DEMAND ANALYSIS AND THEORY OF CONSUMER’S CHOICE Ccc “When desire is backed by willingness and ability to pay for it that is known as demand in economics” Here, important point in economics  is that the time element. That is desire should be satisfied within given period of time.
 * What is demand in an economics?

Law of demand All other things (# ink ) being constant if price of a commodity changes then the demand for that commodity also changes. Thus the price is the major determinant of demand So the demand function is: Dx= f(Px) ^Px - ^Qdx Rise in Px -leads to --fall in Qdx -and vice-versa Fall in Pxrise in Qdx If Px is bar--Qdx bar There is inverse or opposite relationship between price and quantity demanded of a commodity.

Whether the price is the only determinant of demand? Ans. NO. But price is the major of the determinant of demand Along with price there are many determinants of demand They are price of its close substitutes, income of a consumer, wealth, size of population, fashion, taste of a consumer for that commodity or services etc. Therefore new demand function is : Dx = f (Px, Py,____Pn, Y, W, A F Pz T etc ) Dx Demand for a commodity Px --Price of a commodity Py Price of a Y good which is close substitute for X good Y Money income of a consumer W ---Wealth of a consumer                    Diff Bet W and Y( # link) Al l the above factors plays important role in the determination of demand. But among these entire factors price plays very important role. But law of demand says all other things being constant and when price of a commodity changes ……. Here we trying to establish the relationship between price and the quantity demanded of a commodity. Now our equation of demand function is : Qdx = f (Px,/ Py, ………Pn, Y, W,F A T Zp etc. ) All these are determinants of demand            (#Link) Here Px is variable all other things are constant ( # link ) When demand changes due to change in price of that commodity that phenomenon is known as variation in demand whereas when demand changes due factors other than its price that is known as changes. Therefore law of demand is concerned with the phenomenon that is VARIATION IN DEMAND which accompanied by Rise and Fall or known as expansion  and contraction in demand  and not with CHANGE IN DEMAND which is accompanied by increased and decreased in demand   ( # Digramatic Representation)

There are different theories of demand put forwarded by different economists: 1* Marginal Utility Analysis OR Cardinal Utility Approach ……………by Alfred Marshall (year    ) 2*Indifference Curve Analysis OR Ordinal Utility Approach…by J R Hicks & R G D Allen (1939) 3*Revealed Preference Theory OR Behaviourist Ordinalist Approach…..by Paul Samuelson 4*Hick’s Logical Weak Ordering 	by Prof J R Hicks (1956)

CONSUMER’S SURPLUS (C S) *Introduction Then concept of consumers’ surplus is originally developed by prof. Dupit. Then it is propounded by Alfred Marshall. According to Marshall there are several low price goods ‘These goods are daily part of our consumption. These goods are indispensible in our day today life. These goods are daily part of our consumption. Consumer cannot deal his day without the consumption of such goods. According to Marshall in the event of non availability of such goods consumer is ready to pay much higher price than what he pays daily. He cannot remain without consumption of such goods. It shows consumer gets the satisfaction than what he pays normal times. It means he gets surplus satisfaction (extra) than he makes the payment for it. Because any rational consumer will pay the maximum price for any commodity which is exactly equal to the satisfaction derived from that commodity. Generally try to pay the price any commodity which is less than the satisfaction derived from it. He rarely pays the price which is greater than the satis faction derived from it. *Equation MUx   =  Px          at the most                  Marshall’s equilibrium Position MUx   >  PX         generally                      disequilibrium position MUx  <  Px         Rarely	disequilibrium CONSUMER’S SURPLUS = MAXIMUM PRICE READY TO PAY --- ACTUAL PRICE PAID FOR IT Scheduled of Consumer’s Surplus Units                MU             Maximum price ready to pay      Actual price Paid        Consumer’s Surplus 1                       1o                                10                                                 2                                    8 2                        8                                   8                                                  2                                    6 3                         6                                  6                                                  2                                    4 4                        4                                   4                                                 2                                     2 5                        2                                  2                                                  2                                     0 Max.Units     Tux                  Max price ready           Actual Price Paid                Total Consumer’s Surplus 5                     30                            30                                     10                                                  20     Consumer’s Surplus  in Money Terms (C.S.)
