Law of Demand: As price increases, quantity demanded decreases (ceteris paribus)
Law of Supply: As price increases, quantity supplied increases (ceteris paribus)
Equilibrium price is the price at which quantity demanded equals quantity supplied
Shifts in demand curve are caused by changes in factors other than price (e.g., income, tastes, expectations)
Shifts in supply curve are caused by changes in factors other than price (e.g., input costs, technology, number of sellers)
Elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in price
Elasticity of supply measures the responsiveness of quantity supplied to a change in price
Market equilibrium is dynamic and changes in response to shifts in demand and supply
Government interventions like price ceilings and price floors can distort market equilibrium
Understanding demand and supply is crucial for analyzing market outcomes and policy impacts
