Supply and Stock
• Stock is the amount of goods currently available for sale.
• Stock: regarded as inventories.• Supply: is the amount of goods that sellers
offer to sell at various prices, ceteris paribus.• Rational seller: maximises profits• Supply is a flow of goods at various prices,• Can be shown as a schedule or in a diagram.

The Supply Curve
• The Law of Supply: Other things remaining constant, quantity supplied of a commodity is positively related to its price.
Sq = f(P)• Higher the price, higher the quantity supplied.• The Supply curve slopes upwards to the right.• Higher price means higher profit margin, given
costs.• So sellers increase their supply, when price is
higher.01/05/23 Prabha Panth

Factors affecting Supply1. Price of the commodity – more is supplied at
higher prices, less at lower prices.2. Prices of related goods – Substitutes - If price of tea falls, then demand for
tea increases, but demand for coffee falls. So supply of coffee falls.
Complements in production -- good that is produced with other good – e.g. price of cars decrease, demand and so supply of tires increases.

Factors affecting Supply3. Seller’s expectations, Expect input prices to fall in
future: increase supply today Expect price of good to rise in future: decrease
supply today 4. Number of sellers is more, market supply
increases5. Technology – new technology, new products, so S of
old products falls.6. Time Period – more time, higher supply7. Prices of inputs – or cost of production increases e.g.
wages, affects supply decreases.

Changes is Quantity Supplied vs. Change in Supply
1. Changes in Quantity supplied: also called movements along a given supply curve.Affected by changes in the price of the commodity only, ceteris paribus.
2. Change in Supply: or shift in the Supply curve.
Changes in other factors affecting supply, causes entire supply curve to shift upwards or downwards.

If ceteris paribus conditions do not exist, then the total supply curve may shift.E.g. change in technology, or taxes, etc.It can shift to the right (increase in supply) or to the left (decrease in supply).

Market Supply
• The sum total of all supply schedules of different sellers at each price, gives the Market Supply.
• Market Supply is the horizontal summation of individual sellers, at different prices.
S = Σs Market price is determined by Market Supply
and Market Demand curves.

Elasticity of Supply
• Elasticity of Supply is the responsiveness of quantity supplied to a change in the price, ceteris paribus.
• It is given by the formula: + es = ∆Qs. P
∆P QsUsually the elasticity of supply is a positive
number, showing a positive response of quantity supplied to a change in the price.

Types of S-elasticities
1. Elastic supply: Rate of increase in Qs > rate of increase in P. (es > 1)

2. Inelastic supply: Qs responds at a
rate lower than change in price.
(es < 1)
Goods needing more time for production, or low stocks have inelastic supply.
