Instructions
* Drag the correct answer into all target fields
The  supply  of  a  thing,  in  the  phrase  'supply  and  demand',  is  the  amount  that  will  be  offered  for  sale  at  each  of  a  series  of  prices;  the  demand  is  the  amount  that  will  be  bought  at  each  of  a  series  of  prices.  The  principle  that  value  depends  on  supply  and  demand  means  that  in  the  case  of  nearly  every  commodity,  more  will  be  bought  if  the  price  is  lowered,  less  will  be  bought  if  the  price  is  .  Therefore  sellers,  if  they  wish  to  induce  buyers  to  take  more  of  a  commodity  than  they  are  already  doing,  must  reduce  its  price;  if  they  raise  its  price,  they  will  sell  less.  If  there  is  a  general  falling  off  in  demand  -  due,  say,  to  trade  depression  -  sellers  will  either  have  to    prices  or  put  less  on  the  ;  they  will  not  be  able  to  sell  the  same    at  the  same  price.  Similarly  with  supply.  At  a  certain  price  a  certain  amount  will  be  offered  for  sale,  at  a  higher  price  more  will  be  offered,  at  a  lower  price  less.  If  consumers  want  more,  they  must  offer  a  higher  price;  if  they  want  less,  they  will  probably  be  able  to  force  prices  down.  That  is  the  first  result  of  a  change  in  demand  or  supply.
