Part 1 - Demand Key Points: 1. In this unit, we’re looking at competitive markets, where neither individual sellers nor buyers have the ability to set prices. Prices are determined “by the market.” 2. Demand – the quantities of a product or service that consumers are willing and able to buy at various prices during a particular period. 3. The demand curve is a graph of this data for a particular good. It is almost always downward sloping.
