INCREASES PRICE SCHEDULE TECHNOLOGY LESSER PREFERENCES SUBSTITUTE PRODUCT CURVE WEATHER GOVERNMENT POLICY SEASONAL PRODUCTS SURPLUS SHORTAGE I learned additional lessons in Applied Economics. This week I learned about the law of supply which states that when the increases the quantity of products that the producer is willing to sell. and the law of demand which states that the higher the the the demand. To be able to analyze the demand and supply I can use the demand and supply and the demand and supply graphical representation of the relationship of price and quantity. I also understand that aside from price, there are other factors that may affect the supply some of these are and There are also factors that may affect demand like and I can say that it is better if there is market equilibrium which means that the quantity supplied and the quantity…arrow_forwardConsider the markets for film streaming services,TV screens,and tickets at movie theaters.a.For each pair,identify whether they are complements or substitutes:Film streaming and TV screens.Film streaming and movie ticketsTV screens and movie ticketsb.Suppose a technological advance reduces the cost of manufacturing TV screens.c.
