More Demand and More Supply
|
|
|
Market equilibrium is disrupted if both the demand (higher income) and supply (technological breakthrough) curves shift.- An increase in demand creates a shortage. Price and quantity tend to increase.
- An increase supply creates a surplus. Price declines and quantity increases.

- If demand shifts relatively more than supply, price is higher.
- If demand shifts relatively less than supply, price is lower.
