LAW OF SUPPLY: The direct relationship between supply price and the quantity supplied, ceteris paribus. This fundamental economic principle indicates that as the price of a commodity increases, then the quantity of the commodity that sellers are able and willing to sell in a given period of time, if other factors are held constant, also increases. This law, while not quite as iron-clad as the law of demand, is quite important to the study of markets.

CONSUMER BEHAVIOR: Actions (that is, behavior) undertaken by people (that is, consumers) that involve the satisfaction of wants and needs. Such actions often, but not always, involve the acquisition (that is, purchase) of goods and services through markets. The study of consumer behavior is fundamental to the understanding of the demand-side of the market. From a marketing perspective, the patterns, actions or steps in the process of decision making by consumers. The decision making process is influenced by various attitudes, motives, and social influences on the purchaser. Buyers tend to behave in certain ways including habits, brand loyalty, and post purchase behavior.
