The graph shows excess supply.Which needs to happen to the price indicated by p2 on the graph in order to achieve equilibrium?

Question illustration
A
It needs to be increased.
B
It needs to be decreased.
C
It needs to reach the price ceiling.
D
It needs to remain unchanged.
3

Both excess supply and excess demand are a result of

A
equilibrium.
B
disequilibrium.
C
overproduction.
D
elasticity.
4

The graph shows a point of equilibrium.If the quantity supplied is greater than the quantity demanded, what must happen to the price in order to reach equilibrium?

Question illustration
A
The price of the product will increase to meet equilibrium.
B
The price of the product will decrease to meet equilibrium.
C
Supply and demand must be raised.
D
Supply and demand must be lowered.
6

Which explains the connection between the law of demand and excess demand?

A
The law states that decreases in price leads to greater quantity demanded and limited supply, which occurs during excess demand.
B
The law states that increases in price increases leads to greater quantity demanded and limited supply, which occurs during excess demand.
C
The law states that decreases in price leads to greater supply and equilibrium, which occurs during excess demand.
D
The law states that increases in price leads to greater supply and equilibrium, which occurs during excess demand.
7

Supply and demand coordinate to determine prices by working

A
together.
B
competitively.
C
with other factors.
D
separately.
9

A
Supply and demand meet at a specific price.
B
Supply is slightly greater than demand.
C
Supply and demand meet at a specific quantity.
D
Supply and demand meet at a demand point.
E
Supply and demand meet at a supply point.
10

On a graph, an equilibrium point is where

A
a supply curve and a demand curve meet.
B
a supply curve is higher than a demand curve.
C
the supply and demand curves head up.
D
the supply and demand curves head down.
11

The graph shows excess demand.Which explains why the price indicated by p2 on the graph is lower than the equilibrium price?

Question illustration
A
As prices fall, quantity demanded goes up.
B
As prices fall, quantity demanded goes down.
C
As prices fall, quantity demanded stays the same.
D
As prices fall, quantity demanded disappears.
12

Equilibrium is defined when

A
supply is limited and demand decreases.
B
supply and demand meet.
C
demand is higher than supply.
D
supply is higher than demand.
13

Question illustration
A
Q needs to be coordinated with supply.
B
Q needs to be coordinated with demand.
C
The price of goods needs to be increased.
