In determining the nature of the market, supply and demand are two fundamental

factors that are discussed in this video. This is a key factor in determining how much
goods and services cost. The law of demand states that as a commodity's price grows,
so does the amount requested of it. The quantity demanded can be interpreted as the
number of manufactured goods customers are willing to purchase at a specific price.
Demand and quantity demanded together define a demand relationship. Demand can
be expressed as the quantity of a good or service that consumers need. What the
market can provide is supply. The amount of items producers are willing to supply at a
specific price is known as the quantity supplied. According to the law of supply, a
commodity's supply increases with price and vice versa. Price is affected by supply and
demand in several ways. But, it is thought that they reach equilibrium when supply and
demand are equal. However, there are considered to be points of disequilibrium,
leading to a shift, if the supply exceeds the demand, the demand exceeds the supply, or
the two are not balanced. When the quantity of a product is changed while the price
remains constant, the demand or supply curve is shifted. It's not pricing that causes a
shift; it's other things. When a given commodity is in demand, its price will change
depending on the availability of a substitute or complement is offered. Additionally,
customers might seek to modify their preferences and tastes in favor of the product.
Other supply-related factors, such as advancements in production technology that will
result in high productivity and an increase in supply, may induce a shift in the supply
curve. A good climate will also result in higher production and a large supply.

According to the law of demand, a good's price increase produces a fall in quantity
wanted, and a good's price decrease causes an increase in quantity demanded, ceteris
paribus. The demand curve shifts as a result of this price change. It is significant to
remember that changing the price does not alter demand. It just modifies the amount
demanded. In addition to price, other factors can affect demand (a change in quantity
demanded at every price). These modifications cause the entire curve to move
(increase to the right and decrease to the left), changing the demand. These
modifications are referred to as demand non-price determinants. These are the five
determinants of demand the price of products, consumer's income, price of related
goods, tastes and preferences of consumers, consumer's expectations, and the number
of consumers in the market. Price of products as the price of the commodity changes,
so does the demand for the product. Only when all the variables that affect how people
choose to purchase a thing remain consistent will people's purchasing decisions.
Consumer's income when the income increases, the number of goods demanded also
increases. Likewise, if the income decreases, the demand also decreases. Price of related
goods is an increase in the price of one commodity will result in a drop in demand for a
complementary good. Consumer's expectations demand increases when there is high hope of
income or an expectation that a good's price will rise. Similar to this, low-income expectations or
low prices for items will reduce demand. Number of consumers in the market there will be a
change in demand if a commodity has more or fewer purchasers than usual.

Given a limited supply, the law of demand states that if more people want to buy
something, the price will increase. Likewise, buyers will buy fewer goods, the more
pricey products are, in total. Together with the law of supply, the law of demand enables
us to understand why prices are established at the levels they are and to identify
chances to purchase or sell products, assets, or securities that appear to be overvalued
(or to sell those that are believed to be underpriced).
