In economics, the point at which the supply equals the demand is the equilibrium price. If the supply of a product is greater than the demand, there is a surplus and prices fall. If the supply is less than the demand, there is a shortage and prices rise. At what quantity will the prices stabilize? What is the equilibrium price for this product?
