Law of Supply
• The Law of Supply is the tendency of suppliers to offer more of a good at higher prices.
• Sellers love high prices.
• The Law of Supply is the opposite of the Law of Demand.

Look carefully at the curves.Do you notice that they move in
different directions? Why?

Why is the Law of Supply True?
• Supply increases as price rises because either existing firms will produce more to make greater profits…
• Or new firms will enter the market to take advantage of the high prices.
• Sellers love to make profits.

A Supply Curve
• A supply curve is a graphic representation showing the tendency of suppliers to supply more at higher prices.
• A supply curve will always rise left to right.
• Suppliers supply more at higher prices.

Elasticity of Supply
• Like Demand, Supply can be elastic or inelastic.
• In general, supply tends to be initially inelastic because it takes time to increase supply.
• However, some goods are more elastic than others.

Questions for Reflection:
• Define the Law of Supply.
• How does the Law of Supply differ from the Law of Demand?
• List two goods with inelastic supply.
• List two goods with elastic supply.
• Why does supply increase as price increase?
• Why does it take time to increase supply?
