Q2. Discuss the concept of supply. Also write a note on factors affecting supply along with suitable examples. 3+7

Concept of Supply

Supply refers to the quantity of a product or service that producers are willing and able to offer for sale at different price levels over a specific period. Unlike demand, which reflects consumer behavior, supply reflects producer behavior.

This happens because higher prices offer better profit margins, motivating producers to increase

It is used in consumer theory to analyze choices between different bundles when prices and income are not fixed.

Ans 6.

Marginal Productivity Theory of Wage Determination

The marginal productivity theory of wages states that in a competitive labor market, a worker is paid a wage equal to the value of their marginal product. This means the wage rate is determined by the additional contribution of one more unit of labor to total output. According to this theory, a rational employer will hire workers up to the point where the marginal revenue product (
