Lesson 8: Market Shocks | Unit 1: Adjustments Page: 1 of 20

Topic: Overview <=PAGE BACK | PAGE NEXT=>

In this lesson we use the market as a tool to understand our economic world, specifically, we see how markets move from one equilibrium to another.

One goal of this lesson:

  • Use the market model to examine the why and how of market shocks, adjustments to a new equilibrium.

  • Markets in the real world do not remain at the same equilibrium forever. Markets move. Prices and quantities change.
  • To understand real world changes, we need to analyze what happens to the market when a shock disrupt it.
