AR: The abbreviation for average revenue, which is the revenue received for selling a good, per unit of output sold, found by dividing total revenue by the quantity of output. Average revenue actually goes by a simpler and more widely used term... price. Average revenue is really a fancy-schmancy term for the price received by a seller for selling a good. However, using the longer term average revenue let's us see the connection with other terms, like total revenue, marginal revenue, and quantity.

Market Supply
This supply lesson provides an introduction, not only into Stuffed Amigo selling behavior, but into selling a wide range of other goods, even goods that aren't cute and cuddly. In fact, this supply topic does more than offer insight into selling behavior. It's also the second half of the market analysis -- the first half being demand. And to reiterate what I noted during the demand lesson, market analysis is one of the most widely used tools in the study of economics for explaining a lot of economic phenomenon. Of course to use markets, we now need to consider supply. - The first unit of this lesson, Selling Basics, introduces the basic concept of supply and a few related terms such as supply price and quantity supplied.
- In the second unit, Law of Supply, we move into a discussion of the law of supply, which captures the basic relation between supply price and quantity supplied.
- The third unit, Supply Curve, then develops the supply curve, which is the graphical embodiment of the supply concept.
- Moving onto the fourth unit, Determinants, we examine how the five basic supply determinants cause the supply curve to shift from one location to another.
- And in the fifth and final unit, Scarcity, we make a connection between supply and the limited resources part of scarcity.

Price stability is generally achieved by the ABSENCE of large or rapid increases or decreases in the price level.
