AGGREGATE MARKET EQUILIBRIUM: The state of equilibrium that exists in the aggregate market when real aggregate expenditures are equal to real production with no imbalances to induce changes in the price level or real production. In other words, the opposing forces of aggregate demand (the buyers) and aggregate supply (the sellers) exactly offset each other. The four macroeconomic sector (household, business, government, and foreign) buyers purchase all of the real production that they seek at the existing price level and business-sector producers sell all of the real production that they have at the existing price level. The aggregate market equilibrium actually comes in two forms: (1) long-run equilibrium, in which all three aggregated markets (product, financial, and resource) are in equilibrium and (2) short-run equilibrium, in which the product and financial markets are in equilibrium, but the resource markets are not.

- How relaxing the ceteris paribus assumption makes further analysis of supply and markets possible.
- How the changes in the supply determinants cause rightward or leftward shifts in the supply curve.
- The five basic supply determinants: resource prices, technology, prices of other goods, sellers' expectations, and number of sellers, and how each shifts the supply curve.
- How a change in the price of a substitute-in-production affects supply differently than a change in the price of a complement-in-production.
- Most important of all, the difference between a change in supply, caused by a change in a supply determinant, and a change in quantity supplied, caused by a change in price.

INCOME EFFECT The change in quantity demanded that results because a change in the demand price of a good affects real income (that is, the purchasing power of income) even though nominal income remains the same. This is one of two reasons, or effects, underlying the law of demand and the negative slope of the market demand curve. The other is the substitution effect.
