Explain the concept of demand curve and the determinants/factors that can influence the demand of a product/service, using concepts from Block 5, Reading 40. Using these concepts, and the information from the case study, explain and discuss the determinants/factors that are affecting the demand for Tesla cars.
The demand curve is Concept in which it shows graphical representation of the relationship between the price of a good or service and the quantity demanded for a given period of time. the price will appear on the left vertical axis, the quantity demanded on the horizontal axis.
In this graphical representation, The demand curve will move downward from the left to the right, which expresses the law of demand — as the price of a given commodity increases, the quantity demanded decreases, all else being equal.
For example, if the price of corn rises, consumers will have an incentive to buy less corn and substitute it for other foods, so the total quantity of corn consumers demand will fall.
the exception to demand curve is a Giffen good. This is one that is considered a staple food, like bread or rice, for which there is no viable substitute. In short, the demand will increase for a Giffen good when the price increases, and it will fall when the prices drops. The demand for these goods are on an upward-slope, which goes against the laws of demand.
The factors or determinants that affect demand for a product/service are Prices of goods/services,Consumer's income, Price of related products or services, Consumer's taste or preference.these are some factors which can lead to changes in demand for a product or services.
If we apply this to Tesla's product or services.
Tesla is known for selling electric Cars models .It has three electric car models.In this case, we can see how Tesla is trying to reduce prices of its cars because it wants to clear its stock out So if Tesla decreases the price of its electric cars then the demand for its Cars will increase. The price is very important factor when a buyer consider. Tesla must make sure that its price reduction is effective and prefered by customers and outrun competition.
Consumer's income is very important factor because when they have high income level then their purchasing power increases. This will be in favor of Tesla because high income level means, consumers will afford its cars and show high demand for tesla cars.
Price of related goods or services is also a factor in which if there are cheaper substitute products like public transport, Metro,Cab services then it affect demand of Tesla cars because customer may want to use such subtitutes.
Consumer's taste also affect demand because if customer have taste in purchasing cars from big brand also want to drive electrics cars then demand for tesla electric cars will increase. but if customer have no taste to drive electric car and stay on fuel based cars then demand will decrease.
The Aggregate Demand curve is characterized as downward-sloping mainly because of the law of diminishing returns on marginal utility and income-substitution effect.
Here the demand is perturbed by political, technological, environmental, economic, and socio-cultural factors.
The demand for Tesla cars here is subdued due to inflated costs, lower tax credits, delayed inventories, shifts to electric vehicles, customers' right-hand drove preferences and logistical issues.
Explain the concept of demand curve and the determinants/factors that can influence the demand of a product/service
Other economic factors, known as determinants of demand, can affect the demand of a good or service by shifting the demand curve. Figures (a) and (b) show how the demand curve (Q) may shift with changes in the determinants of demand. Qu. Qo, P|QP, Q'. Figure (a) Figure (b) Use the two figures to indicate what might happen to demand for a good or service given the following changes in the determinants of demand. Peaches and cream are compliments in...
The authors distinguish between controllable and uncontrollable factors that influence the demand for a product. One of the controllable factors on their list is advertising, and ads are generally intended to shift the demand curve rightward. However, can you think of ad campaigns that backfired and hurt the demand for a product? What did the seller do to recover from this mistake?
From the e-Activity, compare the primary individual factors that influence demand, and explain the significant ways in which each affects the demand curve. Provide at least one (1) example of these factors to support your rationale. Subject: Healthcare
Explain microbial nutrition and discuss transport mechanisms, environmental factors that can influence growth, and methods to study microbial growth.
1. Outline the main factors that influence a firm’s decision to hire labour. Why do we refer to the demand for labour as a ‘derived demand. 2. Define (i) the marginal product of labour and (ii) the average product of labour. 3. Explain with the aid of diagrams, the employer’s optimal employment decision in the short-run. 4. Explain with the aid of diagrams, why the industry demand for labour curve is steeper than the sum of individual firms’ marginal revenue...
Product design and development 2) The demand for cloth hangers or racks has been increasing since the past two years in the coastal housing estates. From a recent study by TM Enterprise, it was found that most of the current outdoor hangers/racks were not able to withstand the corrosive atmosphere caused by the sea breeze. The produict development team of TM Enterprise has proposed five concepts of the hangers (Figure 1) suitable for outdoor and indoor (car porch) applications. As...
Using the concept of "carry trade," explain how a decrease in U.S. interest rates could affect the EUR/USD exchange rate. Given this change in exchange rate, how would firms and customers be affected? professors note Supply and demand for currencies can be tricky, not least due to the confusing idea that what we are buying or selling is money itself! Once you can wrap your mind around the idea that money is what is being obtained for other money, the...
1525 11. Discuss the most significant factors that affect demand for goods and services. 12. What causes for a demand curve to shift to right or to left? When do we move from one point to another on a demand curve, what causes it? 13. Demonstrate graphically how a horizontal summation of individual demand curves provides a "market demand curve." 14. Discuss the most important factors/variables that affect supply of goods and services. 15. Explain the difference between moving on...
1. Due to a shift in consumer taste, the demand curve for product X shifted steadily to the right. If one was to plot the price against quantity sold, would the resulting relationship approximate market demand curve? Explain. 2. Define economies of scope. Is this concept related to economies of scale? Explain. 3. Explain what is meant by the three stages of production? 4. A company has two million shares outstanding. It paid a dividend of $2 during the past...
