how much buyers are willing and able to buy at each possible price.
question

the fact that the level of income is inversely related to quantity demanded.
The demand for a product depends on two conditions: i) intent – there must be a willingness
to buy, and ii) means to buy – you must have the income or purchasing power. In general, we
refer to demand as the quantities of a good or service a consumer is willing and able to buy.

24 units.
The market demand is the sum of the individual demand at each price. At a price of R8, the

a normal good.

a rightward shift of a demand curve.
question
a movement downward and to the right along a demand curve.
a leftward shift of a demand curve.
This question deals with shifts of versus movements along curves. The easiest way to deal with
the distinction between the two is to remember that if there is a change in price (and only if there
is a change in price), we have a change in quantity demanded. A change in quantity demanded is
shown by a movement along the demand curve. If any of the other determinants of demand
change (income, taste, fashion …) there is a change in demand, which is illustrated by a shift of
the demand curve. An increase in demand is represented by a rightward shift of the demand
curve.

question
decrease in the demand for hot dog buns.
decrease in the demand for hot dogs ____
, An increase in the price of hot dogs will lead to a decrease in the quantity demanded of hot dogs
(therefore an upward movement along the demand curve for coffee). Less hot dogs are sold, so
less hot dog rolls are need - the demand for hot dog rolls decreases.

question
your demand for pecan nut butter will decrease by the end of the year.
the quantity pecan nuts demanded by you will decrease by the end of the year.
you decide to give up pecan nuts completely.
Remember the inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded. The higher price for
peanuts will lead to a decrease in the quantity demanded.
Question 8 What is the law of demand?

When the price of a good falls, buyers respond by purchasing more.
question
When buyers tastes for the good increase, they purchase more of the good.
When income levels increase, buyers respond by purchasing more.
According to the law of demand, there is a negative relationship between quantity demanded and
price. Thus, when the price of a good falls, buyers respond by purchasing more.

good.
