How Prices Are Determined
Muhtasari
Two identical tomatoes, grown in the same field on the same day. One sells for a few cents in a village market in August; the other sells for many times that in a city supermarket in January. Nobody set either price. No committee met. Both figures emerged from the same machinery, and this lesson takes that machinery apart piece by piece.
You will build a demand curve and a supply curve from data, learn the one distinction that examiners test more than any other in this course, between a shift of a curve and a movement along it, and find the equilibrium price where the two sides finally agree. Then you will meet elasticity: the measurement that tells a producer whether raising a price will raise revenue or destroy it, and the one calculation on this specification where leaving out a minus sign costs you a mark.
