Supply

how much the market can offer
.
The quantity supplied refers to the amount of a certain
good producers are willing to supply when receiving a
certain price.
The correlation between price and how much of a
good or service is supplied to the market is known as
the
supply relationship
The Law of Supply
Like the law of demand, the law of supply
demonstrates the quantities that will be sold at a
certain price
The supply relationship shows an upward slope.
This means that the
higher the price,
the
higher the
quantity supplied
.
Producers supply more at a higher price because
selling a higher quantity at a higher price increases
revenue.
Supply Curve
Demand and supply are core concepts in economics, driving the market economy. Demand reflects the desire for a product at different prices, with an inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded. Supply, on the other hand, represents what producers are willing to offer at various prices, with a positive correlation between price and quantity supplied. The laws of demand and supply govern these relationships, shaping the demand and supply curves that illustrate market dynamics.
