Equilibrium in Economics



S.No
Concept
Conditions
Explanation
1
Consumers Equilibrium
Single commodity

MUx =price
If  MUx > Px  consumer is in gains, he will increase consumption.

    MUx < Py   consumer is in loss, he will reduce consumption
2
Consumers Equilibrium


Two commodity (utility analysis)
MUX/Px= MUy/Py
If MUX/Px >  MUy/Py   - utility per rupee from Goodx is more than utility per rupee of Goody. So consumption of Goodx is increased and consumption of Goody is reduced..

MUX/Px <  MUy/Py utility per rupee from Goodx is less than utility per rupee of Goody. So consumption of Goodx is reduced and consumption of Goody is increased.

Consumers Equilibrium


Indifference curve approach
MRSxy =Px/Py
If MRSxy > Px/Py  - Consumer is willing to give up more but he has to give up less amount of other good.

MRSxy  < Px/Py  - Consumer is willing to give up less but he has to give up more amount of other good.
4
Producers Equilibrium
MC = MR
MC Must rise after intersecting MR
MC > MR adding more to cost. Profits are not maximum.

MC

5
Market Equilibrium
Quantity demanded equals to quantity supplied.
Qd > Qs     Excess Demand

Qd < Qs     Excess Supply
6
Equilibrium level of income ,output and employment
AS  =  AD
C+S = C+I

AS > AD unwanted unsold stock of goods. So output and employment is reduced.

AS < AD Reduction in stock with firm. So firms will increase output by increasing employment
7
Equilibrium level of income ,output and employment

S  =  I
S > I people are saving more and consuming less. Unwanted unsold stock of goods. So output and employment is reduced. Income will fall and saving will fall.

S < I people are saving less consuming more. Reduction in stock with firm. So firms will increase output by increasing employment. Income will increase savings will increase.
