Demand Varies by Market Segment Random fluctuations usually are caused by factors beyond management control. However analysis will sometimes reveal that a predictable demand cycle for one segment is concealed within a broader‚ seemingly random pattern.

Demand can be defined as the quantity of particular good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at various price levels at a given point in time. Market demand for a product can be illustrated on a demand curve. Other factors such as a change in the level of income and a movement along a demand curve.

Question 1 On separate demand and supply diagrams for bread‚ sketch the effects of the following: Pricewe Pricewe (a) a rise in the price of wheat S1 S1 S S Quantity Quantity As the sketch shown above the supply curve is shift to the left‚ the price of the bread rises the quantity of sold will fall. Wheat is use in a flour to make a bread‚ therefore if the wheat price goes up the cost of producing will also increase. Hence the shift of the supply curve is to the left

the Section 5.3 Review and Section 6.2 Review videos I have realized that gas price changes are inelastic. Inelastic demand is “when percent change in quantity demanded is less than percent change in price‚ so price elasticity is less than 1 in absolute value” (Hubbard & O’Brien‚ 2015b). This means that when a price of a product changes‚ such as gas‚ it does not affect the demand of that good or service. I feel that consumers will be responsive to the price change when these fluctuations occur due
