What would be the next two steps that follow after the shortage?Continuing from 4.27, what would be the next two steps that follow after the shortage? Demand will decrease and supply will increase. Consumers will pay a higher price and producers will be able to raise their price while still selling all of their inventory. The shortage shrinks and there is a new equilibrium.
How is equilibrium reached after a shortage?The price will rise until the shortage is eliminated and the quantity supplied equals quantity demanded. In other words, the market will be in equilibrium again. As before, the equilibrium occurs at a price of $1.40 per gallon and at a quantity of 600 gallons.
How can prices solve problems of shortage?If a surplus exist, price must fall in order to entice additional quantity demanded and reduce quantity supplied until the surplus is eliminated. If a shortage exists, price must rise in order to entice additional supply and reduce quantity demanded until the shortage is eliminated.
What is the relationship when there is a shortage?In the instance there is a shortage of a product, the quantity demanded will surpass the quantity supplied, and thus demand will be in excess. The occurrence and availability of surplus is a clear indication that the quantity supplied is more than the quantity demanded by consumers.
