...Exchange and Demand Individuals engage in four fundamental activities which reduce the burden of scarcity: exchange, production, specialization, and entrepreneurial activity. Markets and prices facilitate these activities and these activities form the basis of market activity which we study using supply and demand analysis. We will examine voluntary exchange along with a detailed development of the demand curve. We will also, see exactly how pure exchange reduces the burden of scarcity. I. Introduction We will see that the demand curve is the result of individuals making choices constrained by scarcity. Individuals are assumed to be rational, that is, to make choices which maximize their utility, where utility is defined as the want-satisfying ability of the goods consumed. A rational individual chooses from among the possible combinations of goods, that particular combination which maximizes her utility—that which makes her as well-off as possible. The possible combinations from which the individual can choose are limited because of scarcity. In a market economy the individual confronts scarcity in the form of prices, the fact that time is scarce and in the form of limited quantities of goods he or she owns which can be sold to buy other goods. Prices here are the prices of the goods the individual buys and sells, and they include not just prices of consumption goods but also wages, interest, rents, and profits. For most of us the primary good we sell is our labor services,...

... profitability continued to decline and was in fact worse than 1996. Richard had scheduled a meeting with his Vice Presidents for sales and operations and was wondering how to proceed. He had asked them to come prepared with data for the meeting. Background CRU is one of two national computer rental companies. It was started in 1990 and has seen its business grow rapidly. CRU purchases CPUs, monitors, printers and other peripherals and rents them out for long term leases as well as short term rentals. Duration of leases range from 1 day to 2 years in some cases. CRU’s 1996 revenues totaled about $15 million. The majority of CRU’s customers fit into one of the following categories: • large corporate accounts that want to stay on the cutting edge of technology and replace their machines every year and thus lease for that duration, • consulting firms and smaller business customers requiring a computer for the medium term, typically 2 to 4 months, • participants in trade shows who require a short term rental for the duration of the show. Customers expect short lead times in this business (typically one to two days) and place a high value on quick, accurate delivery and installation. All firms in the computer rental business worked hard to ensure quick response. The set of items that CRU carries in inventory is primarily driven by customer demand. CRU tries to be very customer sensitive and often purchases machines requested by good customers, even if they are...
