What to Focus On

  • Demand means desire backed by purchasing power.
  • Effective demand = desire + purchasing power.
  • Demand is a flow concept expressed per unit of time.
  • Price is the most important factor affecting individual demand.
  • Substitute goods have a direct relation between one good’s price and the other’s demand.
  • Complementary goods have an inverse relation between one good’s price and the other’s demand.
  • Law of demand shows inverse relation between price and quantity demanded.
