To determine

The law of supply.

Concept Introduction:

Law of Supply- The law establishes a direct relationship between the price and quantity supplied assuming ceteris paribus. The assumption implies that all other variables that affect supply like input prices, technology and factor productivity, taxes and subsidies, expectations of future relative prices, number of industries etc are held constant.

Supply Curve- The supply curve is upward sloping to the right given the direct relationship between price taken on the Y-Axis and quantity supplied on the X-Axis.
