4. Income effect - person’s consumption of goods change when their income changes
5. Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility - the more a person consumes a g/s, they benefit less
6. Demand schedule - table that shows the quantity bought by an individual
7. Market demand schedule - all consumers & the quantity bought
8. Demand curve (inverse relationship) - inverse relationship between price & quantity
9. Ceteris paribus - only price changes
10. Change in Demand - factors that aren’t price related

17. Inelastic demand - needs; when price changes, there is little change in demand
18. Elasticity of demand - how much a consumer changes their buying habits as a result of a change in price
Law Of Supply
19. Law of supply - relationship between price and quantity supplied
20. Quantity supplied - how much of a good is offered for sale at a given price
21. Supply schedule - chart price listings for individual supplier
22. Market supply schedule - lists how much of a g/s ALL suppliers are willing to offer at different prices
23. Supply curve - relationship between price and supplied quantity
24. Market supply curve - movement along the supply curve
25. Elasticity of supply - measure of the way quantity supplied reacts to a change in price
26. Fixed cost - costs in a business that is constant (ex. weekly payroll)
27. Variable cost - costs that rise & fall (ex. hourly wage)
28. Total cost - FIxed Cost + Variable Cost = Total Cost
29. Law of Increasing Costs - no matter how much is produces, it will always cost more to produce

31. Law of Increasing Opportunity Costs - businesses make choices based on the resources they have available
32. Operating cost - ongoing expenses incurred from the normal day-to-day of running a business
33. Marginal product of labor - change in total product / change in labor
34. Increasing marginal returns - as long as all variables are kept constant, there will be an incremental increase in marginal efficiency
35. Diminishing marginal returns - predicts that after some optimal level of capacity is reached, adding an additional factor of production will actually result in smaller increases in output
36. Negative marginal returns - When additional units of a variable factor reduce total output, given constant quantities of all other factors, the company experiences negative marginal returns.
37. Marginal revenue - increase in revenue that results from the sale of one additional unit of outpu
38. Change in Supply - shifting on the supply curve (usually due to technology, costs, regulations)

43. Equilibrium - where market & demand meet
44. Disequilibrium - supplied anywhere other than equilibrium
45. Excess demand - market demand for a commodity is greater than its market supply
46. Shortage - quantity supply > quantity demand
47. Excess supply - quantity of a good or service supplied is more than the quantity demanded,
48. Surplus - quantity demand < quantity supply
49. Price ceiling - maximum price that sellers may change, set by the government
