Question #66470

Explain the relationship between individual demand and market demand

Expert's answer

The market demand curve is made up of all the individual demand curves for a good. In general, the higher the price of an item, the less an individual consumer will buy. Microeconomics is concerned with smaller-scale individual consumer behavior. But since each consumer is different, one individual's behavior does not explain the entire market. Macroeconomics attempts to understand the total market in a broader sense.
