9. DEMAND SUPPLY AND PRICE
Demand
• The demand for product means the number of units of the product that people are
willing to buy at a given market price
Supply
• The supply of a product means the number of units of the product that producers
are willing to make available for sale at a given marker price
Price
• The price of any product in the long run is determined by the interaction of the
supply of and the demand for the product

10. EQUILIBRIUM
•What does a market equilibrium mean?
•Equilibrium is the state in which market supply and
and demand balance each other, and as a result prices
become stable. Generally, an over-supply of goods or
services causes prices to go down, which results in
higher demand—while an under-supply or shortage
causes prices to go up resulting in less demand.

13. FEATURES
Need not have to be a particular place or area
Buyers and sellers need not come into personal contact with each other

17. DISADVANTAGE
Sustainable development not always clearly addressed in the line with expectations
Market mechanism fails to provide a proper guideline for using appropriate material
for selecting project. It diverts investment to those directions in which profits are
high, neglecting socially desirable low profit ventures
Market can only serve those who are part of the market system
Market as a mechanism does not ensure that individual decision will optimize
economic performance in terms of society’s preferences and economic goals
Market mechanism is unlikely to produce the rapid structural changes which
development requires.

18. CONCLUSION
• Supply and demand interact to determine the market clearing price
• When not in equilibrium the market will adjust to alleviate a shortage or surplus and
return the market to equilibrium
• Markets must be competitive for the mechanism to be efficient
• Supply and demand analysis can:
• Help us understand predict how world economic conditions affect market price and
production
• Analyze the impact of government price controls, minimum wages, price supports,
and production incentives on the economy
• Determine how taxes, subsidies, tariffs and import quotas affect consumers and
producers
