What demand and supply 41.204.146.210 (talk) 19:06, 19 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Poor example

smooth curve

Q ( P ) = 3 P − 2 {\displaystyle Q(P)=3P^{-2}} seems imho to be a poor choice since it has Q decreasing as P increases. JdelaF (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 17:05, 26 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

This is entirely in line with the theory. What is more suspect is the supply curve, that price should increase with increasing supply despite economies of scale. This is brought up in the criticism section. KetchupSalt (talk) 12:25, 27 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Would You Please Restore the Content on "A positive feedback supply and demand model"

edit

I reverted Avatar317 's removed content on "A positive feedback supply and demand model" because I have found several good references on that model. Before I could add those references MrOllie undid my revision. MrOllie suggested me to post here, so that other editors can see and take necessary action accordingly.

I am listing the references for your consideration to restore the content.

Some examples of positive feedback is that popular products tend to become even more popular:

The problem here is that you are trying to write this content WP:BACKWARDS. Wikipedia articles should be written by reading and summarizing sources, and that's clearly NOT what you are trying to do here. For example, the source: "Gender and Bubbles in Experimental Markets with Positive and Negative Expectation Feedback" is about (from their abstract) "We investigate the effect of gender on the price deviation..." which is NOT a source that discusses a positive supply and demand model. ---Avatar317(talk) 20:42, 31 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Please also see (for your own edification) Correlation is not causation in stating "popular products tend to become even more popular" - this does NOT mean that this effect is occurring BECAUSE OF greater economic supply. Here you could also read WP:OR. ---Avatar317(talk) 20:45, 31 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Tax is another determinate of supply

edit

The article says nothing about taxation of suppliers affecting supply. 80.42.150.131 (talk) 10:12, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
