How to Calculate Market Equilibrium | (NO GRAPHING) | Think Econ
In this video we explain how to use the demand and supply equations to solve for the equilibrium price and quantity values (often referred to as P* and Q*) using just algebra! This is something which you will need to know how to do throughout your studies in economics, so it's definitely worth reviewing to ensure you understand it.

Do I keep the negative & positive always on the side it presents itself in the original formula. for example 100-3p = 2p+20. So when we separate the constants and the P's the negative stays with the left and the positive with the right? Hope that makes sense.
@ThinkEcon
Жыл бұрын
When you switch anything to the opposite side of the equals sign, you have to change the sign. So for 100 - 3P, the negative sign is attached to the 3P, and so when you move that to the other side, it becomes + 3P. Which would yield 100 = 2P + 20 + 3P. But you'll want to only have P terms on the right, so you would move that + 20 to the left, where it will become - 20. So now you have 100 - 20 = 2P + 3P. Does this help?

So as you'll see in the video, the supply and demand curves are actually linear. So the 100 and the -3P are actually the y-intercept and the slope, the same as if it was in y=mx+b form. Does this help?

thank you very much. But what if it is a two-good economy? Will I have two equilibriums?
@ThinkEcon
8 ай бұрын
You’re welcome, and great question! So if you were given the supply and demand equations of individual goods, then yes, you’d be able to graph supply and demand equilibrium twice, once for each good. This would give you an equilibrium for each good. However, sometimes you’ll be asked to plot what’s called the market demand and market supply, which is all of the demand curves added up, and all of the supply curves added up for all individuals in an economy! Hope this helps :)

Why must the supply and demand balance out in a market equilibrium? What is meant by the equilibrium price? Why do you need to use the equilibrium price to work out the values for both p & q? Thank you.
@ThinkEcon
Ай бұрын
The intuition is that in equilibrium, supply and demand equal each other and so at the equilibrium price there is no surplus or shortage of quantity in the economy! It's the price that makes the consumer AND producer both happy to engage in market activities. If the price is higher than equilibrium, the consumer is worse off and will demand less. Therefore there will be a surplus. If the price is lower than the equilibrium price then the producers will be worse off and supply less. In this case there would be a shortage! We call both of these cases "disequilibrium." Hope this helps :)

Where did the values 100 and 3 in Demand function came from?
@ThinkEcon
4 ай бұрын
The demand function will normally be given to you in the question. This particular one is just a random demand equation that I’ve made up for the video to illustrate how to calculate equilibrium. If you put the demean equation into y=mx+b form, then the 100 and 3 would represent the slope and y-intercept of the demand curve. Hope this helps!
