Would there be a decrease or increase in supply? 22. In which direction will more competition shift the supply curve? 23. How would new technology for a business change supply? a. In which direction would it shift the supply curve?
