In this lesson, students learn about what demand is and how the 6 determinants of demand affect demand.

The lesson begins with a 30 minute powerpoint that covers: 1. What demand is and how the demand curve works. 2. Difference between Demand and Quantity Demanded. 3. How the 6 determinants of demand affect the demand curve: a. Consumer Preferences b. Number of Consumers c. Consumer Income d. Price of Substitute Goods e. Price of Complimentary Goods f.
