Exploring Equilibrium

In this video, we’ll review equilibrium in the adjustment process, showing that the equilibrium price is the only stable price. Then we’ll take a look at equilibrium quantity, where quantity demanded is equal to quantity supplied, and how this plays out in a free market economy that seeks to maximize gains from trade.

    I've invested time and money into many failed startup businesses since 2008(most recent being a mlm company a few years ago), so I've been in the field of finance & economics for a while, but some of the stuff taught in these lessons I've never knew before. Great tutorials!

    If the elasticity of demand is low and the revenue is higher at a certain price point than the equilibrium revenue, why would there be factors still pushing the supplier to lower the price of the good? ex: equilibrium for the oil is $70 and 68 tons of oil, but at a price of $75 the quantity demanded is 66 tons of oil. The revenue for the equilibrium would be $4760 and at $75 the revenue would be $5100. What incentives would there be from the producer to lower the price to the equilibrium level?

    At 75$, buyers will only purchase 66 MBD while sellers are willing to produce 70 MBD, this make me thinking of the extra fee for dealing with the surplus barrels when setting the price at $75. I'm talking about the 4 million barrel of oil (MBD) that can't be sold. What a producer gonna do with it? The scenario I came up with is that maybe you have to pay for a 3rd companies (like an ads agency) to help you promote and sell those excess barrels of oil. Although the producer gross 340$ when setting the price at 75$, they may have to pay an extra extra fee to handling those excess barrels.

    Maybe because the competitors will sell at lower price.

    In most competitive markets, firms are price-takers. If firms charge higher than prevailing market prices for their products, consumers will simply purchase from a different lower-cost seller to the extent that these firms all sell identical (substitutable) goods or services.

    I feel like the way I understand one things clashes with what I'm understanding about something else. My professor is too cocky to effectively answer questions, so I'll keep watching these videos in the hopes that something will click.
