MODEL OF DEMAND
The model of demand is an attempt to explain the amount demanded of any good or service.
DEMAND DEFINED
The amount of a good or service a consumer wants to buy, and is able to buy per unit time.

THE “STANDARD” MODEL OF DEMAND
The DEPENDENT variable is the amount demanded.
The INDEPENDENT variables are:
the good’s own price
the consumer’s money income
the prices of other goods
preferences (tastes)

YOU COULD WRITE THE MODEL THIS WAY:
The demand for tacos
QD(tacos) = D(Ptacos, Income, Pspaghetti, Pbeer,
tastes)

THE DEMAND CURVE
The demand curve for any good shows the quantity demanded at each price, holding constant all other determinants of demand.
The DEPENDENT variable is the quantity demanded.
The INDEPENDENT variable is the good’s own price.

THE LAW OF DEMAND
The Law of Demand says that a decrease in a good’s own price will result in an increase in the amount demanded, holding constant all the other determinants of demand.
The Law of Demand says that demand curves are negatively sloped.

A demand curve must look like this, i.e., be negatively sloped.

AN IMPORTANT POINT
When drawing a demand curve notice that the axes are reversed from the usual convention of putting the dependent (y) variable on the vertical axis, and the independent (x) variable on the horizontal axis.

Other factors affecting demand
The question here is how to show the effects of changes in income, other goods’ prices, and tastes on demand.

Suppose people want to buy more of a good when incomes rise, holding constant all other factors affecting demand, including the good’s own price.

Normal and inferior goods defined
Normal good: When an increase in income causes an increase in demand.
Inferior good: When an increase in income causes a decrease in demand.

Substitutes defined
Substitutes: Two goods are substitutes if an increase in the price of one of them causes an increase in the demand for the other.
Thus, an increase in the price of pizza would increase the demand for spaghetti if the goods were substitutes.

Complements defined
Complements: Two goods are complements if an increase in the price of one of them causes a decrease in the demand for the other.
Thus, an increase in the price of pizza would decrease the demand for beer if the goods were complements.

DEMAND SUMMARY
Demand is a function of own-price, income, prices of other goods, and tastes.
The demand curve shows demand as a function of a good's own price, all else constant.
Changes in own-price show up as movements along a demand curve.
Changes in income, prices of substitutes and complements, and tastes show up as shifts in the demand curve.
