If any of these should change, there will be an effect on the equilibrium level of income.

As a consequence the equilibrium level of aggregate demand will fall.

Thus a rise in the price level leads to a fall in the equilibrium level of aggregate demand.

model

path

On an equilibrium path it is assumed that both capital and labour are fully employed.

The changes over time in capital and labour then govern the equilibrium path followed.

The question we now have to ask is whether the equilibrium path converges to a steady state.

In this sense the steady state may be a poor approximation, and we should study the full equilibrium path .

point

This is the point known as the equilibrium point.

If marginal costs are non-constant then no equilibrium price exists unless outputs are non-homogeneous, i.e. there is product differentiation.

There is a positive or direct relationship between a change in demand and the resulting changes in equilibrium price and quantity.

Different patterns of demand imply different demand curves for individual goods and services and determine different equilibrium prices and quantities.

quantity
