Figure 1

Catherine’s Demand Schedule and Demand Curve Price of Ice- Cream Cone Quantity of Cones Demanded $0.00 12 cones 0.50 10 1.00 8 1.50 6 2.00 4 2.50 2 3.00 0 The demand schedule is a table that shows the quantity demanded at each price. The demand curve, which graphs the demand schedule, illustrates how the quantity demanded of the good changes as its price varies. Because a lower price increases the quantity demanded, the demand curve slopes downward. © 2015 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.

Table 1

Variables That Influence Buyers Variable A change in this variable… Price of the good itself Represents a movement along the demand curve Income Shifts the demand curve Prices of related goods Shifts the demand curve Tastes Shifts the demand curve Expectations Shifts the demand curve Number of buyers Shifts the demand curve This table lists the variables that affect how much consumers choose to buy of any good. Notice the special role that the price of the good plays: A change in the good’s price represents a movement along the demand curve, whereas a change in one of the other variables shifts the demand curve. © 2015 Cengage Learning.
