SKETCH THE CURVE:


DEMAND CURVE SUUPLY CURVE
DETERMINATS OF DEMAND
INTERNAL FACTORS
1. PRICE OF GOODS
- Assuming all other factors is equal or ceteris paribus, change in the price of a
good will affect the quantity demanded of the goods.

demanded for those goods will be increses.
- Relationship between price and the quantity of tea are negative.

When the price of tea increases, the quantity demanded for those goods will be
decreases, On the contrary, when the price of tea decreases, the quantity demanded
fot those goods will be increases.

another goods.

for its substitute

- Example goods, tea and coffee

When the price of coffee increases, the quantity demanded for the coffe will be
decreases. Then with this, the demanded for the tea will be increases. On the
contrary, when the price of the coffee decreases, the quantity demanded ofr the
coffee will be increases. Then with this, the demanded fot the tea will be decreases
- The original price for the coffee is P0 and the original quantity demanded for
the coffee is Q0. The original price for the tea is p and the original quantity
demanded for the tea is Q.
- When the price of the coffee increases to P1, the quantity demanded for the
coffee will be decreases to Q1. Then with this, the quantity demanded for the
tea will be increases to Q1. The effects is that the demand curve for the tea
shifts to the right from D0D0 to D1D1
- When the price of the coffee decreases to P2, the quantity demanded for the
coffee will be increases to Q2. Then with this, the quantity demanded for the
tea will be decreases to Q2. The effects is that the demand curve for the tea
shifts to the left from D0D0 to D2D2
2. PRICE OF OTHER GOODS (COMPLEMENTARY GOODS/BARANG
PELENGKAP)
- A complentary goods are a goods that used togather with other goods to complete
the finction of an object.
- An increases in the price of one goods will result in a decreases in the demanded

car is Q0. The original price for the petrol is P and the origial quantity
demanded for the petrol is Q
- When the price of the car increses to P1, the quantity demanded for the car
decreases to Q1. Then with this, the quantity demanded for the petrol
decreases to Q1. The effects demanded curve for petrol shifts to left from
D0D0 to D1D1.
- When the price of the car decreases to P2, the quantity demanded for the car
increases to Q2. Then with this, the quantity demanded for the petrol will be
increases to Q2. The effects demanded curve for petrol shifts to right from
D0D0 to D2D2
